How to tell your husband loves you:

Mine does nice things for me when I am sick,

like bring me treats...

Yummy!

(p.s.  those things on the cupcakes are Rings! Oh yes he did!)

First Day

My precious, precious

My sweet, sweet treasure

My special boy

He is gone today

to kindergarten

His warm brown eyes 

so like his Father's

are sparkling and bright

He stands up tall 

smiling proudly

He is a tiny bit nervous

I see it

in the way he holds his Daddy's hand

while they stand for me to take their picture

But mostly he is interested

to find out what it will be like

I hold back all my reminders

about listening and choosing the right

Smile my biggest smile 

and wave and wave and wave

My special boy

My treasure

I hope the world is good to him

He will be so good for the world.  

Ten Years

It has been ten years since high school!

Our indomitable Grad President now returning as 10 Year Reunion Planner asked us all to submit a write up and some photos for our reunion book. 

 How many photos?

Five!

People, here's some simple math calculations,

that's one photo for every two years!

Ya, I know!

Try that once, sum up 10 years of your life in 5 photos.

I gave it my best shot and here they are...

Because this is one of like two 

somewhat decent shots of me in five whole years...

Until this...

I think having babies was good for me physically...it took a little chub out of my cheeks.

A little get away.  

I am secretly planning another one for my Mr to celebrate when he finishes school.  

Shhhhh, don't tell. 

If you think this is nice visit my friend here.

I took this one all by my selfie, isn't that a beeuuteeful sofa?

There were so many good times in 10 years, five just isn't enough.
