My Babies

Well the times...they are a changing.....

I thought I would give a quick pre-holiday update:

John will be 18 next week...going off to college in the fall, leaving me...he is ready which is the most delightful part. He is an honor student and an honorable young man.

Jacquie will begin driving on a permit soon. She will be 16 in June. She had a month of Mono and Hepatitis in September, missed 4 weeks of school and still managed to pull off a straight A report card!

I don't know ...sometimes I wonder how we got this far. Remembering way back when we struck out the three of us trying to figure out how we were going to pull all of it off. Apparently we have.

Thanks for all the encouragement over the years....I am truly truly blessed.

Yep, it sure sounds like you have pulled it off Mary. You got a good career now, good man in your life and good kids. You've done really well for yourself and everyone in your life.

Well Jesus H. Christ. In that case...shoot me NOW.

But I do have the common decency to be delighted for Mary and her family!
