Then I would shave and winter would officially be over to me.<br />Sigh- my poor, delusional, clueless, son...Maybe he'll figure it out when Mia is married and having her first baby- with someone other than him. Hey- at least I know he won't be a player- a stalker perhaps...a player? nope. ha ha.<br />Hope to see you tomorrow at yoga. <br />exes and ohs, lady!Lakshmi rocks mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03773249201911453419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2909148405345235236.post-76231835350829487972010-02-17T09:39:58.718-05:002010-02-17T09:39:58.718-05:00I read this and I think of Owen, asleep a few feet...I read this and I think of Owen, asleep a few feet away and how every day he has changed, he has grown and the tears spring to my eyes. <br />No. We can't stop it. There is no stopping it. Our babies grow up to become adults and we watch from the wings, our hearts beating so hard they threaten to jump out of our chests. We hold our hands out to warn them of the dangers, to try and protect them from the heartbreaks, to try and encourage them to run, to fly, to sing, to play, to learn. <br />We push them and hold them at the same time.<br />I love you Michelle. Just keep remembering what a great and wonderful grandmother you are going to be. Be comforted by the fact that you will get to watch all of this again and it will be the best thing you've ever done besides this- what you are doing now- so well.Ms. Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09776404747858099919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2909148405345235236.post-44635030494395884842010-02-17T09:06:18.413-05:002010-02-17T09:06:18.413-05:00No, it's not going to work, but I love you for...No, it's not going to work, but I love you for trying to keep the kids small. I also love the blue balls. I hate shaving my legs though. HATE IT. I do one leg one day, the other, another day.

When I was a young woman of 20, with a hint of a voice, I found a teacher by stepping almost accidentally into a local church choir. She turned out to be the teacher I needed; the inspiration to take me far beyond where I dreamed I would go. So it will be with your cello player. The teacher will come. The instrument will be played. As long as you keep music at the center, you're good.<br />Love,<br />Angie at Eat HereAngela Christensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00629271379912565894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2909148405345235236.post-81917166407847644662010-02-16T20:14:37.581-05:002010-02-16T20:14:37.581-05:00Oh my stars....I fear for you when they're gro...Oh my stars....I fear for you when they're grown.

I can't even imagine what it feels like to have kids growing growing growing. Love the little peeks into their personalities and lives. Love your writing.

Where on earth has the time gone????<br /><br />Also, about the shaving legs thing....I stopped shaving my legs back in 'No Shave November'...except I started the second week of October. And didn't shave in December, January....and over the weekend I shaved my left leg....still have really long hair on my right leg...I'll get to it soon enough, right?Rebeccahttp://landlock-mo.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2909148405345235236.post-78623381775395059592010-02-16T14:24:10.500-05:002010-02-16T14:24:10.500-05:00First, about the blue balls - they are so pretty, ...First, about the blue balls - they are so pretty, I would never take them down either.<br /><br />I did manage to take down my tree and reclaim my counters from christmas decor, but the wreaths are still hanging over the garage doors, and I laugh at them every day. Mr. Mel has to take them down, and he's in no particular hurry!<br /><br />Your kids are amazing, they are all so different, aren't they? The ghillie suit would be great for next Halloween, your son can be in charge of scaring the trick or treaters! I found the youtube video mesmerizing, and now I'll wonder where snipers could hide on my walks with the dog. <br /><br />Another wonderful post, and I'm still thinking about Valentines heart photos and crafts too, so you are not alone!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10114884092474969555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2909148405345235236.post-23806922068141789142010-02-16T14:19:03.949-05:002010-02-16T14:19:03.949-05:00i'm in no rush, yet i am. i wonder if i would ...i'm in no rush, yet i am. i wonder if i would just accept the holidays, and not hate them so, maybe i wouldn't be in a hurry for them to be over and i would feel more relaxed and time would slow. <br /><br />your kids sound amazing. and smart and sassy and complex. i love it.<br /><br />oh, we actually have the beginnings of a ghillie suit at our house. personally, i think it makes them look like sasquatch, but maybe that's the look they're going for, because, you know, NOBODY would notice if bigfoot were to run by. camouflage, indeed.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07896271627723253157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2909148405345235236.post-75695963851263079812010-02-16T13:48:34.841-05:002010-02-16T13:48:34.841-05:00My baby is turning four on Sunday, and I want to r...My baby is turning four on Sunday, and I want to rewind the clock.

A perfect balance to the more anal types like myself. <br /><br />The rest of the post made me laugh aloud.
