Well, I thought it was time that I was able to see the big, brown, beautiful eyes of my two boys again...so off to the barber's for a Spring haircut! Adam's only criteria was that he was able to spike his hair. He received his wish! He now thinks that he is COOL! He says that all he needs now is a new, cool jacket and some new, cool shoes to complete his look! I told him not to hold his breath!Alec, on the other hand, just wanted to look handsome for his current hearthrob, Izzy, a young girl in his class that he is gaga over! Isn't he to young for all this boy/girl stuff? He is only 8! I received the "baby question" the other night while stirring a pot of spaghetti with him. I think I handled it well and answered his questions without divulging to much information. I do not remember even thinking of such things at his age...but that was a different time!
Mom is doing well and continues to recuperate. She is now in a total knee class and goes to physical therapy 3 times a week. She has started in the regular part of the fitness center for some of her exercises and she states that she is enjoying it, but that she is tired after it is all done. She has driven once...was going to go through the garage door until I prompted her to please put the car in reverse and not drive in order to back out of the driveway!! Otherwise, she did well! We will be going to my nephew's birthday party over in Clearwater next weekend and then the following weekend is her expected date of permenant residence back in Tarpon Springs. That will make 3 months away and I know that she is anxious to see her friends again.
So hope the weekend is a lovely one for all and drop a note or comment...would love to hear from all of you!
Go Adam, go Adam, go Adam, go, go, go!!! Well, he did it!!! He has been working VERY hard for the last semester in school to make it to the stage to receive a Character Achievement Award and he did it this semester!!! He is pictured here with the principal receiving his medallion! He is SOOO proud!! Dad, Mom and brother, Alec, are proud too! Adam knew he was receiving the award last week when he brought home the letter, along with his Honor Roll report card, that stated the ceremony was to be tonight. Well, he was so excited that he was running around the corner of the lawn screaming, "Mom, I got it, I got it!!" He is currently sleeping with the medallion on his bedpost and the certificate tucked into the corner of a frame near his bed where he can see it when he lies on his side! What satisfaction! The other photo is him in all his glory! I think the part he loves the best though is the certificate for free ice cream in the cafeteria! The simple pleasures in life! Enjoy them all why you can!
