Good Evening, Friends!
A short post for tonight in preparation for a longer post about Ray to come. That's a heart-breaker, so I need to sort some of my thoughts and have a good cry about it.
I am heading to bed early tonight. Getting up at 5:00 am to teach school sure takes a bite out of your social life. I went to a friends's home for some pizza and beer and was home before ten!
Today's random pic is from DC's 15th birthday. I think I have posted before about our family birthday tradition: any home cooked meal and dessert your heart desires. When the kid's were little, they requested individual dirt cakes for every classroom birthday party. Their birthdays are only two weeks apart, so I would make about 60 dirt cakes in that period every year. For his 15th birthday, DC requested a giant dirt cake. Yes, he is also wearing the traditional birthday crown! I am so lucky that DC has not reached the stage where he hates his mother. He tells me he loves me at least twice a day. Sigh...
Love to all and goodnight!
Rita
p.s.
I received a wonderful email from Michelle, who reported she was having difficulty posting comments. It has been so long since I have blogged, I'm afraid my settings might be funny. Has anyone had this problem?
Some never get to the place where they say they 'hate' their parents - so fingers crossed for you that this will be the case here.
ReplyDeleteI have no problems with posting responses.

I'm pretzeled! Thanks, Joy! I'm thinking it's the anonymous posts that are being moved to spam. I've had quite a few of those spam posts lately. The email notifications for those are what brought me home. :)
DeleteYes, my oldest did say she hated me. But my other two children never did. And my oldest "returned" after a couple rocky years. You'll be fine. I am sending you good thoughts.
