Having fun reading your posts.
Redsmom , feels good to be the proud momma, enjoy.
Beautiful weather here in South Mississippi, high 30's in the am, sunny -high today in the 70's.
Waiting to get and email for mine, heard for him about a week ago. Sent another care pkg. So far it takes about 25 days for him to get it.
He had a great time on his first port of call. Not sure thats the right term.
Keep warm and enjoy the day.
Guess I better prepare myself to come in 2nd also ladies since Matt is planning on getting married this year. When our other two sons got married it wasn't so bad because there was always another child at home but since Matt is our youngest this one might be a little more difficult to get used to. You want them to be independent but it sure is nice when you get that "Mom can you tell me how to ....." call. Makes you feel like they still need your advice.
Beautiful weather expected in Texas today. I am afraid that our winter may have passed before it really started. I have plants already budding out.
day! Oooops!
Morning! Reds- sounds like Colorado's winters! this morning it is already 51 degrees!! But more wind is in the forecast.
MNM- I can hear the same thing!! I love seeing that from Connie! I am getting used to being in 2nd place as well, now that B is married. We have only heard from him once since he went back to P'cola. We got a quick text that said "I miss my wife!" LOL We are just wondering how the medical stuff is going... We have heard from Jessi once as well... They have their own life now and it is hard letting go for all of us mommies! We are lucky, because we have had more practice, with B being 31 yrs old. :)
Hope you all have a great
