Mother/Son Date

Will and I spent an hour together is afternoon, and OH BOY (!) can that kid talk! He has always been the most quiet of our kids, but you get him one and one and his mouth can barely keep up with his thoughts. It was a completely enjoyable experience. I should do it again...soon.

I had to put these pictures in, so I could practice doing it, but I love the "spy" kids. I am sure this is what 007's family would look like. If only he were so LUCKY!

State of the Union?

I didn't really feel like I needed to watch the State of the Union address tonight because I can pretty much tell you the state it's already in. Words like "sadly optimistic" and "really this is a recovery" come to my state of mind. Actually, I tuned in to see what a slightly delusion and self-indulgent person might say (sorry...watched American Idol and sometimes Simon's critiques ring so true). What I would like to say here, I shouldn't because I am not a terrorist, which means I wouldn't enjoy the no torture-let's be kind to the enemy rule; plus they are probably "wire-tapping" this, since we don't want to impose or invade the terrorist communications (it would be rude), we'll do it to the real enemy...Conservatives. But, I digress. All I can say is the best thing I heard all night was the response from the Virginia Governor...can he just be our President now?

Hello!

Well this is my first venture in the blogging world. I guess you could say I am a virgin blogger, so please be kind and understanding of my naivete. Hopefully, I will have weekly updates, witty comments and great links, but let's be realistic: I might post when I feel like it (monthly); be witty when it's easy to spell and not past 10 pm; and what great links (my son's favorite Bakugan website). Yet I am optimistic because it is still January, and it's not too late to make goals that are complete unattainable and only slightly realistic, but hey, this might be the one resolution that makes it an entire year. However, I should warn you the only resolution I know that lasted all year was my husband's goal NOT to exercise, so why set a goal that isn't attainable? Duh!
