Home, at last!


My son is home and we are all smiles! Those of you with sons and daughters will probably understand...boys make different noises than girls do. I missed his noises. His laugh, him talking to himself, to his video game, to anyone listening, his piano and guitar playing...hearing him sing. I was cooking dinner and I heard, "SWWWWWWEEET!" and then in the next breath he used a different foreign language than the one we are learning to yell, "What is this?!" But he alters his voice to say it. Very funny and endearing. Obviously about a video game, but just the sounds of my boy. When he is talking 90 miles an hour and at a decibel I am not used to because I don't live with a bunch of teenagers in a dorm...I remind myself...it's only for a short while. He's growing up and changing so much.

Like his hair? He said he wants to enjoy it while he has it since it runs in his blood to NOT have it. LOL. I agree. Go for it Prince! Not to mention that it's a "chick magnet" ...his words. Should I be worried? Well, I would, except in the next breath I fall over from the SMELL of his breath...meaning he hasn't brushed his teeth yet at noon! No worries, yet. I don't know any girl who could get past that bad breath smell. I tell him, "You've got breath only a Mother could love...and no matter the depth of my love for you...I don't love your breath right now!" I'm just teasing. He's on vacation and thinks the rules have slacked. Notice...he "thinks" that. He'll learn soon enough that that is not a rule that one ever slacks on!

He leaves soon and I'll be back "if the crick don't rise and Lawd willin"...trying to soak up this time. You understand, I know.

Oh.My.Word.

I'm telling you...the enemy is trying to steal my joy!

As soon as my computer is up and running then... our internet dies.

I think we are back on track. Mercy. I may have to do a marathon of posts just to put up all the stuff I've been wanting to.

Hang in there! Gotta get started on home schooling and then...I'll be back!

Here's a picture I've been wanting to post...while you wait.

We miss you Auntie!

And life goes on...

Thanks to my AMAZING, AWESOME, SUPER INTELLIGENT, (shall I go on?) Husband, my computer is alive and kicking. Not back to full glory, yet, since we have to re-download everything...but well on its way.

Thanks for hanging in there and checking on me. I have tons to tell you if I can remember and find the time. HRH, has posts to put up.

We are coming! :)

what a crazy time!

My brand new computer died. Literally, died. Did you know that international warranty's are not what they seem?

Neither here nor there. My computer died two weeks ago without warning or provocation. I guess it was a hard(ware) attack. LOL.

My husband has been working with a tech guy via skype to repair it, but it is not as easily done as the guy thought.

So...I'm computer-less...which is frustrating to say the least.

HRH, has posts to go up and I don't have access. This is the King's computer and he is using it when I have time to. I guess I'll be up at 4:30 to get some stuff done. We're trying to share, but it's really inconvenient.

Just wanted you to know I'm not dead. Actually, alive and kicking. Crazy busy with home school and a national holiday, not to mention a million and one other things. The Prince comes home for a break this week. WOOHOO! and we've been up to our eyeballs in paperwork (which was all on my computer) regarding the additions to our family that I have yet to give you details about.

SO MUCH TO SAY!!!!

God is good. All the time. We've much to share. Keep checking on me and say a prayer for my computer. Ug. It's awful to be tied to the ones you love via computer and then be computer-less.

Love you.
Praying for you to be marinated in grace and peace! Hmmm...what a thought.
