Bored

I've been home alone for almost a week. No husband or kids. Just little ol' me laying in bed recuperating with not a thing to do but read books, play with my iPad, text, sleep and watch loads of tv. I admit the first few days were quite nice, but I'm lonely now and I want my family back!

However, it has been really nice to spend lots of time with my mom and dad who have taken good care of me. They have carted me around town, fed me and spent a lot of time hanging out. My mom even cleaned my windows and stove. My dad cleaned off my back porch to give sweet Riley a cleaner place to sleep, and took me back to school shopping at the ripe old age of 34!

The only thing missing to make our "parental" time together was my sister, whom I miss terribly and made every family get together just better. Please let there really be a heaven and please let her be happy there.

My security monster

Most kids have a favorite blanket or stuffed animal they carry with them at all times and all places. My son has always been a little bit different. He has a security monster. Granny bought it for him when she came to visit last month, and when it disappeared, Mimi came to the rescue and bought the last one at Wal-Mart. So, Carter is off visiting the Arkansas clan with his best friend grasped firmly in his cute little paw. Love you C man!

Safe travels Pap!

Not many dads would brave a 14 hour car trip with an 8 and 4 year old to visit his mom and extended family at the annual Morris family reunion, but off he went. Alex told him that she wanted to go the whole way in 1 day. Her exacts words were, "dad, it can be either be 2 bad days or 1 horrible one. Let's just go for it!". I guess we'll have to wait and see! Safe travels my sweet family and hopefully i will have pics to post soon! V
