Ponderings of today

So my 4 year old is sleeping in my bed tonight. Is he scared of something? No. Does he just love me to death and always want to be by my side? Again, No. Truth is his mom does not want to sleep alone, I hate when Tom is gone overnight. I just dont feel safe without him here.

I was going through my address book tonight(out of boredom i might add.) and I noticed that over half of my contacts have been crossed out. Most of them being long time girlfriends of my brother in law, friends that move every year, or relatives that I just dont keep in contact with. Im thinking its time for a new one. I got to see my cousin Shane tonight for about an hour or so. That was really nice. I didnt speak to him really growing up because he was so much older than me. Its different now, which makes it strange...but now that we are "adults" age dosent really matter. I found it really nice. But being around him really made me miss my aunt Char(his mother), She passed away a week after luke was born.

Now that my HS reunion is this year, I feel very blessed to have married my high school sweetheart. I went through all my "mementos" of High school and I am trying to scrapbook them. Tom is in almost all of my pictures. That makes it nice and It will make a wonderful story to tell my children with pictures. Truth be told...there are alot of people I dont really want to see at this reunion. But alas....tom wants to go, so we are going.

Kid stories of the day........
Lucas poured ground ginger all over my couch and then fingerpainted in it. Shortly after that Boston put a clothes pin onto his weiner and went screaming naked through the house for me to get it off...yet he never stopped running for me to catch him. This was a 10 minute process to remove the clothespin from his skin. Why would a kid do that??? Seriously!
