my visionary
*
behind the scenes is his spotlight ~
where he brings his visions to life…
where his mind can run wild
amongst
a vast realm of possibilities
and
dreams ~
bringing impossibilities to light…
*
*
this would be my boy
*
*
one more step
~
~
it seems like only yesterday
when
i brought him into this world
~ now ~
he is one step closer
to conquering it.
~
~
once upon a time…
*
i remember when Power Rangers ruled the world
and
light sabers were the toy of choice ~
*
Batman socks were not allowed to be washed
and
Darth Vader capes had to be worn.
*
hours were spent on the couch watching Star Wars
~ every movie ~
chapters one through six
and
we could never get enough of a T-Rex
eating everything in its midst.
*
~ now ~
it is about fantasy football,
college entrance exams
and
apps to download,
making some bucks
to buy some stuff
and
typing texts to friends upon friends.
*
*
yesterday,
he was my little baby ~
almost 9 lbs of sweet and cuddly coos
with barely a hair on his head,
chunky little cheeks
and
two eyes full of baby blue.
*
today,
he is 5′-11″,
long and lean with an athlete’s build,
two eyes of hazel,
muscular, hairy legs
and
in possession of some serious cooking skills.
*
I keep wondering when and how this all happened,
17 years
have come and gone,
but
what I do know for certain
is I could not be more proud,
of my baby boy
and
what he has become….
*
once upon a very long time……
*
in the beginning…
*
in cooking form – fave shorts, shirt, socks…
*
Mr. Professional….
*
Happy Birthday Peyton!

Wise Words on a Wednesday

words to a blubbering mom before getting on the train ~~~ to return to school
Weekly Pet Challenge – I swear…I did not do it…
*
I went upstairs to do some cleaning and when I came down….
*
“Ahem….Sydnee Pee…what did you do?”
*
“Sydnee Pee…What is this? What did you do…?”
*
“I swear, I did not do it… I simply did not or would ever do such a thing…”
*
When one looks at Sydnee Pee, they see this sweet and adorable little Princess – an angel with big ears and hair…… Ok, I agree, she is all of that stuff, but she does have her devilish moments. Tearing apart tissue is not one of Pee’s typical character traits, however…
on this particular day, she did just that…
or at least I think she did…
of course, she said she did not…
so
I suppose I should believe her…….right?

a follow up to: “to or not to…”
*
*
yes,
i know i have y’all hangin’ ~
wonderin’ what was IT ~
what could IT have been…
…
after hours (actually 15 minutes) of debate and spreadsheets,
calculations and picking mom’s brain,
it seems it was an extra-large with two toppings ~
spicy Italian sausage
and
green peppers
…
…
there was,
however,
a mystery…
a mystery still weighing heavily on my son’s mind…
a mystery sauce
with
origins unknown…
…
oh dear,
i can only hope and pray it was tossed!
*
*
yes….actual text communication…
*
i am still waiting on an update…

ps: PLEASE – I BEG YOU – Pretend you did not see a certain nickname…PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!
