Moo - he has three pair of these bibs - blue/gold for the Brewers...red/white for the Badgers...green/gold for the Packers.
I blame myself for putting him in Oshkosh B'Gosh bibs during his toddler years.

No one changes unless they want to. Not if you beg them. Not if you shame them. Not if you use reason, emotion, or tough love. There is only one thing that makes someone change: their own realization that they need to.

Thanks, lies.
Your son is adorable - he looks so damn huggable!

This guy:
He is 22 and dreams of being a writer. Well, he IS a writer... he dreams of being published.
And this guy (on the left)
He is 15 and about to finish his freshman year. He wants to join the Air Force and go to medical school. I'm trying to talk him into nursing or PT instead.

Love isn't what you say, it's what you do.

SAD - that is a pic that those boys should recreate in their later years!!
LH - your ds' shirt reminds me of that cupcake video with the kid saying "Linda Listen!"
HFFCC - my neighbor's son graduated 2 years ago with a PT degree. He is now in a program where he travels the country doing 12 week (I think) rotations at different facilities. He gets paid a great wage and is seeing the country doing it. Of course, I guess that argument might fall flat when in the AF he could see the world...
Love isn't what you say, it's what you do.

I am loving all these pics of beautiful children! Thank you all for sharing them.
DS, you are forever in my heart. Thank you for sharing your beautiful spirit with me. I will always try to live by the example you have set. I love you and miss you every day and am sorry you had to go so soon, it just doesn't seem fair.
