wknd wrap-up

chilly wknd here at la ranchera--mid-60s and rain and wind.

my son has learned to wink at me. with one eye. this is going to be a problem b/c i melt and give in. As in, "Mommy! Can I have another piece of boo (blue)-berry bread?" *WINK* *WINK*

Come on, I dare you to say no to that!

we were going to go-wait for it-freezer shopping (oh can you stand the excitement??) but decided to stay in and family nap and cook on a rainy windy sunday. we need to do this more often--where we don't actually WORK on a Sunday, esp during the school year, if that is possible. oh what a blessed blessed day that was!

did you hear about the tornados in northern Ohio this wknd? one that ripped to shreds the Valedictorian's house and killed his father who ran upstairs to grab a flashlight and didn't make it to the basement. his family didn't make it to the basement either. they were trapped in the stairwell on their way down. that was Saturday night. and the Valedictorian was going to be giving his speech that next morning. how is that fair. at all? please oh please, whatever college that Valedictorian is going to, I hope you give him a free ride if he doesn't have one already. what a memory to have lodged in your head at such a tender age.
