This is an old, but never been posted picture that I love. It was taken immediately after Kirk's sixth birthday party. We had eight very active little soldiers attend the party and by the end of the two hours boot camp I was DONE! The hilarity of Jake's pose sent me into fits of laughter! What would we do without him!
Chad has been talking about going to Ireland for a while now (actually, since he found out through family history that he's more Irish than I am)and he actually bought the tickets. It hasn't really sunk in for me, yet. He even took me to get my passport, and I still thought he was just kidding around. Every one say a prayer for Tice, because she's coming to hang out with the kids!
Hey, Jack! We just wanted to let you know Kirk got your letter. As you can see, he opened it before he even took off his coat. I think your picture is perfect!
Just so the rest of you understand, Kirk and Jack had a heck of a time playing last week in Connecticut during Kirk's spring break. If you knew where one was, you knew the other was with him! It was a hard and sad day when they had to say "Goodbye." Thanks everyone, for making Spring Break fantabulous and where anxiously awaiting for all the cousins to come to Delaware in a few weeks!
"My tummy is very hungry, but my mouth is not."

I have the opposite problem.
Mouth:hungry
Tummy:not so much!

I had two weeks between one class ending and another beginning and I had mounds of things I wanted to get done. However, only a very few were accomplished. Why, you may ask? Because one of those "things to do" was go to our spanking new YMCA built just for me practically in my back yard. So, I went. I went several times. And then, I was so extremely sore that I could not move! My kids think it's extremely funny and tell me I'm old and need to take my time. Thus, I was slow moving and it took much energy to get anything else done. But, I will tread on, get it!
