Things I would like to teach my Son

Now that the day is rapidly approaching that I get the chance to meet my little buddy, I am thinking about things I want him to learn from his Dad and I. Some thing I hope that he learns:

• Take risks.... You never know how something will go until you try it.


• If you love someone, let them know. They may not realize it unless you tell them


• Celebrate every day, because it is a great gift.


• Just because something seems impossible, doesn't mean it is.


• Don't sweat the small stuff and don't pet the sweaty stuff.


• Live life to the fullest, and always try things you want to do at least once. (I have yet to try my hand at mechanical bull riding.)


• Don't be afraid to be who you are.


• Jar Jar Binks does not exist. Han shot first.


• Always take the time to laugh. Be silly, sing loudly, dance wildly, as though no one notices.


• When you find someone and you marry them, slow dancing in the kitchen for no reason is perfectly acceptable. There doesn't even need to be music.

I know he is a great kid, and he will be an amazing man. All it takes is one look at Mr. and I can tell that.

Springtime in Boston....

I love springtime in Boston. When that first 65 degree day comes everyone's mood begins to lift. That is what this week represents. Sure there is some rain, but yesterday it was almost 70, and I was able to drive home with the windows down and the radio up. It was definately lovely. Hopefully this means gorgeous flowers are right around the corner! Happy spring everyone!
