Pannonian, thank you
And I really was dozy that morning. When I read it later, I heard what you were saying (before your reply), and believe me, even on first reading there was no offense taken whatsoever.

LOL, Nautikos!
Indeed. I did check out Nepal, but I'm not crazy about flying, and it's too far to walk or swim....

I agree, the choice should be theirs, but only after they have been sufficiently indoctrinated on the history of hockey! LOL! sam

The intended meaning of my comment seems to have got lost in the translation. I like the way you say it, irrespective of the topic. It was meant as a compliment. Never mind.

If I hadn't admired you already, I would certainly do so now! I think I would rather be a hermit somewhere in the hills of Nepal than commit to the raising af another batch of rug rats, no matter how much I loved them...

Ah, Justi, but I would love to be able to grant your wish.
You are a mother to so many who need you. You are more than welcome to share my boys with me - it is a privilege that you do so.

Today is the first day, JimmyA
And the Mommy stepped up, so she & my son are at the school right now with the boys. I'll hear about it all when they get back.

Thank you, UtahJay
Sharing love at home makes dealing with the rest of the world a little easier, I think.

Goes to prove everything happens for a reason, C.C.T.
Not accepting that job offer has put me in the postion to be able to help people who are far more important to me!

I hope it will keep me young, Pat_B,
but believe me, on certain days, after chasing rug rats around, my body feels very much older!!

Dear Lady
Your beautiful posts make me happy and sad at the same time. I want the presence of my sons. I would so love to see what their children would have looked like. So I share in yours for a blessing. Thank you.

I don't believe there is anything quite as warm as a hug from one of our own. The way your love for your family, including dogs, shines through each of your posts is like a little sunshine, warm and welcome.

Beautiful post. Your beautiful grandchildren are so fortunate to have so much love available to them, and in such a grand way. There has to be a best-selling book in all of that.

It is hard to believe that it is that time of the year...The first day at school had with it so many precious moments.

It sounds terrifying Adnohr, although I guess you love a challenge , Well better than waiting for a flight to nowhere on a chilly morning with your mascara smudged and a lump in your chest. Thinking when you were offered that last promotion.

All this will keep you young - and in touch with the cool slang.
Lucky you are to have each other! You've given me a smile for the day. :)
