And it even starts now in high school!<br />I have 4 words for that: Over My Dead Body<br /><br />You always manage to remind me that the job of being a parent is never over. And that it might even get harder-- right now I'm busy keeping constant watch over them, but at least I have control. <br />Scary is when you let them fly on their own. <br /><br />I'm sure she'll return to school relaxed, tanned, and ready to get back to work.I'm Erin.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02626333490835483567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-31868451373312489182011-03-11T22:20:39.444-05:002011-03-11T22:20:39.444-05:00MS is headed to the beach tomorrow (Saturday) with...MS is headed to the beach tomorrow (Saturday) with some of his friends.

My hubby keeps a picture of me in his wallet from our wedding day over 16 years ago, and also uses it to show off to those who ask to see his wife. I think it's so sweet.

I was 20, on the verge of getting engaged, and my three best girlfriends and I went to Palm Springs, California and stayed in a cheap hotel... no alcohol, no drugs, no danger, just freedom, tanning, friendship! I, too, have a wonderful picture from that weekend and, awful 80s styles aside, I love the shear happiness on our faces! Tucked dear in my heart, for sure.<br /><br />And, I need to go to Italy.

I've no doubt this is what he sees when he looks at you--even in the morning with bed head, even when you're sick, always. I have a picture I took of my husband on our honeymoon. Cutoffs and no shirt, about 100 lbs lighter. But that's who I see when I look at him. I call it looking with the eyes of love. Congrats to you and your sweetheart.

I think my Hubs has a "photo" of me in his head too of days gone by. {sigh} <br /><br />One Spring Break we spent the week in Cabo as a family and right then and there I told my kiddies (high school age then) don't even think about asking to go there with friends in college. Uh, yeah. Not a good scene. <br /><br />Anyway, we've always spent/traveled together for spring break up until this year when different schedules are preventing it. Sad.<br /><br />I hope mine recharge also...while they're looking for gainful employment for the summer, that is. :)Carrie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01819737721881821638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-33885487127038058402011-03-10T12:00:06.034-05:002011-03-10T12:00:06.034-05:00I think they're happy memories, and I love tha...I think they're happy memories, and I love that your husband carries that picture around in his wallet still!
