    I used to wait with my heart in my throat, sweaty palms, and rising nausea for my 2 boys when they used to come home from school alone. The area we lived in then had a "central park" visible from every angle, with a bicycle path for the school children. Every lane ended at the park, so children never had to cross a road. There were also moms stationed along the route to make sure the little ones were safe and not being bullied or "stolen" It still got to me though!

    Well, we missed the bus this morning. The guy is trying to grow his hair longer and refuses a haircut. It's a real mess, so he spends waaaaay too much time trying to style it. By "style," I mean he completely soaks his head with water, then tries to slick the thick mop as closely to his head as possible. It really is a sight.

    Mavvy, you have a very important job as big brother ! There is a 13 year difference between our youngest and his brothers. They have made just wonderful mentors for him, as well as teased him like a good brother should :-)



    I fully expect a major rebellion on the part of Mrs. W's children. Yikes!

    kctiger, that is cute. It reminded me of another funny story...

    The little man was hanging out in the bathroom with me, while I was primping. I had found a small bug earlier and tossed it in the toilet. I saw him go over and look at it, but he didn't say anything. Later, as we were driving in the car, he said sympathetically

    "So, bugs come out of your butt, Mommy?"

    My grand daughter, that is 3, looked at a picture of herself when she was a baby and she said, " And I was a boy?"

    I am totally like Mrs. W! Paranoid that my kid will go missing. The oldest has disappeared suddenly on us twice (thank goodness it turned out ok) so that just fuelled it in me. It is the worst feeling ever to not be able to find them. It would kill me, so, there I am, walking them the 4 blocks to school and back everyday... :-/

    Really they don't... and Sarah may be doing her marathon for a long period of time.



    It's good practice for any predators though...



    Just sayin'...

    Haha... love your little man. And the younger they are, the wiser they are to make remarkable comments.



    But we all know why Sarah is doing her walk/run-thing, no?

    Who needs predators when you have rogue school busses?
