Career choices

Ridge and I stopped to watch the heavy trash operation on our way home from school today. As we drove off, "mom, I think I have decided what I want to do for my career..."

An impressive crescendo to the four years of Sonic.

Ridge's future

Ridge declared over the weekend that he was going to Sonic instead of college. He says, "that's what Daddy did." It would seem Saturday's trip to Sonic really made an impression. Tere told him, as he has before, that he worked there in high school. That caught his attention. I can just see these Slushyland illusions running through his head. Really, who could blame him? "Software Consultant?" "Enterprise Resource Planning?"  But "Slushy Maker, Car Hop?" That's living.

I love his view of the world.

Political Update

Sawyer: George Washiter and A Blinkin were the first presiders.

Big Baby

It's been a long time since I photographed my big baby sleeping. I thought tonight's display was noteworthy. He quit wearing a shirt at bedtime a few weeks ago...mid January, when everyone starts shedding layers. Now medieval weaponry is making its way to bed. My quirky little man. So much love.



Another little Ridge funny. This evening when we loaded up to go to the gym, he warned "you know, they don't have the specials anymore." There has been a generic "specials" banner outside the gym for a week or two and he has been eager to check out said specials. Specials are also the special activities at school like PE, music an art. So aware, that one. Always looking out for our best interests. Well, apparently the specials sign has only blown over so there is hope for us yet.
