I don't often blog about things that are happening on TV, but I just can't bear it. It makes me so sad. I hate this administration. I hate this war. It breaks my heart that so many have to die. I want our troops to come home. I am a Navy brat, and I am very proud of that. I love this country, and I support our troops 100 percent. That doesn't mean that I have to support the war or our president. If the war was being fought on our own soil, people would be singing a different tune. It broke my heart to watch the View on wednesday. Not because I couldn't stand to listen to them fight, but because Eliz. just wasn't listening. It was about friendship, and she just couldn't understand. I saw the hurt on Rosie's face and it made me sad. I'm even more sad that she has decided to leave early. People suck.
Peace Out,
Mom

He amazes me every day

My big boy. I can't believe that he is 13. I can't believe that I'm the mother of a 13-year-old. I look at him and remember holding him for the first time. I really do remember it like it was yesterday. I used to hear mothers say things like that and just think how crazy they were. Now I know. He is everything I wanted. When he was born, everything that I ever wanted and dreamed for was transferred right over to him. I want him to dream big. He is so very handsome and charming. He is also so smart if he could stop looking at girls long enough to look at a book! One day, he'll know everything that I did to make sure he had the best chance possible. Everything that I am doing is all for him and his two brothers. They are the reason I aspire to greater things. It is an interesting time in your life when you realize that you've stopped trying to make your parents proud, and you are just hoping that you can make your children proud.
Peace Out,
Mom

I Had the Time of My Life

To celebrate my 33rd Birthday, my mom, my sister, some friends, and I went to the 20th anniversary showing of Dirty Dancing in the theater. It was so fantastic seeing it on the big screen again. It brought back so many memories of when I was thirteen!! My sister said, "I don't think I ever saw this in the theater!" I had to tell her that indeed, she had, because I took her when I was dating my first boyfriend so that I had an excuse to go to the movies. I would plant her firmly five rows ahead of us and Darren and I would kiss and grope our way through Baby's deflowering.
I'm sure that last night, our recital of half of the movie's lines did not annoy the movie goers around us at all! And when Johnny said, "Nobody puts Baby in a corner," the audience cheered! It was just so great! So, happy birthday to me and happy anniversary to Dirty Dancing!
Peace Out,
Mom
