What a sweet little one Pumpkin is. I know what you mean about not feeling good unless all are home in the family. Enjoy each and every minute with them as the years do fly by all too fast as you know. Just think, though, when they go into their own nests and have grandchildren, what a joy that will be :) My brother had his kids young so he's a grandfather now for the past three years (he'll turn 50 next month). He says grandkids are the best. I agreed with him but told him with Matt being 17, I wasn't quite ready for them now :)<br><br>I hope you and Pumpkin enjoy your girl time :)<br><br>bettyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2750848569067701921.post-41766789593719787132006-07-10T13:48:00.000-07:002006-07-10T13:48:00.000-07:00I don't have children - but I do have a cat - ...I don't have children - but I do have a cat - does that count for anything? hee hee.

It's hard for them to understand when they are small because they depend on us so much. Sounds like a nice "girls" weekend.

ESPECIALLY THE SUMMER SHORTS. TO ME THEY LOOK LIKE HUGE FIVE YEAR OLDS. BUT ISN'T IT GREAT THAT THEY TAKE SUCH AN ACTIVE PART IN THEIR SON'S LIVES. WE ARE LUCKY TO HAVE THESE MEN.<br><br>OH HOW I REMEMBER THOSE WEEKENDS WHEN HUBBY AND SON WOULD GO CAMPING WITH THE SCOUTS. LAUREN AND I WOULD CUDDLE TOGETHER IN MY BED AND ORDER IN CHINESE FOOD AND WATCH MOVIES. IT WAS A LOT OF FUN. NOW THAT SHE IS A YOUNG WOMAN AND IN LOVE HER TIME IS SPENT WITH HER BOYFRIEND. MY MEN HARDLY GO CAMPING ANY MORE. GARY, JR. BECAME AN EAGLE SCOUT AND NOW IS INVOLVED WITH THE VENTURE CREW. THEY GO AWAY TOO, BUT SINCE HE IS AN ADULT (HE IS ALMOST 21) HE GETS HIS STUFF READY HIMSELF. AND HUBBY, STAYS HOME MORE OFTEN BECAUSE HE WORRIES ABOUT LEAVING ME ALONE.<br><br>HAVE YOUR BOYS BEEN TO TEN MILE RIVER?? MINE HAVE BEEN THERE MANY TIMES. PLUS GARY, JR. HAS DONE ALL OF THE HIGH ADVENTURE TRECKS. WHEN IT'S TIME FOR YOUR GUYS TO GO, IT'S SOMETHING THEY SHOULDN'T MISS.
