6. Awesome
Your oldest son looks a lot like you and your daughter reminds me of someone from TV (can't quite place the name- from a show my Daughter watches).

And that youngest boy - looks like a handful!

9. That's not what I meant at all.
That's the first picture I've ever seen of your wife, so it's natural to comment on her.

but....

You're quite a handsome guy yourself, and I think you are both very lucky to have each other.


as for kitteh...

He started to plop down on my head, and I had to move him over.

He wouldn't be pushed over very far. It is his couch, after all. :eyes:

12. Was just giving you a hard time :)
And I know how cats are about their couch, ours think she owns it. Lay on it at your own risk, because she might just attack you (one more reason her name is Evil).

27. Your hair is getting so long!
It really suits you.

And I love that your daughter married a guy with a pony-tail. I did too.

Those are just lovely photos, SG.

29. Thank you!
I like it longer too.

I had lunch with my daughter and SIL a couple of weeks ago. As we were walking to the restaurant, a woman was walking near us, and told my SIL he had beautiful hair (he does). He was wearing a pigtail that day, like he did at their wedding.

30. Zodiak donated his to Locks of Love.
After he had a few ticks crawl up his hair out in the field, he just couldn't keep it long.

He assures me that when he finds a permanent position the hair is coming back.

It Cindy Brady curls down his back!

31. My BIL did that. He had very long hair too, for quite some time, then
decided to get it cut short. He also donated his to Locks of Love, and I was so proud of him for doing that!

34. It's such a noble gesture.
I love how even if the hair you donate isn't good enough quality for the wigs, then can still get money and use out of the hair by selling it to doll wig makers.

My husband decided to donate his hair before he actually did it. It was a very good way to get people to leave him alone about the length of his hair. Who is going to give someone grief about growing Cindy Brady curls for little girls with cancer?

actually i don't. in the south even though people disagree they tend to be polite to one another - one of the great things about this area. ;)

also, even the conservatives here are tired of bush/cheney.

Lelapin's my clone. (poor kid!) She's only 30 miles away at school, but the house gets so quiet and lonely when she's not here.

We're both lucky our daughters want to spend time with us. :hug:
