Cinco de Mayo 2013

Happy 9th anniversary to my son Tom [43] and his lovely wife Jessica.  'Facebook' is great for wishing congratulations, birthday wishes and keeping up on family/friends happenings. And it's a wonderful way to see the latest pictures everyone posts.  Mack [17] was tagged modeling a tux for Men's Warehouse.  Very handsome...Mack! Beth is keeping us up to date on Aleena [3].
I took 'Peachy's  [canary] latest clutch of three eggs out of her nest, because for the sixth time, her eggs were way past due to hatch.  She seems to have noticed that the nest is empty.  She is making a lot of tweets and keeps looking into an empty nest. There was some indication that her eggs might be fertile this time. Elliot [male canary] took an interest in her before she laid this latest clutch. Sorry Peachy.
Mack has not given me any feedback about our July trip to Colorado to see colleges.  He will be a Senior at Groves High School in Birmingham, MI in Sept.  "Make it an awesome year, Mack"
Jessica signed up TJ for 3-4 soccer this spring.  If you need a good laugh, watch 3 year olds on the soccer field [notice I didn't say 'PLAY' soccer].  Coach Ben has his hands full just trying to get his team ON the field. And when he succeeds, he has his hands full keeping 5-7 toddlers on the correct field!  TJ is wonderful at kicking the ball and keeping his hands off the ball, but he thinks the open field is a great place to do somersaults! One boy wants to hold and keep the ball. Coaches son cries a lot [when coach can get him on the field]. Storm seems to be the youngest team, because the opposing team seems to know that they are supposed to kick the ball into 'their' goal.  Very funny.  Speaking of funny. I watched the first four episodes of 'THE BIG BANG THEORY" [TV Series 2007], laugh out loud funny!
Torin new all [upper and lower case] letters before he was two.  Now he is sounding out words and learning how to spell them.  PARK is his favorite. We watch him all time looking at signs and asking us what they say.  Torin was 3 on April 1st.
