I told Tommy about this thread and what I'd said about him and he responded:

Ah ... my man's a poet of few words!

just a quick note to say I'll miss you. My family and I are leaving at first light for my husband's hometown (Amarillo, Tx and that's a LONG way from Houston - 14 hours, still in same state). His grandmother has been taken to hospice and won't be with us much longer. My hope is to have him there before she is gone. So, with all there is to do, and all the family to see, and three boys and a dog on a long road trip, I will miss this place very much over the next week or so, don't know how long we'll be gone.
(I will try to comandeer my sister-in-laws computer if I get the chance) Look forward to catching up in the near future. |
My thoughts and prayers will also be with you. Have a safe journey and use the time wisely to touch base with those who will not be here much longer. I found that is the hardest thing to live with, not trying harder when I had the chance.
God bless you and yours,
Rous

Andis (or Andes depending) mints are candies they give you after a brunchfast at Cracker Barrel. (Anybody who has lived in the mid-west knows what Cracker Barrel is) Yum! Anyhoo, they are just tiny little mint/chocolate flavored things. My favorite candy in the whole word - I could put on 20 pounds just eating them.

Ok ok ok...I'm very late.
As usual. 
Anyhoo, on the protective father issue:
I had the public official dad (Pfft. Still do!), DA specifially. Man, that guy could come up with the harshest punishments if you asked him to. I really have no desire to know what he said to my dates, all I know is that whatever it was, it managed to have the desired effect 99.9% percent of the time. It also helps that I know a few tricks of the trade as well!

Babies!
How old were you/are you when you had your first baby?
(If non, how old planning on being?)
How old when had the last one?
If you had a C section, can you descibe it?
Broody Mora's wanna know!

You must be broody! I don't know when I plan on having children, but it will be after I finish Uni, and since I'll be 25 by then, I guess sometime after that! I get rid of my broodiness by nannying, which I love. I first started nannying when I was 17 and in highschool, and it was for 5 children between the ages of 9 years and 9 months. It was only for a week while the parents were on holiday in Hawaii, but with school on top of it all...lets just say I was really busy!  I love children though, and I've been nannying ever since...
I don't know about C-sections now, but 20 years ago they weren't as safe. I think a lot of people prefer them now, but it is major surgery, and takes longer to recover from. However, since I have never actually given birth, this is all just stuff I've heard. |

Why the sudden interest? Can we look forward to some mini-Moras (or crotch-droppings, as you once called them)?
Anyhoo, I was 28 when I had my daughter. By that time I had been desperately wanting a baby for about 2-3 years, so she was very welcome, indeed. It wasn´t that I had a hard time getting pregnant -- it was just that my hubby wasn´t ready for a child when I was. So I had to wait...*sigh*
However, now I´m happy we waited. For me, it was the right moment in my life to have a child. I´m glad we waited.
Now, I don´t want to wait for the second baby! Oh, I want another one! It´s so much fun, being a mum. Well, a lot of work too, of course, but I find it to be very rewarding. I didn´t think it would be so much fun, though, before we became parents. When I was younger I was convinced I would never have any kids -- didn´t want any. Wasn´t too fond of the little monsters!
I didn´t have a C section, so don´t ask me about that. |
