Seasons
I have always loved seasons...Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter. The changes, even if slight in southern California as well as the super n...
I am Michele.
Let’s face it…I’m the mom of a houseful of boys and this is what I look like most of the time. I’ve been blessed with much and deserving of none of it; but thankful for all of it. A husband who listens. Three boys who make me laugh, cry and pray. A sweet little house on a little street. I write so that someday my boys and their families will know that I was a real person who loved deeply, messed up greatly, forgave easily and most importantly, that I prayed unceasingly for each one of them. For now, though? I’m just ‘Mom, can you get me a sandwich?’ and that’s a pretty OK person to be. =0)
Michael. My husband. More often than not referred to as ‘that guy that I like so much’. Church worker. College professor. Loves God. Loves his boys. Loves me.
Matthew
The first born. Ambitious. Somewhat serious. Caring. The boy who made me a mother 28 years ago. Holder of both a Bachelor's and a Master's degree. Drum and Bugle Corps age-out, master bread baker and lover of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Trumpet player extraordinaire who recently moved to another continent (Haikou, China) to teach at a college music conservatory and continue his dream of playing professionally.
Alex
The blond haired, blue eyed, red bearded boy in the middle. At 25 years old, he has a constant twinkle in his eye, a mischievous spring to his step and loves all things fun. He works daily as an electrician for a construction firm, loves working out, the beach, and is a bit overly intense when it comes to Colorado sports teams...just ask him and he'll tell you. This boy of mine loves the art of ink and makes life an adventure.
Brian
The closer…or exclamation point (!) as we like to call him. College Junior who recently turned 20 and is studying abroad in Dublin, Ireland. The chattiest of the bunch without a shy bone in his whole body, he's majoring in Biology/Pre-Med and works weekends as a 2nd mate on a yacht. He dreams of korean bbq and weekends with no homework.
The Cats
Maggie and Mollie. The most perfect girlie cats ever.
The Dog
And our newest addition...Buddy the dog. Yes, another boy to add to the mix.
About Me
Visitors
Boys! The bag on the head reminds me of what happened in school today...I have a kindergartener whose personality is larger than life. Today they were cleaning up at the end of the day. I hear shrieking from one of the girls and I looked over to see a pair of gym shoes and ankles sticking out from the very tall garbage bin in our room. This kindergarten boy went in head first with his scraps and was doing a handstand inside the trash can (which had snack garbage, dirty tissues, paper, and more). He was stuck and could not work himself out of the opening. I should have taken a picture for his mother before I lifted him up and hauled him out. I may have to tell this parent when we conference this week that it could be a looooong road ahead!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see Alex was wearing his seat belt for a change.
