My baby's growing up!

Boy am I glad I am not hormonal today.

I woke up this morning to my husband and William... in the bathroom...

Bill was helping William...

SHAVE!!

SHAVE!!!... PEOPLE!

HE'S ONLY 14 1/2!

But last night at dinner, (Will sits next to me at the table) I noticed a ton of hair all over his upper lip and chin and face.

Yes... I took my finger, licked it and tried to wipe the dirt off his face... and lo and behold... it wasn't dirt at all.

It was my manchild... with facial hair. Not peach fuzz... actual manly man facial hair.

I just stared at him... he smiled... I winked at him... and he gave me a hug. He knew what I was thinking.

He asked me if I was going to cry... and surprisingly... I said no.

My men have a little stomach bug this morning.

They keep saying it was something they ate at the Soccer park on Saturday... but I don't know.

Now they all act like the Bubonic plague hit us.

We had two earthquakes this morning.

Small... but I felt 'em.

Tonight, I am going to attend our Monthly Market Night in town. I will be selling my scarves and Pampered Chef.

And... I joined the Chamber of Commerce in our fair city on Friday afternoon!

I'm so excited!

We are going to do a ribbon cutting... a luncheon... and I'll be featured in our little newspaper!

I joined for Pampered Chef... not the scarves.

But wait 'til you see the AWESOME tree branch scarf hangers I designed and my hubby built for me! They are so beautiful!

I'll take pictures of them all set up tonight, and post them tomorrow.

I am on dry toast and peppermint tea making duty today.

I was supposed to have lunch with a friend today... but Sir Pukes A Lot needed me, and who am I so say no to puke!

I know a good time when I see it!

William's Football team made it into the CIF playoffs! We have to travel to Encino for a game on Friday night. Ugh! Encino! At least its a beautiful area. At least it's not Compton.

Johnny's soccer team plays for either 2nd or 3rd place tonight, and Alex's team is already going to Commissioners Cup. I'm happy... but... I was so looking forward to a break in sports for a bit before the crazy baseball season starts.

I am not a competitive person.

If the boys win.. lose... it's all the same to me.

Bill... on the other hand... well, that's a whole other story. If the team wins, he gives them all the credit... but if the team loses, he takes all the blame. He gets so hard on himself.

I guess that's the measure of a good man.

Wish them luck!

I'm outta here!
