Topic: Family Affair

Today is my first son's 21st birthday.  Happy Birthday Ryan, my son.  He's going to Rick's home down under on el Cuatro de Julio for a semester.

My number 2 son graduates HS this year and is going to Prom tonight.  Taking my TownCar.  He is CLEAN & PRESSED in a badass tux with white jacket and two tone shoes.  His date looks real cute.

My daughter is cleaning up her room.  Lord have mercy! that's a bfd and JOE! is playing "So Many Roads," on my BIG box at about volume 6.

OH brother now Sean wants to wear my blues lid (fedora) with his tux...hmmm...

MuchLove
The great and powerful captain dad sir.

Re: Family Affair

Heartiest congratulations to the birthday boy reaching the real, official, old-fashioned age of majority - and to his proud and glowing parents, the Captain Dad Curmudgeon FDOL and the Divine Ms. Tia.

Prom night, tux, town car, it's all happening at Casa Jones - but I would also worry about a teenager voluntarily cleaning up their room, there's something brewing there....  wink

Big congrats also to the father of our 'extra-daughter'!  big_smile  Long life and good health, Günter.

RIP Iron Man

Re: Family Affair

Isn't it nice to see all that hard work and time you spent on raising those kids pay off?  So much work, but so worth it.

Re: Family Affair

I can see you and my husband are on the same page...  big_smile  MEN!!!  I'm thinking of getting him a puppy so she can follow him around.  I also dusted off his golf clubs, he needs to do some male bonding with happily married men who don't think like Tiger... His birthday's in June, that's it...golf lessons...thanks for the brainstorming on the gift.  smile

Re: Family Affair

And then of course there's a change-up pitch.  My brother-in-law found his only son dead in his bed yesterday morning.  He was 22 years old.

Rock on dude.  The Great Spirit will carry you now.

Re: Family Affair

that is very sad to hear. we get to work through the ups and downs of this life, but as you hinted at He will not give us more than we are able to bear. know that your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.

As corn through a goose, so are the days of our lives
