*smooch* I'm proud of you.

Did you forget my phone number? Hello! Boyfriendless. Always available to babysit.

I polled Seth and Sam on the "Gabe Kaplan Look Alike" contest, and they voted a resounding 'Yes' when I asked them if Scott looked like Gabe. Which proved to be quite a coincidence since not 30 minutes before I saw this post, we saw Johnny T. on ET Tonight promoting his new movie and I told them how in love I was with "Vinnie Babarino" in high school. I, for one, think my handsome brother leans just a wee bit toward a Barry Manilow resemblance...

Boomer, you are not the only one who needs a babysitter...these four walls are closing in on me, I need a vacation...oh, wait, geez, I guess I AM getting a vacation...let's see, yes, that's right, it's coming right up here, say in a few days or so, yessir, I guess some of us are getting away for a few days...

And, lastly, to address your prayer request for Carter on the 22nd...if it is indeed the last birthday you spend without him, well, then, just about every prayer I've uttered every night for almost two years now will have been answered. And I will know YOUR Grandma had a hand in that.

Oh, Godson of mine, it's good to hear from you. Remember you have all of Dood's Brood cheering you on. Whenever I am in the Northridge area I drive by Carter's house hoping I might catch a glimpse of him outside. Seems like just yesterday I held him in the hospital. Keep up the fight. Kisses to Riley - he will be so much more comfortable after the surgery.
