I was gonna say something like that.. but her comment will do.<BR/><BR/>My kids are growing up faster than the weeds in my yard.<BR/><BR/>I took my son to his first day of his senior year in high school last week. Just a few days ago, I had taken him to kindergarten. How did that happen?Shelbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757079675613448834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19673259.post-45941956763179579532007-08-12T03:37:00.000-05:002007-08-12T03:37:00.000-05:00Like Empress Bee, I had to see this as a coming of...Like Empress Bee, I had to see this as a coming of age rather than a sports post to really appreciate it. <BR/>The season change up here is betokened by the early arrival of the migrating geese. They come here when the weather up way way north gets bad. Hard to imagine that this looks balmy, even to geese.landgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15656482044132959956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19673259.post-82066516974943545062007-08-11T14:14:00.000-05:002007-08-11T14:14:00.000-05:00They do seem to grow up when you aren't looking, d...They do seem to grow up when you aren't looking, don't they?<BR/><BR/>I still have a program from a high school football game I attended many eons ago. You're right about the pimply faced boys. I used to think they were all so hot. :)<BR/><BR/>I have a special sticky post up!Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13408633498198921799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19673259.post-61766022282484915902007-08-11T13:05:00.000-05:002007-08-11T13:05:00.000-05:00My son, Ten just finished playing flag football. ...My son, Ten just finished playing flag football. His dad thought it would be a good way for him to learn the game. (You can be sure that I, as the mother, will NEVER encourage him to play tackle). Now he has started soccer practice, and this week he will find out what fall ball team he is on. I've been wondering when do they decided on just ONE sport? But hearing the wistfulness from your Middle Son, I guess I will continue to enjoy the freedom that Ten's youth brings to him.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12994258976391146989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19673259.post-2278984313722978172007-08-11T12:09:00.000-05:002007-08-11T12:09:00.000-05:00Sometimes getting old can truly be a bummer and th...Sometimes getting old can truly be a bummer and that touch of wistfulness becomes more a pang of pain at times as you realize that there are so many things that you're leaving further and further behind. <BR/><BR/>But it's inevitable - kind of like that whole death and taxes thing that Ben Franklin used to talk about. <BR/><BR/>As to the tag I gave you, yep - you pick whatever or whoever you shouldn't say things around and then go from there. It can be a judge, it can be a prosecuting attorney, it can be the guy at the concession stand, it can be anybody in the whole wide world - your choice! I look forward to your post, take your time with it!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05698969349369789642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19673259.post-75861422358908778282007-08-11T10:33:00.000-05:002007-08-11T10:33:00.000-05:00It's all part of growing up.It's all part of growing up.Jean-Luc Picardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01689798190618944262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19673259.post-25438791722969487822007-08-11T10:13:00.000-05:002007-08-11T10:13:00.000-05:00well curmy at first i thought to myself, "self, oh...well curmy at first i thought to myself, "self, oh no, yet another sports thingy" but then! no! i see it is about teens and then i was fine. my cold sweat turned into a feel good moment. thanks...<BR/><BR/>smiles, bee<BR/><BR/>tyvcEmpress Bee (of the high sea)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08300140506585000934noreply@blogger.com
