I was inspired to create a blog by my children who have them and are so creative and insightful I tought I would give it a try...Here I will post my thoughts, pictures, and even possibly some minor teaching about life...

Hey I'm back...

Gosh...it has been so long...probably lost all my fans! hahaha


UPDATE!
My practice has been moved to the back burner. I kept one client but am seeing her more in a mentoring role; she is a single mom and she enjoys and appreciates the input of a "veteran" mom.
My boys, Randy 19 and Johnny 16, are touring the east coast with their band Trouble With Ferguson or TWF. You can check them out at www.troublewithferguson.com ...make sure to click around the site, its pretty neat. They toured the west coast in January and John, Nicole and I followed them around for a week ~ this was the most intense experience I have ever had. Touring consists of driving (4-9 hours per day), unload, set up, play, sell merchandise, tear down, load, Denny's, maybe get started driving toward the next city or venue or sleep a little and pick it up in the morning and start all over. There is no room for "shopping"...that sucked...hahaha! But watching my boys maturing daily before my eyes was and continues to be amazing.
Last week Nicole, Danyelle (Randy's girlfriend), Erin (a friend of Nicole's) and I drove to New Hampshire to surprise the boys...I felt like a 16 year old...it was great fun.
My granddaughter continues to be a highlight in my life and she has grabbed a hold of my heart in a way that I truly hadn't expected; it has also brought Serena (daughter-in-law) and I closer...she is amazed that Carly, when upset, will settle quickly in my arms...I think I am great grandma material...hahaha.
Nicole has applied to three Universities and hopes to get into to Ryerson for their photography program...pray that God leads her clearly and gives her peace in making such important decisions.
We you probably didn't expect such a narration but you got one anyway.
PICS FOR YOU TO ENJOY
