Life Changes

 Guest Blogger: Little Man I realize that I am the star of this blog, but since mom has been feeling a bit under the weather lately (I hear she is growing a baby...whatever that means), I thought I'd take a chance to help her out and update you on our wonderful day.  Today was a day I think mom and dad had just as much fun as I did.  This is rare.  I mean they really don't seem to get the wonder that is life.  I mean we have a whole bunch of rocks in our yard, and they are perfect to stick in your cheeks.  This is a blast.  Whenever I do this, instead of joining me, mom starts yelling, "No No No.  Get those rocks out of your mouth."  I really think if she tried it she'd have as much fun as me. Today though they joined me in my fun and only stopped the fun once.  I'll get to that part.

Since there has been so much change in our lives, I am more than a little behind in blogging.  Also, the last month of our residency as midwesterners was spent saying good bye to some pretty amazing friends.  So some things were just to hard to blog about.  This day was one of them.   One of the great things about moving so many times, is that I have wonderful amazing friends all over the country.  They are stretched from coast to coast.  We can travel across country and have lots of wonderful free places to stay on vacation.  They have a free place to stay if they want to visit us.   One of the terrible things about moving so many times, is that I have wonderful amazing friends all over the country   They are stretched from coast to coast.  In order to see my best friends I have to travel across country to see them.  None of my best friends live in the same city except two.  I don't get to call up my best gi...
