The story begins.....

Today I will turn in my last assignment of my first course in my master's program. Whew! There were several days and assignments that I wondered if I had lost my mind signing up for graduate school at my age! In August of 2010 I will complete my degree and graduate! I will be 60 years old. Just that accomplishment is a mile-stone for me. Someone said, "you'll be 60 on that date whether you go to graduate school or not, so you might as well go to graduate school." So-----I took the challenge, and here I am.

This weekend Wyatt's little family took their first roadtrip with the twins. They drove up from Houston on Friday so that they could attend her nephew's baptism on Saturday. They spent Sunday afternoon with us. Hayley and her family came for the afternoon, too. What joy!! The only thing that would have made it better would be if Beau's family and Dodge and Marc could have been here.

Without going into detail, the mom's and dad's experienced the joys of parenthood---especially what can happen when cousins get together. Silly boys---silly, silly boys.

Hayley's baby is due in two weeks. Luke and Grayson were both born before their due dates, so she's really hoping this one makes his appearance early, too. She was ready last week, but I guess he isn't quite ready yet.
