How can a person become a well rounded and empathetic being if they haven't experienced the abashed and blush-ful feelings that come from a parental figure saying embarrassing things about one's self? Why, if your mum hasn't been embarrassing for you, at least once in awhile, then she isn't doing her job properly! I, personally, do a bang-up job of being embarrassing for my daughter. I'm a great mother in that aspect.Cape Coophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15304856888463799939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1779328319254618990.post-58004176900705920782012-08-15T07:50:41.190-04:002012-08-15T07:50:41.190-04:00haha...isn't your baby going to say "ma! ...haha...isn't your baby going to say "ma! you're embarrassing me!" if she ever reads these stories about her blossoming romances?magicbeanbuyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03529892924273136182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1779328319254618990.post-76280626535525660592012-06-18T08:41:51.362-04:002012-06-18T08:41:51.362-04:00he sounds like a really nice guy.....dang, why do ...he sounds like a really nice guy.....dang, why do our babies have to grow up so quickly?! hate it!Tanya Breesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01949602989774270159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1779328319254618990.post-53040754119805791932012-06-05T21:14:24.698-04:002012-06-05T21:14:24.698-04:00Very true Ms. Shypoke.Very true Ms. Shypoke.Greener Pastures--A City Girl Goes Countryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05448845964131250749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1779328319254618990.post-76970035723311375962012-06-04T12:37:34.171-04:002012-06-04T12:37:34.171-04:00At a certain point, you have to just hope that all...At a certain point, you have to just hope that all your good advice sank in. lol.

Two more years of high school. When we couldn't sell the house in Virginia, I was getting worried we wouldn't get here in time for her to make connections and friends. <br /><br />I'm so sorry about your friend. That's really sad. Just like that. We need to always remember to live life.Greener Pastures--A City Girl Goes Countryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05448845964131250749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1779328319254618990.post-14299733937721211562012-05-31T00:19:25.827-04:002012-05-31T00:19:25.827-04:00Sounds like a good kid.

She was one of my riding friends, camped with us occasionally and one of the most happy, blissful people I knew. This past December a mutual friend of ours called and told me she just heard Renee had passed away. She had been sick with a cold, taking meds ... nothing out of the ordinary and then she collapsed. LifeFlight was called but she didn't make it. Pulmonary embolism (blood clot). She was 48 yrs old. Her son was graduating the same day as mine. Her daughter is getting married this month.
