I am a bit Clostraphobic (sp?) and it was not a fun trip for me riding the elevator down into the earth and walking even further. Plus, they pointed out these narrow spaces where the original cave explorers had wiggled through on their belly.

Yeah, sometimes we do miss those little boys who used to lay their blonde heads on our shoulders, but it's such a wonderful blessing to have them grow into strong independent young men. Enjoy your boys today.

He looks to DAD for affirmation and praise, and manliness and all that is tools. <BR/><BR/>Ben wrote me off as "worst-case-scenerio mom" long ago.<BR/><BR/>Wish someone had whispered in my ear during those clingy years that the day would too quickly come when he would spread his wings and fly.

Remember when he bowled for the first time? He would turn around and check my face instead of watching the ball hit the pins. No amount of telling Ben to turn around and look would help. He was one clingy baby. Now he is super independent.joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11456465195258073699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5618278694134380990.post-15160831540677841692008-03-10T18:46:00.000-05:002008-03-10T18:46:00.000-05:00Yes, I know "FEEDETH" is in the King James Bible, ...Yes, I know "FEEDETH" is in the King James Bible, dear.
