How much is that doggie in the window? I don't know, but I do know how much the window in the front of our house cost: $258.75 -- thanks to our youngest son, Jason, 7, who recently sent a baseball flying through the window. He was so scared that he took off running into the woods behind our house. Of course, that probably had something to do with our middle son David, 14, teasing Jason and telling him that he was in big trouble. I sent David out to get Jason, which he did. "It was an accident!" Jason was yelling as he walked into the yard. I told him I knew that it had been. After all, this is the same window David broke about five years ago with an errant baseball throw, too. That's why David took so much pleasure in seeing it happen to someone else. Our yard is not conducive to practicing baseball, yet you can take the baseball away from the boy, but you can't take the baseball OUT of the boy, or something like that. My two youngest sons love to play the game.
I was at Home Depot recently to find a new toilet handle (fun!) and ran into a fellow Mom of Boys named Val. Her oldest son is about Jason's age, and we started talking about what activities they were doing this summer to keep them busy. We discovered her oldest and Jason were both playing in the same baseball league. "What team?" she asked.
Hi ladies, In my daily routine and the boys' schedules, one of the things I like to do when I can is to watch the Ellen Show. I love her laid-back, clean sense of humor and think she is quite a natural comedian. I noticed on her website for the show that people can write in and let them know about favorite websites. I'd greatly appreciate it if you were to let them know about www.momsofboys.org -- I have the link posted below, or you can go to her site at www.ellen.warnerbrothers.com and click on the Be a Part of the Show page where the website question is way down near the end.
