One down, one to go

Spring breaks that is. A had her Spring break over the last week. She and some college schoolmates went to Kiawah Island in SC. One of their parents owns a portion of a house there and they spent the week just beach and doing nothing. It was a relaxing spring break for A. It is nice to have friends that have places like this.

She as also home Friday, through earlier tonight, now on back to school. She is finished with school on or about May 2 for the summer.

Next up, C's spring break that begins on Thursday at 5PM and lasts for a week and a half.

I got the coolest phone

call today about 11:30 this morning. LO (aka the King)from the Merry old Land of Oz decided to borrow his father's phone and called, unsupervised of course. We talked about L, we talked about the Cadet, and where his father and mother were; in general had a wonderful little conversation. I asked questions and L answered in good, complete sentences. For example:

me: how ya doing?
L: My brubber is sick?
me: Oh, really? What's wrong with him?
L: He's... He's got...I don't know, but he is sick.

And so it went. A pleasant little 3 minute conversation, and then just a quickly, he said goodbye and we hung up. Good future for that guy in sales.

On an email newsletter

that I subscribe, they included a link to the following video. It contains an tourist safari video of a life and death interaction between buffalo, lions and alligators. It is really interesting all that happens in this 8 minute video.



It is safe for young children to see this video. At least I thought it was cool enough to share.

On my last post

It was all about A last weekend. To prove it, here are some pictures of A, K and I at Parents weekend for her sorority:



This is one of A's roommates for next year (at the same function):



The happy Parent unit:



As A's present to C for her upcoming birthday, A got C tickets to the UNC/Florida State basketball game. To prove that she was there, here are a couple of pictures of them:






The game was on a Tuesday night, so C had to get special permission from us and the school to be out past curfew with someone other than her parents. No real problem, just some paperwork.

It is all about A

This weekend. She would have it no other way. Last night, her Sorority had an open house as part of their Parents Weekend Later today, we are going out to dinner with A and then on to a Cocktail put on by the Sorority. Then tomorrow AM there is a brunch, put on by the Sorority that we will attend. "Getting a tan from the light that she is basking..."
