Random Stuff

Nothing new or spectacular to report. Everything is good here. Lots of rain lately, but it seems to be helping my sinus/allergy issues, so I'm not even that bothered by it.


Some quotes that make me happy...

“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.” – Ghandi

“In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life. It goes on.” – Robert Frost

“Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage.” – Anais Nin


The boys have two games added to their football schedule. It now looks like this:

10/8 5:00 PM @ Western

We hope to see you at a game!!!


And a couple of Madi stories...today was her 4 year checkup. Work was empty, so I took her with me until it was time for her appointment. She was really pretty good. We went to the doctor, where she was mad about having to sit in her underwear, so they gave her a paper gown, like you have at the ob/gyn's office, but her's had ZOO animals! Then she got her finger pricked, which ticked her off, and then to end the whole experience, she had to get three shots. It was quite an ordeal. She is 4 years old and weighs 43 pounds and is 39 inches tall. I have to look back, but I think she is 1 inch shorter than the boys were at the same age. She's in the 95th percentile for height and the 75th for weight!

And finally, tonight Mads was looking through an old photo album and found this picture of me...I asked her who it was, and she said it was her :) Kyle even finally agreed that she looks like me. This was taken in February 1977, so I would have been exactly the same age as Madi is right now. What do you think? :)
