I get in these bizarre sitch's - We have always gotten a card together, I don't want to make my D's birthday to look like a competition to D21 or WAW. What I decided to do is to next week just give her a card to let her know how special she is - give it to her on her own and nobody needs to know about it except for the two of us. I have done that before, so that is not out of the ordinary.

Looking forward to a nice night out with family and her a couple of her friends. She wants Mexican food so she can order a margarita - daddy's little girl \:\)

That sounds good. Focus on your D today and don't worry about WAW. Make the day special for D.

CBK,

My oldest child -- my daughter -- turned 21 last month. My baby, all grown up! \:\( While it makes me sad sometimes to think about just how FAST it's all happened, I am also incredibly blessed to have a new, different, more adult-to-adult relationship with her that I wouldn't trade for anything.

Blessings to your daughter,

Puppy

This board keeps me straight. All the other R books get me into "Fit it" mode. Hope you have a good time with D21!

CBK-see easy solution..some of these things that come up it's like you're panicking instead of thinking them through. What a great solution you came up with. I'm proud of you.

Just keep swimming, just keep swimming..

I'm trying to lock this Biooootch thread up..The title is depressing me..you ain't drowning no more old buddy..you keep up what your doing.

Drink a rita' for me

Thanks all - was getting a little down on myself and needed to think this stuff out. And go figure work getting in the way of my personal life... \:\)

I agree, I need to get rid of this thread title - knowing my luck, this one will go on for 16 pages...
