Thanks Nik! I'm trying to teach my mom by example, she doesn't get the unconditional love bit.

Opt, I didn't go to the baptism. The boys went and they all came home in great moods, how wonderful everything was, the boys just loved the babies and making them laugh. S7 got to participate in the service. So, I felt quite left out and a bit down and apparently no one even asked where I was! Shows how much of an impact I have made on that side of the family the past 17 years!

Berto, the game broke my heart. Halloween was a disaster. 15 minutes before we had to go out, S7 was getting dressed in his very complicated costume (the alien in the Family Fun magaize), I have him almost ready, and he has to go to the bathroom. He goes, we start dressing again, has to go again and throws up! So no trick or treating for him, but no problem, next night he is to have party at friends house., so I'll get pics of thim then. Next night, same thing, but no puking, but stomach upset and he just wants to wear his old powerranger costume. I spent two weeks on this costume, running to various stores to get supplies, and he didn't wear it! His stomach has been acting up a lot, I don't know if he is picking up on what is going on. H leaves on Wednesday, must tell them soon.
