Things to be happy about......
The dogs are BACK!!
My computer is fixed....or well on it's way
The art walk .....when you didn't see the "petitioners"
The stromboli at Tiberio's.....mmmmmm
The humidity is low.
I beat the bank this week and they can shove the overdraft fees!!
Having an obscene amount of change in your junk drawer.
FIVE dry months in our house.
Healthy kids.
A handful of REALLY GREAT friends!
The cheering at the Democratic Convention.
Toby tickets secured....if not yet paid for....
My first ripe tomato from the garden.
Ebay.......am compelled to have best dressed preschooler.
The dawn of a new day.

5. Sick in stomach due to backpack purchase and small boy child growing up.
6. GUILT (dogs, still no sign of the fuckers)
7. Bittersweet.......sweet boy wearing backpack and announcing to all within earshot that he WILL be crying.
8. YAY! Have a class to attend for license renewal.....getting all dolled up.....looking spiffy...
9. YIKES! Sis-in-law en route to watch my kids for my class is in car accident!!
10. Go to scene to help with her two girls.......everyone is ok, just shaken.
11. No class for me.......waah.....although today is also hubby's 35th b-day.....have 2 hours to plan party.

FIVE?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????
In 48 hours from now I will be the mother of a five year old. Where has the time gone??!! Where is my sweet boy?? Where is the baby that I first nursed, diapered, held, and adored??
I'll tell you where he is....he is sleeping soundly cuddled up to his daddy (of course). He is now able to make a pb&j almost unassisted, he is looking at me and saying "mommy, I don't want to suck on your boo-boo's" when I hug him to long. He is wiping his own butt most of the time, and he is WRITING HIS NAME!!
And he is adored.
I am not liking being the mother of a five year old already.
Five means outside influence.
Five means school.
Five means he is growing up.
Five means my sweet boy is becoming my little man.
Five is terrifying.
