I should post something deep, but I'm on vacation and don't feel like it.
So, instead, here are more photographs. No, not of me. Never of me. I don't like pictures of me. The video I posted last week had my voice in it, which I also don't like much, but that's as much of me that I am comfortable putting out on the Internet.
Nope, these are more of my son. When I downloaded the pictures off of my camera the other day, I found this series that made me laugh (which is awful, because my son is crying in the last one).
I was trying to take my son's picture to get a nice Christmas portrait to give out to the grandparents, and at one point he picked up a stick off of the ground. He began to waive it around, and hit my camera. I then took the stick away, which caused him great distress. "My stick!" he cried, "My stiiiiiiiiiiick!" Then he dissolved into tears and turned on The Big Wet Puppy Dog Eyes.
Take one happy little boy....

Add one piece of debris still laying around from when Hurricane Ike blew through...

Allow the boy to practice his manual dexterity by swinging his stick at Mom's camera...

Have the Cruel and Heartless Mother take away the beloved stick and toss it aside...

And you get the biggest, saddest eyes ever seen.

Really, how could I be so cruel? No wonder he hates me.
Happy New Year to all of you, and may 2009 give you all the things you want and love, and may no one (such as me) come along and take them away from you!

We got your card and letter. We didn't send anything this year (long story, finances, yes we were that broke, blah.)
New year will be better right?
I loved your letter, laughed out loud, made my husband listen to me read it. I look forward to your letter every year. I mean it!
