Wonderment

...(I just love making up words~wonderment!!!) Wondering is what I am up to today!! My mind is just wondering.

Wondering...why they say "full sun" when obviously it's not true:

It doesn't look like they'll make it!!!!

Wondering.....if my Double Knock-Out Roses that I've finally planted will make it thru the upcoming Texas summer heat:



Wondering....how many times my heart will hurt or break when Nolan is sad. upset, remorseful....



Nolan and I had a very long weekend preparing and hosting a garage sale. He was a real trooper. He has definitely inherited the salesman qualities from his dad and Popo!! He charmed all of our "customers"~actually selling a small Mickey Mouse children's cell phone to a lady for $1. Robert was gone on a 6 day motorcycle ride to the Florida Keys. When he made it home Sunday~Nolan wharted him to death to play some PS3. Dad finally conceded while all along the party-poopin' mom that I am, kept reminding them of Nolan's bedtime. Well, of course, he got to bed 30 minutes late - to my dismay - knowing full well how tired he was and how we'd pay for it today. I had to lay down the law and say that if I got any grief: whining, fitting, griping about anything the next day - no more PS3 for awhile. Well, about 30 - 1 hr after he got up - he already had his first warning. Robert had left early this morning for an appointment and returned home so that I could take him to work. Nolan told his dad that he'd already had a warning and that that was all he was gonna get. I didn't know what transpired after that - until Nolan got upset about something else before lunch and I had to tell him that there would be no more PS3 playing for the rest of the week. He was upset ~ and adding to that the fatigue ~ he had a major melt down. When I went to talk to him~ he had such a sorrowful, sad face!! He said that he broke a promise to his dad and he was truly sorry!!! Just the look on his face...... But, I know that I need to stick to my guns. He apologized for being "ugly, upset and hardheaded". He can't help the later~he was blessed w/ that from both parents before he was even born!!

Wondering.......how I can be so lucy to have such a wonderful, caring, loving, handsome, hard-working husband and a beautiful, sweet, sensitve, healthy, happy son!?!?! THANK YOU, LORD~ is all I can say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
