Griffin and Hayden have been great distractors from all of the sadness over the past month.3-year-old Hayden and I now have a new "favorite thing we do" when I tuck him into bed. Here's what happens...I get him under the covers, then he asks me to tell him a story. My stories are always about Hayden being in the middle of a sports game, where he makes the winning play. He loves it and beams from ear to ear.Hayden then wants to be the one to tell the story. He begins telling me he is playing a soccer game, where he scores the winning goal. I end his story by saying with disbelief, "NO WAAAAY!" And Hayden says, "Yes, way." Then, he's a football player, runs a touchdown, and I say, "No WAAAAY!" Hayden responds, "Yes, way." And so it goes, till we run out of sports.This happened again last night, and as I left his room, he said, "Love you, Momma." "NO WAAAAY!" I told him."Yes, way," he said with a grin.

Deb- I listen to your show every morning! I had no idea you had a blog until I went on WFMS.com!!
How cool!!
1st off--I'm sorry to hear about your dad. I balled my eyes way through that post and am still wiping the tears from my eyes. Thank you for sharing!
2nd- Since I am now a lurker on your blog-but you are soooo funny!
You know one day I was having a terrible day and then I turned on the radio that morning and you were talking about how you forgot your sbux coffee but already paid for it!! It's the little stories like that, that make me laugh and take the rest of my day easy! Life is too short to not make light of the things we do!!
Thanks again for all you do!
