Thank you so much for sharing this
It officially brought chills to me. It is amazing how his voice had not been discovered before this. I love love love the reaction from the two "mean" judges. Wow.
LOL, thank you for sharing that :)
I just checked out my area and so far we've got worught iron chairs, a bed from Hoffen Koos and a lot of matresses.
I'm still laughing about Hoffen Koos.
LOL

How precious! I LOVE orange kitties. Enjoy!

My sis was 59, had tried to quit several times, but every time something stressful happened, she would smoke again. I can't give you specifics because she didn't want to hear my sermons, but Stage IV with no symptoms whatsoever except a lump in her neck. I wished she would have listened to me. I was putting my tree up today and cry every Christmas. Please don't let this happen to you. The doc said, "You have Stage IV so keep smoking, what's the difference?" I care about you. Please stop! There are no excuses. My sister would not accept my tough love, I hope you do. I don't have any idea who you are but I will beg you to stop. No excuses.Use lollipops, cinnamon sticks, ice cubes, Nicorette, something to keep your mouth busy but smoking. You'll feel better, smell better, look better. Treat yourself to a manicure or something each week you make it.
Thank you so much for sharing! sm
What a handsome boy he is!! Keep us posted on his continued good health.

Thanks for sharing this recipe
I'm going to visit my daughter at college soon so I plan on bringing a bunch of "supplies". She lives in a house with about 6 other girls this semester. I'm going to bake a bunch of these to bring also ! 
Great tip, thanks for sharing!
My hands often get cold too this time of year. I buy the little stretchy $1 gloves, cut off the fingertips and that helps as well. Happy Friday! 
That is so sweet. Thanks for sharing!
My teenage son did something like that, only it was a song that his favorite band (Good Charlotte if anyone is familiar with them) sang and I think it was called Thank You Mom. He sent it in an e-mail thanking me for all I had done for him while he was little and since he has gone off to college. I cried like a baby when I heard it. He also has a My Space page that we can access and under one section, it asks for his hero. He said something to the effect that now that he is out in the "real world" his hero is his dad. They used to fight like cats and dogs, so that was nice to see.
So, they do see what is going on, even if you don't think they do, and they do GET IT eventually.
Didn't know this either-thanks for sharing! nm
Wow. How uplifting! Thanks for sharing that! nm

Just sharing (bragging a little too LOL). I have been
I know a lot of people have asked about it on this board and I just want to say it is possible if you really, really want it, and I really, really do. I still have about 80 pounds to go to get to my ideal weight, but I am not stressing over a number, I just want to continue to lose at a consistent pace, and I am feeling sooo much better.
Would you mind sharing?
My mom used to always keep a copy of The Pill Book which had pics of medications as well as info about them. When my son and my niece were little, they would play doctor (REAL doctor, not the other kind! LOL) and use The Pill Book to prescribe things for each other.
Hilarious! Thank you for sharing.

Very good example of verbatim!!
That was really neat. Thanks for sharing.

them with us.
Sharing your past
I have an 18 yo son and a 16 yo daughter and this subject comes up occasionally. So far we haven't had to worry about their drinking or drugging, and it may have something to do with how both our pasts have been part of our teachings, age-appropriate, of course. We both come from alcoholic families though were blessed never to become alcoholic ourselves, but we've shared some of our expeirences from the standpoint of how they made our lives more complicated. We strive for simplicity in our family, and they can see how immoral behavior almost always makes for a more complicated life. At 18 and 16 they both just tasted wine for the first time (other than church) this Christmas and none of their friends drink, or even smoke. They know their grandmother died of emphysema.
They also know that my life changed drastically when their oldest brother was born 37 years ago when I was 18, and also that both their father and I have struggled hard all our lives because of not going to college. For every "but you came out okay" there's the answer that it could have been so much easier to get here had we made different choices, and making the right choices is what it's all about, isn't it?
Thanks everyone for sharing - still reading, lol. sm
She has had her "permit" and has been driving with me (and siblings, lol) for a year now. I have let her drive as much as possible because I too feel like one poster said about the more experience the more comfortable and responsible. My sister got killed in a car wreck at 21 so my DD is very aware of how panicky I am about letting her drive and myself letting go more than anything I think. She has been an excellent driver (while I am in the car that is). We do live in a little country town so she would not be allowed to drive into the big city with major traffic for a long while by herself. She has driven there 2-3 times with me and on her first trip I allowed her to drive to town, someone rear-ended us!! I laugh now though because she didn't know what to do at all. We were at a stop (red light), the lady hit us about the same time the light turned green, and DD proceeded to go with the greenlight! I was like hmm, what are you doing? She didn't realize we had been hit as she was proceeding to go when we got hit. It's funny after the fact because no one was hurt, just minor fender bender, but at least it was a learning experience for her and was not her fault.
My SIL's mother owns a Mexican restaurant close to us and will work around her schedule to allow her to work when she can so she does have the capacity of getting a job if she can ever have time to work. She has helped there temporarily on holidays a few times already. I think she will have some time this summer though as cheer practice is usually over at noon and she will just have to save up to pay her bills.
I kind of feel I should cover her with how hard she is working at school and activities, but don't want to "spoil" my child and not make her appreciate it and not learn responsibility so I want to make her be responsible for something. Of course, her 16-yo friend got a brand new, off the show room floor Mazda RX7. That is parental ignorance in my opinion and aint happening for my kids even if I could afford it. I can tell you one night they didn't get home from a game until 11:30 p.m. on a school night and I was livid. She was up until 1 a.m. studying for her semester exam the next day!! She is very dedicated, but that is ridiculous. Our local community college gives the entire top 10 a full paid scholarship so that is why she is encouraged to make the top 10 and pushing really hard towards this goal. She is already taking some college classes at school (combo classes) including A&P as she wants to be ultrasound tech and that is a tough class.
I have checked into ins, which is out the roof, but they also deduct points based on good grades, etc. so I want to at least make her partially pay for this so she will be encouraged not to speed, keep the grades up, etc. and realize it will all save her money by doing so.
Good tip though to let her drive home and to school. That is one thing we don't do as it is so routine she doesn't ask then and I don't think about it. You are definitely right, that parking lot is crazy and makes me never want to let my son drive when I see those teenage boys spinning out in the parking lot. I'll start letting her do that. Thanks again everyone!!

I use smugmug. There is a small yearly fee around $40), but I love the way it makes my pictures look and friends and family can order prints directly from my site. Check my page out at sharonwhaley.smugmug.com
Hooray for you for sharing with us
I am so glad that someone talks about accepting their childs sexuality. I know a few that I feel are gay but won't come out. I would love to tell them that I couldn't care less but don't know how to approach it. Think it is their decision to tell when ready. Should I just say nothing or do you have a suggestion?
That is sweet. Thanks for sharing with us :-) nm
Scary! Thanks for sharing because
now I'm going to be on high alert. Thank God you caught it when you did! BTW, which company are you talking about that might have been an inside job? I'm hoping it's not one I have an account with! :0)
very cool ! Thanks for sharing. nm

Thanks for sharing that, I'm seeing it this week with sm
my mom, sisters, and sister-in-law. I can't wait!!');>![](http://forum.mtstars.com/smileys/smirlove2.gif")
Thanks for sharing your recipe!
That was really nice and thoughtful of you. I can't wait to try it.
Thank You for Sharing That Info
that's a pretty significant side effect! my 6yo son has very mild asthma and is only on very occasional advair/qvar, usually only if he's sick, but wow, i had no idea about the singulair. i can imagine how upsetting and scary that must have been. glad he's and you all are ok now :)
I love that! Thanks for sharing.
I have such a soft spot for elephants.
thank you for sharing your story. sm
my son seems to have low self esteem for some reason too. he hardly ever gets in trouble. he has always stated he hates going to school and thinks its boring. i had him tested at school in second or third grade for the gifted class. he missed by a few points. he's always been very smart and catches onto things very easily.
again, thanks for sharing your story. i've read a few stories about gifted kids being diagnosed with some anxiety and put on medicine. which they didn't need the medicine, they just needed to be with other kids like themselves.
Thank you for sharing the rest of
the story. It just proves there are really decent people out there, but sometimes it is difficult to trust. I am the same way. I am so glad things worked out the way they did for you!
I love it. Thanks for sharing! nm
I loved this - thanks for sharing! NM

Great News!! Thanks for sharing!!
will keep you in my prayers.
Awsome information! Tx for sharing...
That is my worry regarding the ablation that it will not last. I'm only 36. I have hypercholesterolemia and apparently an elevated liver enzyme but a normal ultrasound of the liver (no fatty liver) thank goodness. I do not want to be on birth control pills as I have had trouble with migraines. I had a doctor tell me she would do the uterine ablation and place an IUD but I had an aunt that died of an infection from an IUD; go figure... we all have our stories, but you have shed some light on the uterine ablation.  Good luck with the hysty - I'm sure you'll find relief. Hopefully things will be better (been there/done that "shower thing") before menses as well... regular menses here though for now anyway/I'm 36.
Thank you so much for sharing your point of view (sm)
I really appreciate you sharing your story. His dad is in the picture but they are polar opposites. I do have a couple of questions I want to ask you but I better get back to work for now - I'll ask later and hopefully you will check back and won't mind answering. Thanks again!
Real sweetie, thx for sharing with us! nm
