And as the story goes, I followed doctor's orders and took that prescribed bath, with a glass of wine, and met her at 'the baby factory' the next morning. It would take all day of labor and patience for my youngest to be born (foretelling) but he arrived and has been a "walkin' talkin' sass-a-frass" ever since.

Leave the nest. Become a Marine. It's been quite a privilege to raise him, together with his father, and the village that we call ours. If I'm being honest, I'm probably not ready to let him go, still a bit in denial. But I know he is ready, and for that I can only be thankful and pray God's blessings in these final weeks of high school... that he will soak up every possible moment with these friends he has made along the way. This is the foundation of the man he has become.</span></span><br />

Although HE is getting far pickier about returning to places we've once visited, it's certainly been an exciting adventure to gather up a few belongings and hit the road a few times each year. If we won the lottery, we'd travel abroad to many exotic and beautiful locales on our wish list; but until then, our journey has brought us to the occasional bed & breakfasts, on trips to meet friends across country, and weekly to a nearby bar stool for our cherished date night.</span><br />

We have grown to appreciate all that the other has to offer. A matched set, yin to my yang, Desi to my Lucy, Ralph to my Alice, Doug to my Carrie.

Through all of this craziness, madness and learning to love one another, we have successfully raised two wonderful young men. I can only hope that they've learned by our example that LOVE and marriage can be shown and shared in many different ways. There are no set of rules you're handed when you decide to commit to one another... only that you will do your best to find balance, common ground and a shared love. </div>

It's been a while... both since these photos were taken and I carved out any time for blogging. Maybe soon I will make time to get back to writing. Until then, you can find me in other social media outlets while I keep busy with family time and chasing what remains of summer!<br />

Brings back so many memories and I just beam with pride from the audience that both of my boys have stuck with playing since 5th grade. My music teachers made such an indelible mark on my high school years. I honestly don't know if I would be the person I am today if it were not for their tutelage and sharing their love of music with me.<br />

I recorded one selection from each band of last evening's concert. Henry plays in the Symphonic Band and is in the first video below. This is an auditioned band of juniors and seniors. They have such an awesome sound.<br />
<br />
<br />

Equally impressive is this group of freshmen who have come far in their instrumental lives in five short years. I pray that they also continue through their high school careers to enjoy music and share their passion with us. Oliver has signed up once again for his sophomore year and will also return to marching band in the fall.<br />
<br />

</center>
Sharing their life-long love of playing, the <a href="http://www.plymouthconcertband.org/" target="_blank">Plymouth Concert Band</a> performed a few songs for the audience and then joined both high school bands on stage for the finale, The Stars and Stripes Forever by John Philip Sousa.<br />
<br />
It <i>always </i>gives me goosebumps, a tear in my eye and a lump in my throat to hear this one played. <br />
<br />

Maybe it's being a Vietnam Vet's daughter and having served myself, or also having played this song quite a few times in both high school and military band... but by 2:25 in this video, I always think everyone should be standing and have the same tears in their eyes and lump in their throat as I do... I always find myself looking around and wondering if it's only me.<br />
<br />
Until next year... when they will be a sophomore and senior {gulp} in high school bands!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #666666;">I hope that you enjoyed just a small part of our daily lives. I am thrilled to be able to video and share with friends and family, near and far, who could not make the concert - <b>thank you </b>for supporting our boys, and music in our schools, in <b>big </b>and <b>little </b>ways!</span>rarejulehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07569577240916832689noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4938959959671183367.post-29406426900011086472016-04-21T08:30:00.001-05:002016-04-21T08:30:28.073-05:00Be a blessing<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">Passed a woman on the side of the road this morning... </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">taking my kid down 36th to school at o'dark thirty, and she was dressed for the rainy weather, safety vest on, headphones, baseball cap and in her arms were bags... full of trash she was picking up along the road that the kids take to/from school every.single.day! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">What a blessing she is to our community, probably retired, and still giving back. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">I quickly sped off to Caribou and grabbed a gift card, back-tracked and found her... blessed & thanked her for her kindness... hoping she continues in her quest for making a more beautiful world, and that she takes time for a cup of something warm at the end of her morning.</span><br />

<br />
Henry is goalie for the JV/Varsity teams and Oliver is playing attack on the Prep team. If you're looking for me in the next six weeks, it's likely I'm on the bleachers somewhere in the metro.<br />
<br />
If you're interested in cheering on the Falcons and #maboys, you can catch their schedule <a href="http://www.armstrongboyslacrosse.com/" target="_blank">here</a>. The season is fast and quick, so don't miss it - sure to be a great one with many outstanding young men on the teams!<br />

<br />
Purchased letter jacket almost two years ago. It hangs in the closet. Unnamed child gets another letter, back to the store it goes, still with the tags on it, to get the bar added to the arm. Jacket still sits lonely and unworn. Expensive piece of leather to sit in a closet.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
"Don't hang it in the closet and I'll see it and wear it," he says.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Jacket picked up from sports store, beautiful, new.. literally, still unworn with tags. I take it out of the bag and lay it on his <span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;">chair. A full week later, still smelling wonderful, as leather does... but as the weather is nearing 50* this week I am not hopeful it will see the light of day outside the house.</span></div>
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #141823; display: inline; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px;">
And then... it happened.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Teen stands in kitchen trying desperately to get zipper to work on his favorite worn jacket this morning. "Mom, I feel like a kid, why can't I get this to zip?" he says.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
I give it a good try. No, really I do. Flashbacks of toddler coming to me while I zip his jacket tenderly... but to no avail. Something is wrong with the zipper. I can almost hear the leather sounds coming from the other side of the kitchen, "pick me, pick me!" it screams our direction.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Off comes the well-loved, but no longer functioning jacket... and {drum roll please} ON GOES THE LETTER JACKET!! New tags removed from the gorgeous, expensive, well-deserved jacket and the teen struts out the door, mumbling something about being late.</div>

Update: Dad tried to help with the zipper on aforementioned favorite jacket. It's now officially broken. Not by me!<br />
