• Schools…a Baby…& a Wedding

  
  

  Well…Caleb met his teachers and his therapists and feels right at home in his classrooms now!   It was nice to see him exploring things in the rooms and all.  I’m very glad that I had a chance to take him over there to do that.  I think that it will help him a great deal next week…and the teachers as well.

  
  

  Everyone at this school seems to be very nice and helpful…I think that we’re going to like it there, which is very comforting for me and a bit of a relief.

  
  

  

  
  

  I know that I told you all that my best friend Eric (the one I visited at WDW in May) is going to be a Daddy.  I did tell you that right? Umm…hmmm…I can’t remember if I did or not.  Well…anyway, he IS and the baby is due January 26, 2005!!! I’ve even got a picture of the new little family member!

  
  

  

  
  

   

  
  

  I’m very excited for him and his girlfriend…err…I mean fiancee.  Yup…they’re getting married!!

  
  

  Not only are they getting married, but they’re getting married in two weeks!!!   August 24th to be exact…which also just happens to be my eldest daughter’s (Dora) birthday! Yeah…that’s my Eric…always associating things back to me somehow.   He says, “this way you won’t ever forget my anniversary…well, and neither will I”.  That doofus!!  Spoken like a true man eh?

  
  

  Now…because of the wedding being so soon, not many people are going to be able to attend…including myself.   In fact, I think only his and Kippie’s (the bride) parents are going to be able to make it out there.  I think that’s good though, at least they will be there for the ceremony. 

  
  

  I feel bad that I can’t be there for Eric on his wedding day.  He and I had talked about the wedding while I was there…and he hadn’t even talked to Kippie about it yet at that time.  He didn’t purpose to her until about a week or so ago.  I know…last minute everything!!  Anyway, when we talked about what he wanted for the wedding…one thing was he wanted me to stand up with him.  I know, not traditional…but hey, we’ve been best friends since high school and we’ve gone through a lot of crap together.  Besides, he would’ve been at my wedding had he been able to get time off of work…but at that time the was in Dallas, TX and working for ABC Radio…things were going downhill for their department and the boss said no more time off.  So…he didn’t make it to Vegas for our nuptials…but we had Wil there and it was still a perfect day.

  
  

  Oh man…I got a bit distracted there…sorry.

  
  

  Well…I just hope that I get a chance to see the baby after the baby is born.  Eric’s parents are planning on spending a lot of time out in Florida to help out for the first few months…so there won’t be much room in the apartment for guests.  However, I may wind up having to get a hotel room or something…but I want to see that baby…end of story.   Ya know?

  
  

  Okay…I’m babbling now.  I’ll visit you soon…have a great day!!

  
  

  OH…and don’t forget Miracle Run comes on again tonight at 9pm est/pst (7pm mst) on Lifetime if you missed it.
