Wow! I can't believe today is here. Okay, so I can, it's not like I thought the world was ending yesterday or something, but my, my, my, time sure does fly.
Today, Samantha is going to her first prom! Eek! Dad is pretty nervous about this (his baby girl is growing up too fast, sometimes), but I'm sure she'll have a blast. And look gorgeous doing it, natch. Sam's mom has things set up so her date should have to meet the entire extended family on that side before heading off to the dance. That's a good way to start a first date, right?
Next week, Michael will be running in his first track meet. I remember my first track meet and being terrified of the gun they shoot off at the beginning of the race. Luckily it was startling enough to get my butt moving. Also, luckily, Mike has none of my genetics because I wasn't the fastest...
Oh, and today is Bridgette's 6th birthday. Next year, she'll have to switch to "mature" dog food, according to the Iams label. Our sweet, sweet girl almost wasn't here, as I found her at the pound on her last few days on death row.
Thank goodness for the small miracles that have allowed today to be reality. I love my family.
