Oh, My Boy

August 20, 2015 at 9:58 am by Claudia

8-20 z

Here he is.

Sitting on my lap, barely keeping still long enough for me to take a quick picture. Obsessed with my phone.

I’m in love with this little boy.

Just saw my dad and I’m going over to spend some time with him later today.

Happy Thursday.

    I’m so glad you’re with your family, Claudia. Enjoy every precious minute. You are so lucky to have them. Don and Scout will welcome you back before you know it. I think it is very ambitious of you to drive yourself back home all the way from Florida! I am not an adventurous driver whatsoever, so you have my admiration…and, actually, that’s a trip I’d love to take, from Florida to New York although, like you, I’d rather have my husband with me. Thank goodness it’s the time of year that it is, and that you’re not going to have to worry about a pending snowstorm or something. How long will it take you to make the trip back?

    He is a sweet little guy – so glad you are getting to make his acquaintance.
    Have a great visit – how long can you stay? Take care driving back home – it’s a long trip but I’m sure you will take a break somewhere along the highway home.

    Hope your Dad is doing OK –
    Hugs – Mary

    Your wee boy is a real sweetie as much as your quick take shows.That age they are very inquisitive. My six Grands were at that age.

    Your like my daughter who is in her 50’s. She drives herself everywhere. No fear.

    I used too somewhat but she is more adventures in car on highways and byways.

    Since I’ve never met him I can’t be as certain as you are, but having read Meredith’s blog and seeing him so much, I think he is one of the cutest, sweetest little boys ever. Enjoy your family time Claudia.
    Blessing,
    Betsy

Welcome!

Welcome!

I live in a little cottage in the country with my husband. It's a sweet place, sheltered by old trees and surrounded by gardens. The inside is full of the things we love. I love to write, I love my camera, I love creating, I love gardening. My decorating style is eclectic; full of vintage and a bit of whimsy.

I've worked in the theater for more years than I can count. I'm currently a voice, speech, dialect and text coach freelancing on Broadway, off Broadway, and in regional theater.

Thanks for stopping by.
