they could barely open their eyes with the sun in their face...
if i post a lot of pictures of my chil'ren here its because my mama demands them, regularly. she calls me up in the mid of morning and blurts out:
"send me some pictures of the kids"
it is so much easier for me to just direct her here...even though sometimes, most times, probably just to make me work a little bit harder she asks me to email them to her, and also text her some too.
if i don't have any new (and i mean within the last 48 hours new) from when her demands begin she says something like:
"geez...we don't have any new pictures...come on...i need to see some pictures of my babies...noo, some current ones"
i want to tell her that they haven't changed too much from the last set. that they are past that baby stage where they change every couple of weeks and each new month there is a list of facial features and such that has changed.
we know what they look like now. probably for almost forever. i still look about the same as i did about 26/25 years ago. well maybe i have more big people teeth, and my face is not as chubby, but still the thick eyebrows, the resemblance of my daddy...its all still there.
but still...here are almost new pictures for you mama:
the kids in downtown riverside
*little ones are taller than they appear in photos...especially the boy*
and i'm sorry to say that last night while brushing her teeth, yali dropped her sixth tooth. and no, i haven't taken a picture yet. so i guess she doesn't look the same...
other random stuff?
i finished some short knitting projects!
i finished my arm warmers...that are waaaay warm. and i finished my neck cowl...that is waaaaay too big...booo.
i blocked both projects to feel all knitting official...and now i'm anxious to start something new. some body please give me some suggestions...i need cheap, cute and fairly fast.
and also...i met my best friend's son for the first time...teo.
eddie roscoe, stephanie and baby teo
i can see he has so much of eddie's (my best friend, not my husband) personality...he's free, inquisitive and has the most friendly and giving spirit. within seconds of meeting me, he picked up leaves and were handing them to me. he looks like mama though...and he's a cutie.
eddie was my bestest of best friends at la verne...we have stories for days! almost all of my best memories involve in some way or another eddie roscoe. i really can go on and on with good things about him, but he'll probably read this...so i won't. hehe. let's just say he is my dearest friend. a farmer. a deeply thoughtful and spiritual guy. funny as heck...was great at keeping my gas tank full when i was broke and putting $2 in the car was fine with me, and he let me use his shoulder to cry real snot and tears on many of occasions back in the late '90's.
and...this is the kicker...he missed the taj mahal to kick it with me. yeap thats a darn good friend people. and, this is the other kicker...he gave all his clothes away to the locals there. all! i picked him up at the airport, and all he had was his backpack on his back and his harmonica in his hand. i dropped him off on his way there...so i knew he had more...when i headed for baggage...he informed me that he had given all this belongings to the locals he'd gotten to know.
he explained to me all he needed was the clothes on his back...and he'd surely acquire more soon enough. he also explained to me that clothes would be much harder for them to get than him...and finished by saying it was the least he could do after all they had given him.
i'm telling you people...he's a great guy.
...and isn't it ironic his name is eduardo...edward? him and his wife stephanie are great people, and geez i'm happy to call them my close friends.
okay...enough jiber-jabber....time for schooling today.
have a good one!
peace and luv,
ki
