Cute Enough for Tears
Tonight was The Son's first school concert. It was so cute. My son is pretty shy/reserved and to see him standing up on a stage in front of a hundred people was pretty amazing. Even more amazing was that, although quietly, he did actually sing the song and play the instruments. It moves you to tears to see your child in a situation like that. It really does.
My best friend & his wife have been in Costa Rica. They went there to scope out the land as their dream has been to relocate in the next few years. I received their "postcard" email today (isn't it funny how the world has changed... instead of a beautiful postcard from an exotic land, we now get a wonderfully written detailed account in email form as they log on from the nearest Internet cafe) and I have to say that selfishly I'm so relieved to hear that they are both sure they don't want to live there. While my best friend & I don't get to really hang out together anymore... kids and marriages, work & play have superseded the time we used to have together, he is my best friend and I'm so thankful everyday that we have moved in the same forest together over the past 17 years seeing each other through the trees that line our paths. I would hate to have him so very far away. So I am glad... sad that a dream of theirs has ended but very glad that I'll have him right here on the next path over.
