And That’s….the Truth

Tomorrow my oldest son will turn 19.  His turning 19 doesn’t make me sad.  But him being so far away from home on his birthday does.  Last May he moved out on he this own quite far away and we haven’t actually seen him since last July.  This will be the first birthday that we haven’t celebrated as a family and I guess that’s why I’m a little sad tonight.  Just thinking that he won’t be around around and the two younger kids won’t get to see him on his birthday will take a little getting used to.  But I’m sure he will have a wonderful day and I’m sure I will hear all about it in his next e-mail.

Last September our pet cat Oscar ran away from home and he never returned. Ever since then the kids have been bugging my husband and I to get them another cat. So since it’s almost summer we have decided to get them another cat. Getting the cat will be the cheap part. We will then have to purchase dishes, toys, food and maybe a cat condo. But, they really do miss their cat so I think that we will bite the bullet and get them a new one.
