I can't believe that.....
« on: March 11, 2010, 12:05:34 PM »
Today is my son's 21st birthday. I have a 21 year old son.   :o

He was born at 1:09 am and weighed 8 lbs 6ozs. He was the cutest little guy. He has been a walk in the park so far (knock on wood). He has one more year of college and he is following in his dad's footsteps with his major which is Industrial Design.  He is doing so great at college too. He is a better kid than I even hoped for. I am so lucky.

Happy Birthday Andrew (even though you won't see this).

Happy birthday to your son. Might I add, you don't look a day over 29.

He sounds like a great kid and I am going to chalk that up to great parenting!  Congratulations!

I'm flattered, but my wife only allows one girlfriend at a time. :(

Well, he couldn't have possibly turned out any other way, given the two parents who had him.

Congratulations, BEG.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

I still can't believe I have a grandchild.

Restraining orders have that effect.  Besides, you never sent me that order of carne adovada from Anita's, dammit.



That's right--that's all I wanted.  One plate of that, and I would have done anything for you, dammit.

Wait til he turns 30...you will wonder how that's possible when you are only 39... :-)

Our Baby Boy....our youngest....our last....turns 30 next month.  Now I'll have four (count'em: FOUR) kids 30 or over.  One of them will be 39 this year. 

It is scary where the time goes. 


(HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Andrew, a delightful young man and a blessed treasure to his wonderful parents.)

My oldest will turn 31 on April 22. Impossible as I said....since I've decided to only be 39...and willing to move up to about 42-43. That's it.  :-)

Sounds like your job was done right and the kids will turn out great as you expected.  I just wish my daughter and her mom would get along as well.

Our oldest son was born when I was 17, so he has a real bird's eye view of the aging process.  My oldest son is adopted so he is not subject to my snow-whiteness.  He's aging better than me as a result.
