This & That & That & This

This I have no words for

He's 14.
It's all I can say.
Which I guess will also explain this

The contents of which include:

• A poweraide

• A quart of ice cream

• Box of Nilla Wafers

• Goldfish

• Oreos. 

50% of which I wrestled out of his hand and put back on the shelf. 
I am now questioning my mothering skills or lack thereof
and subsequently
his ability  
or lack thereof
to survive once he leaves our home.
Good thing I still have a few more years to work the kinks out. 

This

is one of just a few pictures of all 7 of them that I have
it's taken with my camera phone....
because both of my memory cards for my real camera are somehow "locked"
and I have no idea what that means or what to do about it.
Goog to the le tells me to slide a tab over
but there is no tab
so my camera phone and I are besties of late
whilst my nice camera and memory cards sit idly by mocking me with their photo potential. 

This sweet face spent a day with these attached to him this week.

He did great
until I had to take them off.
And that tape?
Is very sticky.
Just so you know.

He cried.
I bought him a yogurt parfait.
And we moved on with our life. 

I think heart surgery was less painful than that tape removal.
Just sayin.

These are socks I found shoved into the couch.

That I find disgusting.
7 boys people.
7. B.o.y.s. 

This

is a very cool cake that was on Army Wives on Sunday.

Yes.
I watch Army Wives.
Don't judge me. 

It's an ID card for Finn.
He turned 10.
Which is when military kids get their first ID card.
It's kind of a big deal to these kids....
though probably not to Finn...
cuz, ya know....he's just an actor and all.
But nonetheless....the cake?
Wicked cool. 

This is Jack and me
Jack and I
I and Jack
errrrr
whatever.
It's me and him.
Him and me...
oh hush. 

This is Joshua

whom I found sound asleep under the futon in the middle of the day
for no particular purpose or reason.
He's been doing that lately.
Weird.
Cute for sure,
but weird.

This is Jacob

and his first time flying a kite.
Love that. 

This is Connie.
Nurse Connie to be exact.

She is Joshua's nurse.
And what I would have done without her the last few months
....I know not.
She is one incredible lady. 

This is a sweet 6 year old boy that really, really needs a family right about now.

A post all about him is coming to a blog near you very soon.
Because I am not above begging or jumping up and down screaming,
"Don't you understand?! He will DIE without intervention. Please, someone help him!"
Yep.
I have no shame when it comes to such things.
He deserves it.
He deserves more. 

And that
that is all I have.
Tomorrow is a big day for Joey.
I don't expect to know anything for a few days
but when I know
you'll know.
Because I like you.

The end.
