I WON AND OFF TO SEE THE MOUSE

We are in a hotel in DALLAS waiting to fly out EARLY tomorrow to
SAIL WITH THE MOUSE for six days and CELEBRATE PARKER JUST A LITTLE MORE......Do you get that I am MADLY in love with this KID? I got him his VERY first NEW, all his own, LAPTOP yesterday. This BOY is a HAPPY CAMPER. He and his Pop are laid up in the bed watching one movie after another, after swimming all morning, while I am going through all our paper work to BE SURE we have all the right documents to get on the BOAT. Not a small task! Next I am making sure all our luggage is tagged, clothes laid out for a 4 AM wake-up call, and then I need to go downstairs and get our boarding passes printed. PLUS SOMEONE SNORED last night (won't say who but it was not me or Parker) and I SLEPT very little..so running on fumes.

Just checked my email and I WON a contest with the post on MICAH taking JACK to meet his DAD in prison. First contest I can ever remember winning. AND to keep you up to date, MICAH WENT BACK YESTERDAY to their MONTHLY PICNIC! His Dad is still in shock and so thrilled not only to now know Jack, but to have reconnected with his SON. JUST WOW is all I can say.
How appropriate that the first contest I ever won in the blog world came from Mrs. Claus at
ITS LIKE CHRISTMAS EVERY SINGLE DAY! Please visit her site and read the other entries. THANK YOU MRS. CLAUS! You made my day!


Hopefully the next post will be from the DISNEY SHIP WONDER! Parker just said to me, "GRAMMY, this time tomorrow we will BE ON THE SHIP!"
I am not a scary flyer, but with all that is going on in the world today, I never take for granted a SAFE LANDING...so if you think about it, pray that we have a smooth flight, on time, with luggage, feeling good and all the rest that goes with starting a DREAM VACATION. We all just put on our seasick meds behind our ears...just for precaution.

THANKS AGAIN to MRS. CLAUS!

Just a little something from Judy said...

After reading this post, I think you sound like the kind of lady one needs when one takes a trip. You seem to be so organized and yet so relaxed. I understand your prayer request about flying. I will say a prayer for you today. Hope you all have a wonderful time together. What a good grandma you are!

Oh, and congratulations on your award. It was well deserved.

I am so excited for the great time you are having! You are just so precious my friend.

I read your post about Amanda and her pregnancy and it just echoed so much of MY story with my daughter and her pregnancy at 16 and the birth of her daughter at age 17. It wasn't easy, but oh, the joy of that baby girl who is now 7 years old and the light of my life!

you bless me!
