Urban Homesteaders and Homeschoolers
Jun. 18, 2006 - Happy Father's Day!

What a red-letter Father's Day this was! On this balmy morning, we packed the whole family into the car and headed downtown to run a Father's Day 5K race. My dh is such an avid runner that this was the best possible gift we could have given him. Our kids were thrilled when their adopted grandparents also showed up for the race, as were we.

Our 2B6 ran the 1- mile race and he actually came in 1st place. He was thrilled! He just followed the golf cart that led the runners around the course, speeding up when it did. The driver of the golf cart and the policeman beside him thought this was so funny! Now we know that our dear boy just needs a little carrot dangling out in front. Don't we all? As icing on the cake, my dh and 1G8 each took 1st place in their age groups. What could be better?

P&P
The Pride and Prejudice type: Truly an Austenite,
this type is a Romantic at heart, but they
always keep their head and are wary of
melodrama. Lively, clever, and independent.
These people are easily amused by their own
foibles and the quirkly foibles of others.
They lament society today, and dream of the
time when guys were gentlemen and girls were
ladies.
