I am home today with Sary she has a yucky stomach bug. Today was Jake's last day at his job so he couldn't miss it. MIL is occupied with train convention stuff. So even though I have very little leave I had to stay with her. She comes first.

(Sary like Mary with a S.)  Now that we are going to know soon what it is Jake has gotten nervous about his boy name.  (Stephen after his father.)  Once I find out which it is I would like ( Read more... )
