Have fun entertaining. I myself always liked being that house that the kids gathered in.

I'm envious that he's off to college -- that was certainly, easily, some of the best years of my life. All that learning, the campus life, the friends, the intrigue, the freedom -- it's just the best. I hope your party goes well -- tell us all about it, including what you serve!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03313726816776097840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994832747844483996.post-4007186457235240572009-10-21T16:04:54.406-07:002009-10-21T16:04:54.406-07:00I found your blog through another.

You are such a whole spirit, even in your suffering. I cannot put into words how sorry I am that you lost your girl. I am a mother of two boys and one girl...it is a pain and loss so infinite I cannot imagine. I can only feel the edges brush against me and honor your walk through such a harrowing journey. The clear and direct way you express yourself and your story is life affirming, even in such darkness.<br /><br />I will keep reading.Maggie Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14699674732274478502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994832747844483996.post-36984125544456672562009-10-21T14:35:51.784-07:002009-10-21T14:35:51.784-07:00I saw this story about Marc Dreier on 20/20 or 60 ...I saw this story about Marc Dreier on 20/20 or 60 minutes. Such a shame. He just could not stop with the lies...like he was possessed or something. Just crazy. And you are right, young people who start their lives out lying/cheating are going to have a rude awakening when they can't get away with it anymore. I am amazed that their parents have not taught them better values than that...but perhaps their parents are like Marc Dreier???<br />50 people???? You are brave and sweet to do that...have fun Karen.<br />Off to check out Katie's updated page.<br /><br />Oh, and I get you on the college thing too...we visited 2 recently for Lo, I am excited for her, but scared for ME!!!Busy Bee Suzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18115487928147732314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994832747844483996.post-38810842664231564602009-10-21T12:15:35.416-07:002009-10-21T12:15:35.416-07:00You're raising a wonderful young man there, gi...You're raising a wonderful young man there, girl! : ) Yes, we've encountered cheaters and parents that go around behind their kids cleaning up their messes and discipline issues so the child never has to face their own problems and shortcomings and it truly is sad 'where things are going' sometimes. And yes, rarely do those kids really succeed in life... especially in the things that matter most! <br /><br />Sounds like you'll have a wonderful party at your place. I'm so glad you're feeling up to hosting and taking care of all the details. I'm sure it will be just perfect! : )Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01256281745796890125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6994832747844483996.post-84506113969678152322009-10-21T10:26:23.351-07:002009-10-21T10:26:23.351-07:00I love that you are hosting that party.

The thought in my head is "People need me to be there for them". So I admire what you are doing, and am, as usual, inspired by you. I hope the guests feel the love and that it is a great success for YOU. <br /><br />As for the cheaters, we always said as kids, "cheaters never prosper" and that seemed to settle the whole issue. No one escapes the consequences of their own poor choices. So congratulations to David for choosing the high road. <br /><br />Let us know how the banquet goes...Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14519140951660677172noreply@blogger.com
