But... the heating system guy just called to say he would be here just before lunch. HE CALLED!!!! This is extraordinary behaviour for a contractor, and just more confirmation that I think we chose the right guy. Hope you have a good day, and don't step on any legos barefoot :)Erickahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12149679327267686146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4022647561825347958.post-25184822207939977032009-01-19T07:33:00.000-05:002009-01-19T07:33:00.000-05:00Sweetheart, Fifty-six methodical steps done in t...Sweetheart, Fifty-six methodical steps done in the correct sequence slowly to achieve the desired effect. I see genes at work there, genes that I used to watch learning and mastering new things. When you were last here I watched his Father's inquiring mind and quiet confidence at work in Rix. You and Alan have combined for an incredible result.<BR/> Bigger house= more space= more room for more stuff= more expense= back to the old amount of free space with less resources. Does the term vicious circle come to mind? Take your pick, cozy nook or big rambling empty barn.<BR/> Warm blanket, cup of cocoa, purring cat, and a good book. I see another set of genes at work there. You are a wonder and a source of great pride.<BR/> There was one thing in your post that impressed me greatly. You said that "When he talks, I listen." That is rare in people today. I see a long happy life together for the two of you. I have seen Alan put forth an opinion, you modify it slightly, and Alan agree with your thoughts. The two of you complement each other seamlessly. No one seems to be striving for dominance. This will be good for Rix, as the time will come when he will try to take advantage of dissenting opinions among his parents. This is not a negative thing as all children try to do this. It is an innate ability that all children posess. He will encounter a united front and this will serve him well in later life,<BR/> all of my love to you and your family, always, daddysandwhichistherehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03268887596112837882noreply@blogger.com
