He stays up for days on end.

You take a warm shower to help you wake up.
He goes days or weeks without running water.

You complain of a “headache”, and call in sick.

I Still Believe in Santa Claus

September 16th, 2008 · No Comments

I’m not sure what brought up the subject, but last night Andrew started talking about Christmas and Santa Claus. He looked at me kind of confused and said some people say Santa Claus isn’t real. I thought I was going to cry. I am not ready for him to stop believing in Santa Claus. I’m [...]

THOUGHTFUL TWEETS

In yesterday’s Wordless Wednesday post, that is obviously Andrew. And he’s singing along to a friend’s Rock Star game on Playstation.
He loves music, and loves this game. I’m hoping to get him one like that sooner rather than later. He’ll sing or play the guitar or drums for hours.
