actually, leah, could you be a little more demanding than that - it would get my mom`s focus off of us and onto something else...

LOL....trust me...when it is alllllll over with...you will be glad that someone was focusing on the little things! Trust me!!! During...I thought I would have to throw large objects at my mom and my mother-in-law....now...I look back and realize I would`ve been a billion times more stressed if it hadn`t been for them taking care of soooooooo much!

Hang in there...(and schedule the actual day for sometime soon so it doesn`t drag on for too long)!   We gave the mom`s a 6 month window of opportunity to drive us nuts...um...and then we eloped without anybody (except immediate family) knowing and allowed them to plan the wedding day however they deemed appropriate (with some input obviously). Best decision we ever made!   

Have fun with it...mom`s only get to do this once for each of their kids (hopefully). It is a very exciting time for her! (again...just remember to keep the engagement short)

Perhaps we could create a psuedo identity and begin posting in her section?
And, Mama Sloan would return to defend her territory!

Ahhhh...how technology has changed our lives!

From one mom to another, I remember in my youth meeting her for the first time.  A gentle person with tremendous loving and inspiring attitude.  Isn`t that what we all need, and a little honesty too!  I think that whatever her goals are at this point, she is focused on them and will only return if it is part of the outcome of those goals.  I miss her wisdom and know my mother is always there to share her opinion and would be happy to take her place!

 Hi Everybody

Have you been watching Planet Earth on Discovery Chanel?  You know that scene where the polar bear peaks out of her hole in the snow after a long winter`s hibernation....and she takes a good long slow look around to try and decide whether or not to come out?  Well...it`s kinda like that!

But don`t you worry kids!  I will be back.  Especially now that lucky1 has threatened to replace me!!!!

Stay tuned.....
