Unraveling

Little by little, His Honor extracts himself from me. I feel it in every unraveling of the string that binds the two of us together. In the mornings, he comes to our room with his arms laden with stuffed animals and lies between Conan and myself for about 10 minutes before it's time for me to shower. That really is one of the few moments where we are still, his head on either my shoulder or Conan's. We are side by side, but only for a brief moment of the day.

As he bids me goodbye in the mornings, he does not run up to me and kiss me goodbye. I suppose he's in the presence of friends, but I did not think that that type of self-consciousness set in until the pre-teen years. Is he mature for his age, perhaps? I hope that is not the case. Hugs and mommy-cuddles are for right before bedtime, and for breaks during soccer games and for those times when we have tested each other's limits and rubber-band back to each other after the storm of a tantrum. But they are becoming a little less frequent. And that makes me sad.

The past few days, we have been working on a poster with pictures that show his growth over the past near-six (!) years. The roundness of his cheeks has almost vanished into thin air, but I remember the pudginess that framed his eyes so vividly. "Wistful" would not even begin to describe it. Have I started thinking about another baby simply because I miss those days--or am I starting to be ready once again for our lives to be shaken to the core again?

Awww...what a cute post. I can imagine it must be a little bittersweet. You do want them to grow up, but of course changes always need getting used to.

Washington, Nov 14 Two US foreign policy experts want the next US president to publicly support India's bid for a permanent seat in the UN Security Council and make India and China formal members of an expanded Group of Eight (G8). 'The US is missing an excellent opportunity to do what the Bush administration has said is its goal: 'To help India become a major power in the 21st century',' said Bruce Riedel and Karl F. Inderfurth, setting the agenda for President George W. Bush's successor. 'The next US president will face a multitude of foreign problems and crises, but one country will pose an almost unique opportunity India,' said Riedel, senior fellow of foreign policy at the Saban Centre for...http://super-blog-here.com/

New Delhi (PTI): His perfect 10 at the same venue against the same opponents now cricketing lore, Anil Kumble would renew his tryst with Ferozeshah Kotla when he makes his debut as Indian captain in the first of the three Test matches against Pakistan starting here on Thursday. Given a choice, Kumble would have loved to roll the 22 yard Kotla strip, pack it in his bag and take it home after he claimed all 10 wickets in Pakistan's second innings in that unforgettable second Test in 1999. Since then, Kumble has become one of the most senior players in the dressing room, and when he walks out for the toss with counterpart...http://best-sport-blog.com/

But it could've been a lot different for Smith, a model during The Methodist Hospitals' ReStart Center's fourth annual Weight Loss Showcase and Celebration at Avalon Manor on Saturday. Having just left Hartsfield Village Nursing Home in Munster a week ago after a three month recuperation, her weight loss surgery saved her life as she's been planning it. "The doctors told me that if I'd have gone in at 200 pounds more (or the weight she's lost since the surgery), I'd have never left the nursing home," said Smith, who sat stage side with a walker. "I just turned 68, and there's no way I'm ready for that." Each of the nine models showed their pride as they walked the stage. Dessa Rattray, soon to graduate from Ball State University, said she'll feel more...http://wl-site.com/

1 quarterback before suffering a knee injury, is available in reserve. Coach Karl Dorrell has not entirely blamed injuries for his team's troubles, but said, "They have been a part of it... We need continuity. I think every offense and defense would love to have continuity from Game 1 through Game 11. As coaches, we would love that, but it is hard in this sport to have 11 players from start to finish on your team on either side of the ball." Oregon starts the game ranked fifth in rushing offense, fifth in total offense and eighth in scoring offense. That, though, was with Dixon at quarterback. Brady Leaf, who suffered a sprained left ankle against...http://coolnews-4u.com/
