RF> NB> You've learned very well from your daughters.... :) And I'm sure that
RF> NB> you've also been a good influence in their lives... :)
RF> NB> RF> Anyways Sarah is close to graduation and she has one more
RF> NB> RF> report card to show me from High School. I guess I was feeling
RF> NB> RF> a little something I am so proud of her. Don't know how she turned
RF> NB> RF> out to be such a good person. So much like her mom who showed me
RF> NB> RF> many things even as young as she was.
RF> NB> She obviously has some of each of you in her... :) Is she going on
RF> NB> to college...? Or does she have other plans....
RF> Well influence in many ways, yes. But since she was raised by me, her dad,
RF> I am afraid she has more male like behaviors than she would have
RF> if her mother lived. She's direct, has no problem competing with boys
RF> in burping contests, etc. I noticed that when she was hanging with her
RF> male buddies and saw that she was accepted as part of that group. She
RF> isn't dainty to say the least. She does have the manners I taught her
RF> but she also picked up some of my bad habits when no one else is
RF> around.
Not necessarily a bad thing... ;) I picked up some of those male "bad"
habits from my son and husband... shocked one of my son's friends by not
being apologetic about a burp... ;) As long as she knows when it's less
appropriate to indulge in such, she should be ok... ;)
RF> Yes, she is going on to college and hopes to be able to develop a
RF> career in working with handicapped children. She had a great
RF> experience and develop a love for that in her junior year of high
RF> school.
That sounds wonderful... Did she do volunteer work...? or have a
part-time job with it...?
RF> NB> Sorry it took so long to answer, I've been caught up in Real Life
RF> NB> with a vengeance the last couple of weeks... :) Hopefully I'll be
RF> NB> able to catch up soon, and then stay on top of things for a while... ;)
RF> Well I hope you beat back those Real Life thing and came out on top.
It wasn't so much a battle as an immersion, I suppose.... but things
seem to be a little calmer now... :)
RF> Glad to see you around. I see you login to C.G. Learn bbs (gap side)
Yeah... the other side's been a backup board of sorts for me, and I was
willing to check out the gap side once it was put up... I've been
sticking around on that side because C.G. is actually playing me in
Scrabble and KOTB on that side... I caught some little glitches early
on, too... ;)
RF> See you around.
