Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh, so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain was yellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were a tender and callow fellow.
Try to remember, and if you remember,
Then follow.
Wow was it a busy September- not a slow one at all. I am writing this in Oklahoma while my grand babies sleep. We are leaving for the Texas/OSU game in about an hour and I am ready for a nap too! There are a few wonderful moments I needed to capture in my blog for posterity. First of all Brooke, Travis, and Hudson are living with us until October 20th, when they close on their house in San Antonio! How lucky could I be! Brooke is an excellent cook. Dinner is usually ready when Kirk, Connor, and I get home from work. Hudson is a great baby and loves it when we get home. I have to say he prefers his Pops, but I still get to bathe him most nights and play peeka boo with him! He also likes to pray and will spontaneously fold his hands in prayer and say Pray! So Precious! I have introduced him to Yo Gabba Gabba and he loves it.

I am still on my healthy living journey and decided to walk/run the Deerpark 5K. I pushed the stroller with Hudson and Brooke and Kirk ran. Kirk came in 2nd for his age group. So he was pretty proud. I finished in the rear but was proud to finish. It was a beginning. I am always in awe of my sister who runs a couple of times a week and is a marathoner. Maybe one day I will get there Ellen.

Finally we have had dinner with other couples in September. We have a real social life now that does not revolve around school, kids, weddings, showers, or football. Kind of fun! We had dinner with my wonderful friend from college- Janna and her husband John. We always meet them downtown and have good food, libations, and conversation! We also had dinner with our friends from Dallas, Becky and Fred. It was their 10 year anniversary and it was such an honor to spend it with them. We hope to get together more often.

The kind of marriage you make depends upon the kind of person you are. If you are a happy, well-adjusted person, the chances are your marriage will be a happy one. If you have made adjustments so far with more satisfaction than distress, you are likely to make your marriage and family adjustments satisfactorily. If you are discontented and bitter about your lot in life, you will have to change before you can expect to live happily ever after.
