Ask Me Why...

Ask me why, I'll say I love you, and I'm always thinking of you.
I love you, 'cause you tell me things I want to know. And it's true that it really only goes to show,
That I know, that I, I, I, I should never, never, never be blue. (Please Please Me)

I have found my THUMBS! Or at least the Left one...
This week has made me think of those who love me and what they mean to me.  Work has once again slapped me with an incredible challenge - one that is fighting me with every step.  It's not just the logistics - which I can usually concur with ease and grace.  It's challenging my emotions down to every fiber of my being.  Making me think, question, re-think and question again my own personal beliefs and even ethics.  And for those of you who know me well - which I hope you do if you are reading this, you know that I am firm in my beliefs and don't question them.
Yes, I still have Daddy's eyes..
All I have wanted, no needed all week is to come home to my boys and be a Nothing.  So drained - I need to be on the couch with Ben snuggled in close to me.  Assuring me of his need for me.  Something that won't waiver (at least not until he is asking for something ridiculous at a time yet to be determined in our future).  I had Tim keep the Bug up past his bed-time last night so I could see him when I finished with my clients.  I needed him, them both, in a way I never have before.
The dogs still tend to startle him. I can understand that one!
Ok - enough of the depressing stuff!  As I said in my last post - life goes on!

So getting back to the love you's.  The two men in my life are, my eternal loves.  They make me smile in ways I never imagined possible. Take this evening. I was putting Ben's clothes away and Tim was cooking dinner with Ben.  I checked on them and Ben had the biggest grin on his face.  Melted my heart.  And this is the reason why I should never, never, never be blue.  I have a FANTASTIC husband and the most adorable baby on earth.  What more could a girl want?
We are also officially drooling.  Yeah drool..
Tomorrow is Ben's urology consult - so we will keep all posted on the outcome.  Then the poor guy has to get his 2 month shots (although tomorrow is his 3 month birthday).  I think he'll need some ice cream after - or at least a stiff drink for mom & dad!
This is his GQ look
Love to all!

  2. You're a strong woman who will conquer all! And you're right, having an amazing and loving family to come home to every night will make every day, at the very least, dealable. Don't know if that's actually a word... We really need to set up a date, not just talk about it. I'll send you a message...

  4. Firstly, GREAT blog!!!!

    secondly, although I'm VERY impressed that you have quoted The Beatles (and 1963 Beatles at that), the song was "Ask Me Why". It wAS off the "Please Please Me" album, though, so you get half credit!!! LOL!!!
