Well... it happened... one of my kids came home at 3:00 in the morning (2:45 in the morning to be exact!) It was a shock. As I waited for him to come in the house, all these questions were going through my head... was he all right? what had been going on? how was I going to react? would his future actions hinge on how I handled this?.... I asked him - what's going on? and he says - I've had a long night - I just want to go to bed.... I asked him what happened? he said - I don't know....
after reading this - you probably think it was Scout right? well you'd be wrong! It was Sager. He had been over at a sleep over and he got sick and his Aunt Holly had to bring him home.
The reason I tell this story is because of this.... sometimes when you only know part of the story, you don't really know all the story. For me, it gets really old people only learning part of a story and then talking about it... if you want to know something find out the real story - as Paul Harvey always said - the rest of the story (especially if it's about me - just ask...but be ready - I'll have some questions of my own - just saying...)
Now on a more positive note - Scout is getting ready to go to his first camp at Texas Tech - he's very excited - it's a track and field camp - woo-hoo! Shaw is finishing up his baseball season - he's absolutely hysterical - at his last game there was a triple play and he got out on a pop fly - Brandon was asking him about it and Shaw tells Brandon - well clearly I wasn't thinking....too funny! and Sager... he's been sick since the last week of school - he's been to Amarillo and Dallas for doctor's appointments but he's still going strong! Shaw will be with me next year at Jr. high and Sager will be a big fourth grader - holy moly!! Where did the time go?

I can see Sager saying, "I've had a long night!" Bless his heart! Sometimes it is just better to be in your own bed.
Thank you for posting this. The last two days I have been questioned about remarks I made on FB and I have had it!!!!!!! I wish people would quit automatically thinking that something always has to be wrong. Just take stuff at "face value" and leave the rest alone!
Sorry about poor Sager. Such a sweetheart and just not fair he is sick! Tell him Mrs. Jenschke needs a smile!
Ginger - not one bit of fun getting sick at a slumber party...
Kim - Stay Strong!! I have had enough of some people and just wish they would get a life - ya know what I mean? Sometimes you can only take so much and then ARGH!!! you just gotta scream! ha!!!
I so thought it was Scout. I wanted to know how you were going to react and what you were gonna say for the future when my kid comes in at three in the morning. Poor Sager. So sorry he is still sick. Hope he gets better and can enjoy his summer. I got sick and am sucking down cough medicine. Good stuff!!!
Stephanie - I hope you feel better!!! Maybe you should go to the pool anyways - I know how you love it!
