Chance on July 4th, 2009
Well, I think that I am going to start turning this blog into a family blog and not just about Bridget. She will have been with us for a year on Oct. 18th and I think that most everyone who has been following her can see that she is adjusting. Plus, there just isn't that much to talk about with just her. AND I don't want to leave my others kids out of the picture!
My son, Chance, is going to be 16 in October. He will be getting his permanent driver's license. Although he has had his temporary license for a year, I am still not ready to let go and allow him to drive by himself when he wants. Is that too controlling?;) (Now I understand why my parents didn't let me get my license until I was 18!) It's scary! He drives great and I know that it is just me and my paranoia kicking in! (I think maybe I need some therapy for that!) He is also going to be joining a group called CAPS....which stands for Civil Air Patrol Service or something like that. It will help him to be ready for military life if he chooses to go into the Air Force. He does want to be a pilot and has talked about being one for a couple of years now. About 3 weeks ago, he and his dad got to go ride in a small plane. This friend of my husband actually let Chance fly the plane! Course, it only reinforced what he has been talking about. Anyway, I am relieved to see that he is getting focused on what he wants to be when he grows up (I'm still working on that part myself!) O.O I think that he is going to be a wonderful addition to the adult world out there.(and good looking if I do say so myself) He is starting to resemble Hugh Jackman (Wolverine in X Men) who I think is quite good looking.

PS! coming from another estonian..lol.. lotsa estonians are very skinny and is just in their genes..i used to be very skinny n tall all my childhood, i started gainin weight more when in teen years but just saying..so dont worry about it too much ..she will start gaining weight when its right time for her :) I am 21 btw.
AND lol..about pronounching w and th.. its just because our language pronounces these a little different..:)
