Sarah (to Mom, shortly after learning of Circuit City's demise): "You know, when Barack Obama is done, maybe Daddy should run for President."
Darren and Sarah (Friday night, with enthusiastic conviction): "Daddy, you could be a lifeguard at Great Wolf Lodge!"
Sarah (Saturday morning): "You should just play your guitar and leave the guitar case open for people to put money in."
So many possibilities to ponder!
On a serious note: to all who've added comments, sent emails and made phone calls of love and support: thank you.
Our lemons are few, the sugar abundant.

Honey, I was reading your facebook messages the other day and am so sorry this has happened.
Love those kids for trying to help.
Like the way the kids explain it much better...the guitar thing is the best...great idea!
see? usually people start with a very big idea .. and then when reality crash them in a way or another .. they end up with the least they can get from this life ..
that story was so cute !
Kids do such a good job of teaching us how to
a) keep a stiff upper lip
b) think outside the box
Aren't the kiddos so sweet and innocent! I like the Great Wolf one, I can see in their minds...they would get to go visit him on the job every day.
Now that made me laugh out loud.
Your kids are wonderful.
Good luck to your hubby..he and your family remain in my prayers
