choices

There are many difficult choices one must make in a lifetime. Decisions that, sometimes, change the very fabric of your existence. Painful. Life-changing. Awful. Ugly. D I F F I C U L T.

My family has been through a difficult transitional period for a while now. And I have just come to terms with it- and am ready to share it with the "world".

Some of you, I know, will embrace us. Encourage.

Some of you will ridicule and mock.

Whatever you choose know that I have formed a Kevlar barrier around my heart for THIS moment. A moment, that deep down, I KNEW would come one day.

So it is with a heavy heart that I announce....

that my children have decided to become cardinal fans.

There. I said it.

It still huts a little but it helps to know that when the CUBS are in town my children are rooting for them. AND when they win a World Series (which they WILL) my little cardinal fans will still be cheering for my CUBBIES.

cardinal day at school...

i actually spent my own money on this stuff...
yep. that's how I feel about it too carsyn...


I still love them- even if they choose red.
I might have to rethink things if they would choose black (yankees).
Thank goodness they are smarter than that! :)

Maybe you can have Cubs day when you homeschool next year. You need to put some serious thought into the free dress days.

I'm glad we have been positively influencing your intelligent children. Go Cards! Craig just said, "Not me." I ignore the fact that he's a Cubs fan.
