(with apologies to poor Lady Starlight, I really am sorry!!! xoxoxo just skip the next part Who was it that said that death is just like the parting of a loved one that is sailing away on a ship? You watch and wave and eventually the ship disappears at the horizon and you are left alone....but, in heaven, the ship is coming into view and your loved one is arriving back home and welcomed back into loving arms. That's how I feel it will be. And Molly's DD does it again! LOL!

Now, this might have happened to some of you when your kids were little, but my son is 20 years old, he's 6'5", weighs 290 and he's STILL saying stuff like this! lol I just try not to make eye contact with anyone and keep moving...<< Too funny. I have a son with Aspergers and I still have to remind him not to talk about bathroom things or personal things in the elevator. He's 27 and had a 4.0 in college, lol. This is a great topic.
