Just finished For One More Day by Mitch Albom. Good, quick read, although no Albom book will match Tuesday's with Morrie.
"You can find something truly important in an ordinary minute."
"But there's a story behind everything. How a picture got on a wall. How a scar got on your face. Sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking. But behind all stories is always your mother's story because hers is where yours begins."
That's my beginning in the photos. Speaking of my mother, she was inspiration for the Scrabble hello. As someone recently reminded me, a standard sentence of my mom's is, "Who wants to get their butts whooped in Scrabble?" I'm going home this weekend, and I look forward to my whooping.

So are we going to play Scrabble?
Love, Mom
P.S. Since I'm working on improving my writing skills; I would like to clarify. It is, "Who wants to get their butt whipped?"
Last time I looked, I had one butt. From behind, to otherrs, it may look like two?
Also, whoop and whip are different. Scrabble butt whipping is the only kind of butt whipping a mother should do! Love, Mom
All right, Ms. Grammar, can I remind you that I was only quoting you with that "butts whooped" part? :-)
ALL RIGHT, now I see where you got your grammar policeman skills from.
