Me again. Haven’t been around for a couple weeks due to extreme busyness…
I did receive an email from Sarah (Phil’s girlfriend who will be celebrating her 17th b-day tomorrow the 29th – today in Korea as they are 13 hours ahead of us). She sent pics from the past couple weeks and they are so cool! Some are from when she went hiking with her family in Korea – isn’t it beautiful there?! And then there is her calendar where she is counting down the days back to Phil :) And then the pics from when she was just a wee lass – so cute :) And some from a musical show she attended…
Happy Birthday Sae Rok (Sarah) – we miss you!

So today was Father’s Day – I called my Daddy in Florida and he was cooking steaks (mom is still recovering from knee surgery). We got him a new fishing reel that he wanted (he’s a fisherman :)) My hubby got a new camera for Father’s Day and we went out to a relaxing dinner :) Happy Father’s Day to all you great Daddy’s out there!
Congrats to my cousin Danielle and her hubby – they had baby Berrong #2 – a boy, MAX, to join his little sister, Sofia. Hope everyone is well in Florida!!

It’s summer! – well almost, it sure as hell feels like summer it’s been so freakin’ hot and humid. I have a great summer book I just started reading by Whitney Gaskell entitled Mommy Tracked – fab mom book, it’s mom lit at its best – hey, sometimes mommies need playdates too!
As promised from my last post, I have pics! Enjoy the rest of your week everyone :)

Our son Phillip’s girlfriend, Sarah, will be leaving tomorrow to go back to her family in Korea for the summer. She will be attending school while in Korea as they have school year round. Last night we took Sarah out to dinner with our family and took lots of pictures (with Sarah’s digital camera as we couldn’t find ours). Gifts and cards were exchanged between Phillip and Sarah and tears were shed. She is anxious to see her family, but she also doesn’t want to leave her friends that are here – and Phillip. As young love goes, they are counting down the days until she returns – 81. I am sad as well. Sarah is the sweetest girl. So sincere and kind, beautiful, inside and out. I will miss having her at our home, miss having her with us for dinner, I will miss her voice and smile. Saying goodbye is never easy….81 days…
I am reading a terrific memoir by Patricia Harman called The Blue Cotton Gown. Patricia is a nurse-midwife and her memoir has many amazing stories that she has written about as a nurse-midwife that have kept me up and reading much too late at night. Thanks Patsy. I am enjoying your book :)
Time to go. I will post some of the pics we took when I get them. For now, here is another pic of Phillip and Sarah…
Have a great week,
Paula
