Dancing With My Boys

Life doesn't get much better than when I'm dancing with my boys. Granted. I have zero rhythm, Joe had zero rhythm, and as a result my boys have zero rhythm.

But we love to dance. Let me clarify: The boys love to dance anywhere, I love to dance in the privacy of my own home. We dance ourselves silly, then we fall down.

Tonight I danced with Josh on my feet. His little hands in mine, his tiny feet on mine. Moving in synch, round and round we went. We were laughing at each other, and then little Josh said the words that moms love to hear,"I love you mommy." A perfect moment.

We had rhythm.

All was well.

I disagree with the boys not having rythym thing.

0/0=1 therefore if you divide Joe's 0 rythym with your 0 rythym then it stands to reason that at least one of the boys has rythym.

Of course I was never good at maths so I could be wrong. :-)

Oh, how we wait for the first smile. The first laugh. The first hug and kiss freely given. I am now waiting to hear those three words.

I'm pretty sure I don't need to tell you don't ever take them for granted.

Oh, I love moments like that! Whenever my niece and nephew say it out of the blue, that's when you know there's pure love in the moment.

Love the post! :-)

Dancing with your boys is such a great thing. I'll bet they will always remember how they used to dance with you. What wonderful memories you are building together.

So... technically when you divide by 0 it's undefined. ( 0 / 0 = (undefined) )
What does that mean you ask?
well let's take an example...if you think of 10/2=5, then you think of 10 blocks that are being separated into 5 groups of 2.
But if you have 0/0 =? Then you think of how many groups of zero will you have to equal zero. I think the answer is that any number of groups will work, or infinity (or undefined).

Then that means your rythym is undefined or infinite, which would also be good. (although undefined rythym sounds a little weird)

Love it!!! Jack dances like his daddy...very uninhibited. There's nothing better!

And let me warn you, girlfriend...I didn't know that I liked to dance until I got together with a bunch of crazy SL women. Now I really don't care what I look like...so be forewarned!! :)

p.s. I don't understand the lag time in being able to view your blog. I checked it late last night, and there were no new entries. So, if I always seem late to respond, that's why.

B, I wanted you to have this. It's entirely unrelated to your post, but you don't have an email linked here so I'll have to put it up for the world to see ;)

Dottie's Restaurants

It's a link to a site with tons of WW Points info on restaurants. The page is covered with ads, but look for a long column down the right side of the screen.

DWLZ

That page links to Points on just about everything you can imagine.

If you want more good free info you can email me from my blog. Hope you can use this stuff.

Here's an odd thing: I wrote a reply to everyone earlier, and it's not here. I hate when that happens. I can't go through it all again b/c I'm too tired. But here is some of what I wrote:

HG, thanks for the info! I'm loving WW, and I've already lost 4 pounds!

Walt, I was gonna write that I'm a white Jew, so of course I can't dance, but then I realized that you are too, so that excuse won't work with you.

Jo, thanks for checking out my blog. I enjoyed reading yours, and will continue checking in.

Leslie, Thanks for the hug.

Everyone else (like I said, I'm tired) thanks, as always, for your comments!
