Yeah, you can send their butts home when they start acting up! It was one of those days with my kids and I today, hubby went golfing and fishing and was home all day with them, trying to get some work done nonetheless. Can't wait till grandkids.

I can't wait for grandkids too! I won't pressure my dear daughters, but they know I'd be thrilled if and when they come along.

Severe compression of spinal cord, flaval ligament, etc. at C4/5 & 5/6.
Herniation and compression, at L3/4 to L5/S1 plus spondylosis at the latter level. Severe allergy to most metals.
Three level surgery in Brazil with Dr. Luiz Pimenta on March 17/2010 using non-metal appliances. L5/S1-PEEK cage, ALIF; L4/5-PEEK cage, XLIF; C5/6-NuVasive NeoDisc. Three separate approaches, two minimally invasive. Currently minor residual back pain, from SI ligament and still overdoing things. Therapy and chiropractic treatments helping immensely. Gone from being almost bedridden to near normal activities including gardening. Life is gooooood!
Oh sorry, trk-er, I didn't mean to forget you...just haven't had my morning coffee yet, and pushed send too fast
What a great family you have...you have covered all the bases with ages, haven't you! Does your son and family live nearby, so you have big Sunday dinners and such? He looks so happy with the kids on his lap.
