So the world as I have ALWAYS known it is changing. My Dad, the work-a-holic, decided to retire. All my life he has worked, and no, not just the 9 to 5 kind of job but the, wake up at 4 get home no earlier then 10, kind of jobs. And when I say jobs I mean plural. He worked for Social Services and Prevention Counseling. He ran all the different AA type Meetings, he was a College Professor for UVSC. He had a farm where he fed cows and horses so they didn't escape, and when they did he would fix the fence so they wouldn't escape again, but they always found a way. He cut, baled, and hauled hay and had to move miles and miles of sprinkler pipe by hand. He was seriously never home, but now he will be. I'm not going to lie, I am a little worried as to how he will adjust with his new found free time. He has never been the kind of man to sit still. He was always going, he taught each of us kids the meaning of hard work and the rewards of a job done 110%. He is my HERO! Love ya Dad!

Congratulations to your Dad on his retirement! I bet he'll be just as busy as ever, only with new hobbies or things he's always wanted to do. I can't believe that Kaia's hair is still so dark! Does this mean I may finally have a dark haired grandchild? Hooray! She's so beautiful and her big sister is too.
Wow, he's not gonna know what to do with all that time! And gee whiz, your little Kaia is making me baby hungry. :)
