RAAAAAARRRR!! (i am the lion ) You guys are so stinkin smart I dont know wether I should bow down or smack the crap out of ya This is a good thread!! Sorry if anybody takes offense to what I just said, but I just got a phone call and my grandpa has passed, so I am in a very weird mood right now. Trying to be strong for the family but even my 2 year old knows something is wrong when all he wants to do is hug me all the time to make me feel better. Getting older sucks

Oh Travis! I'm so sorry. But it's good to know that your 2 year old is right there with his young love.

Lots of hugs from all of us.

Sorry to hear it Travis. We went through the same thing a couple months ago. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Yes, sometimes getting older does suck.
