Here in VA hunting season opens tomorrow...I have heard some pretty accurate phrases to describe this season of my own life: "A Hunter's Widow", "I interrupt this marriage to bring you--Hunting Season" are two of my favorites...regardless of the not-so-looked-forward-to absense of my husband, we are excited about the possibility of "free" meat and so I am posting my kids in camo...Will is wearing the same outfit that RA was wearing not so long ago.
Before we move off hunting season, I will remark that I cannot believe how much RA knows about hunting--the other day a good friend came by to see Robbie and the Outdoor Channel was on. Our kind friend asked RA "Are you watching bucks?" RA in her I-feel-sorry-for-you-because-you-don't-know voice says: "No, that's a DOE!" And the other day I walked into the den and she says "They shot him with a shot-gun, Mama"...oh, okay, hunny... :-)
And here is Will demonstarting his walker skills as best I can capture on camera...he can FLY in that thing! He likes to chase RA all over the house on her riding toy.
My condolences to you. I also suffer this time of year - my husband has a standing date with his other love each Saturday. Only 4 months until the Super Bowl brings a close to all of this.
