Love Stinks

Well, I may be a bit jaded and cynical myself, but when it hits my kids, I feel awful. My son has his first “real” girlfriend and things are going well (apparently) and then out of the blue, two days after their second prom–the dreaded text message (yes, you read that right) “I think we [...]

Rocking Horse Ranch –November 12-14, 2010
