A Max Funny

Max came home from school this week proudly announcing that he had kissed a girl at school. When we reminded him this wasn't exactly appropriate playground behavior he was quick to reassure us that it was OK because this little girl was his "girlfriend" and she kissed him back. Yikes! Really?


We explained to Max that he was NOT to kiss any more girls at school......EVER! To which he responded, "If you're not going to let me kiss the girls at school you're going to have to find me other girls to kiss because I liiiiiiiiiiiiiiike the ladies." Again, yikes!


Now I'm just sitting by the phone waiting for the phone call from school about my little Don Juan! Have I ever mentioned how much I love my life?

Late Breaking News....

I just got off the phone with Max's genetics counselor at Johns Hopkins, Max is officially scheduled for his yearly testing and cardiac evaluation the week of March 22nd. I knew this was coming but dates, confirmations, etc. always make me emotional -- mostly because everything now becomes concrete so I can start worrying about any potentially bad news we might receive while we're there. I know I should remain optimistic but I am a mother (an Italian one at that) and so I fret!

I guess for now I can stress myself out with all the travel arrangements that need to be made…anybody out there own a private jet they’re willing to loan us, if not a xanax might work :)?
