A little drama

As corny as it may sound I just have to say it:

Brent is my Sam.
I know, I know! Corn!

You may recall this easy to love character from The Lord of the Rings. He was Frodo's faithful companion and served him tirelessly. Even when Frodo was mean and hateful, Sam never wavered (okay, once he ditched grumpy 'ol Frodo but he did return and save his life) and walked the perilous journey to Mount Doom with him. I happened to catch the very end of The Return of the King late last night with Brent slumbering beside me. After making it through last week with Brent standing ever ready, I was reminded how lucky I am. And he proved himself again when a laundry basket that seemed bottomless, was miraculously empty.

Okay, so I'm all for a little drama but I'm such a sucker for a happy ending!

I just read your comment on my blog that you will be here October 11th! YAY!! I am so so so excited that you will be able to meet Sophie when she is still so new. My due date is the 7th so hopefully she will already be here by the 11th or I will be about ready to explode! But anyway, just wanted you to know how happy I am that you will be able to be here! Love ya!
