The planets and the stars were aligned last week and when I was home in North Carolina for a quick, dizzying visit, so was my childhood friend Kirk "Twinkletoes" Sprinkles. I don't have enough friends who randomly burst into song at the grocery store, and I didn't realize how much I missed the fun that he and I used to have. It was as though no time had passed when we saw each other again after many years... except for the fact that I now have three children, lots of stretch marks and a few wrinkles.
This is what happened when I remembered that my digital camera has a video function. I am only sorry that we ran out of memory space before the climactic conclusion of our song... for the children.
Of course I also spent lots of time visiting with family and introducing everyone to the newest little Carson...

In bed, eating cookies... just like old times. Thank You for Being a Friend!
As much as I enjoyed seeing the few friends and family members that we had time to squeeze in, I am glad to be back home. Home IS where the heart is, you know. We were so busy, I didn't even get a chance to stop by Krispy Kreme or Bill's Pizza Pub! Something is seriously wrong with that scenario! I also don't think I fancy travelling solo with my three children again in the very near future. Mama needs a massage and a nap... and maybe even a drink!
