I call him Connie…Really his name is Connor. I absolutely love, love, love his name. He was our 5th and I already had 3 boys so I was kind of hoping for a sister for my girl. I was one of 4 girls so I was hoping she could have a sister too. Who knew that when it gets later in life, the sister thing not that important…
When we found out I was having a 4th son, I was just happy everything was going fine with the PG. When we were throwing out names, the husband came up with Connor…OMG I was so overjoyed with that name, I just fell in love with my baby Connor…
It’s hard to write about Connor b/c he is just such a special person. He was our last, and it has been such a joy to be his mom and a privilege. He too became a performer. His first time on a stage was when he was 4 years old as, “John Thomas” for somebody’s high school play. After that it was dancing all the way…
Connor & his brother Matthew did everything together, so if Matthew danced Connor danced !!!!
I’m going to start with his dancing career, he was amazing on the stage…A real pro
This was before they were married. After watching their performance, the husband leaned over and said, “They are going to get married. They are totally in Love .” I had to agree and I couldn’t be happier to welcome sweet Melissa into our family…
The Courtship…
The Wedding…
I’m going to start with our famous Cookies that we bake at Christmas…Have so much fun as baking with the fam…My happy place.
We do our Christmas Baking downtown at Kendall College in Chicago. So much fun and keeps the mess out of my kitchen. They provide everything you need. Sooo much fun !!!!!!
Christmas…It certainly was memorable !!!!
I at least got the Christmas Picture/Card and Christmas Cookies baked before I fell and broke my arm….Husband managed to get the house decorated !!!
This post was a bit long and it might not be a smooth as I like, but the computer and loading has been a challenge for some reason…Blessing’s from Scarlet, hope you are enjoying, “Scarlet’s Stories !!”
So your husband could just tell they were going to get married? Talk about clairvoyance…
We both could so I think it’s more like just a mom/dad thing. Starry, starry eyes…;)
