They have ALL learned NOT to tell him he looks like Justin Bieber!!! But here's the kicker, as small as he is there isn't one of them he can't pick up, literally. Most of them he can carry with little strain. Don't ask me how he does this, all I know is the kid has been able to do handstand pushups since he was 3 or 4. He can climb the door facing with just his fingers. Just makes me shake my head and wonder what is next.

My son won't even pick up his room - or a plate! I have to bring him his food (and make it for him first, even if it is just a sandwich), pick up his laundry (which means also washing/folding it for him), etc. - but he can carry a 150 pound amp around in one hand and a guitar (+ case) in the other. He's not a muscular guy since he quit football (defensive line, believe it or not! I could always pick him out of the line because that long blonde hair woudl be sticking out of the helmet in the back) - but he's strong when he wants to be.


I'll move up the pic of him, ignore the date - that is just me not knowing how to change the date in the camera :

Unfortunately I don't have a pic of him looking like JB but this one kind of captures his 'essence' lol. His sister got hold of him and 'fixed' his hair.

(I am computer illiterate, someday I'll learn how to imbed the link in a word, lol)

Mischief....UM YEAH!!!!
If I had had him first I would have had a sex change because a hysterectomy wouldn't have been good enough. BUT that said, I wouldn't trade him for ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD, pain in my a** that he is.

I'll bet, lol. He has wicked imps in his eyes that spell trouble for Mom's and Sisters, that is for sure, lol.

Did you see the instructions for how to change the colors? I posted them above, wait - I'll do it again.

I figured out the color and the font stuff, what I am trying to figure out is how to imbed a URL into a word. For instance a picture of my youngest behind the word IMP...

Athynae: [ url =http://i1067.photobucket.com/albums/u429/Angi_Gaines/Mitchell.jpg ] IMP [ / url ]

Remove the spaces and you've got your embedded picture!

I've been choked with schoolwork lately, it's slowing down for the moment though. But I imagine it'll all go back to full speed week 5, especially maths. *Saquira runs away screaming*

IMP

Saquira You rock!!!! Thank you. I just couldn't figure it out....


HAHAHA!! And then, after it's imbedded you call said son and ask, since he's been playing Oblivion, if he wants to see what an IMP looks like, then you open it. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Priceless

Is it something to do with sitting in front of the camera?...My boy's in a similar pose when he did his own photo for something in school!...

Coolio!...

Blimey mALX, yer boy's got some hair on him!... ...

*Is jealous btw*...

McB you being jealous is one thing, ME BEING JEALOUS, well, that's something different entirely...ROFL.I haven't had hair that long and thick since I was, well back when the dinosaurs roamed the earth...

I think the idea that your son has a similar picture is the coolest, that rocks...I do wonder though if yours could be anywhere near as mischievous as mine...

Girls fight amongst themselves to touch his hair, lol.

Dunno about mischevious...He's not really like that...*Quickly makes clear that he's not alledging stuff just going by what was previously said by Athynae...*

But his 11th birthday is on Sunday...*Mumbles something along the lines of "if he gets there"...*...And we're off to the nearest city tomorrow to go shopping for...Y'know...Stuff and have a meal out and all that "YIPEE!! birthday weekend ahoy!!" stuff...

Aaaand of course, he's gone into his Merlin's Diva Strop™ thing that he does...My God he sulks...Aaamywho...We're still going and stuff, but bloody hell it's difficult sometimes...He really does strop like a good one...

Oh yeah, and it's the wife's fault that his name is Merlin...After the bird of prey allegedly...I left it to her to choose the name...I just had the veto for things like...Ursus...Peregrine...And the like...*Rollseyes affectionately*... ...

My Ex, (now passed, bless his soul) - wanted to name my older boy - I finally had to put my foot down because of some of the outlandish names he was coming up with. I finally told him to make a list of names he wanted, and I would choose one from the list. That is how he got his name, and it is still ... unusual.

I just finished my AS retakes. I don't have to start revising until June...I...I'm...

FREEEEEEEEE!!!

*Runs around in a circle cheering*

Now I need to catch up on all the stories I've been neglecting reading on this forum. Pah, this place is becoming too much like hard work...

The only thing weird about the youngest ones name is he has 3, plus his sir name. Had to cover all the grands so we didn't hurt anyone's feelings...here's the thing though, my eldest is named after my grandmother who passed when I was 12 who was soft spoken and wise and she is JUST LIKE her!! My eldest son is named after one of his father's grandfathers and he is JUST LIKE him or so they tell me. The 12 year old girl is as feisty and quick tempered as my great grandmother who was all of 4' 6" but you DID NOT want to get in her way. So that brings us to the youngest, prior history should have warned me. He is named after both of his Dad's grandfathers who were, shall we say, quite colorful in their own right, and my Dad, who was wild as h***, just an example, he ran 'shine on an Indian motorcycle in the saddle bags in the '40's. (See you all didn't believe me when I told you I was old, huh?) WHAT WAS I THINKING???? Yep he's just like them, ALL of them, rolled into one compact version, all of them were over 6 feet tall, he might be 5'6" when he's grown, but I doubt it.

YIPPEE Colonel!!! I'm not free but I don't cost, nevermind, CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Athynae: You're welcome. Sounds like you've got your hands full

Colonel Mustard: Good for you!

I've been given more homework, but this one is actually something I want to do and it's my own fault that it's hard because of the subject I chose. I'm actually really happy at the moment, and not only because I'm interested in doing my new homework.

EVERYDAY!!!! Saquira, everyday....

It is a tremendous thing to be "happy"...I'm happy for you. Enjoy the homework, as weird as that sounds there are times when it's nice to look forward to WORK...

Chyahs, yah tah! And seeing as it's homework you want to do, can't be that bad, can it Saquira?

Also, forgot to say earlier, nice hat there, Malx.

Lol, he has the cane too, and the tux has long tails - he went to the prom as Mr. Peanut! (And was a huge hit in it!), lol.

And CONGRATS on your Freedom (don't spend it all in one place, lol)
