When They Call....


Nikky & mike a.k.a. The Bride & Groom


Billy & Katrina a.k.a. The Marines

Billy - "Hello mom, you aren't going to believe this. The pants I bought are too big!!"

Lynda a.k.a. Mom - "Didn't you try them on before you paid for them?"

Billy - "Umm, no!"

Mom - "Oh Billy, well...what size are you wearing these days?"

Billy- "Oh, see that's the thing. I think I have a pair of dress pants in the closet in my room???"

Mom - "No you don't you got rid of them. Do you need me to go to Express and pick up a pair of pants for you?"

Mom - "Hello Hello, Billy are you there???" "CALL LOST"

RINGGGGGGGGGGG

Billy - "Hi, mom?"

Mom - "Yes, hi. Did you hear what I asked you before we got cut off?"

Billy - "No?"

OMG

Mom - "Do you want me to go to Express tomorrow night and get you a pair of pants?"

Billy - "Would you please?"

Mom - "Yes..."

Stopped by the mall, needed to grab something (can't tell you what it was just yet)...

RINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!

Mom - "Hello, HI!"

Billy- "Mom, hi."

Mom - "Hi Billy, what's up sweets?"

Billy- "Can I check into my room at about 1:00am on Saturday morning?"

Mom - "What, why?"

Billy - "Katrina is able to come and her train gets in on Friday night at about 9:30pm, after we get her bag and get back to the truck and head out it should be about 12:30 - 1:00am by the time we get there."

O.k., let me call the hotel...hang on....Billy, all set. Either dad or myself will meet you in the lobby on Saturday morning with the confirmation paper!"

Mom - "Love ya, yes; I'll bring your black dress shoes. What, I love you too. You don't feel well, what's wrong. You feel funny; your legs feel heavy, what were you doing, oh cardio, in a sweatshirt, ugh. Do you need me to come down there? I will, please be sure to drink plenty of fluids, please HYDRATE HYDRATE HYDRATE! What, no I'm your mother and I can tell you what to do if I want!"

Mom - "I'll kick your butt when I see you if you don't listen to me!"

Billy - "Love ya mom, thanks. You always have my back, you're the best! I love ya, call you tomorrow!"

Mom - "O.k., love you too, feel better, have a good night. Sweet dreams kiddo!"

Mom - "Hi, Nik! Oh, well yes...no, problem with his pants. Yup, I'm going to go get him another pair tomorrow...Katrina can make it, so he's excited about that! You sound tired, are you o.k."

Nik - "Oh brother, I am exhausted..."

Mom - "Well, go get into bed and go to sleep, you need to rest."

Nik - "O.k., I'll see you tomorrow. Nite mom, love you."

Mom - "I love you too Nik."

  2. Oh Sweetie...
    Isn't that just the sweetest conversation? I love it. When my kids get sick or don't feel well, they always give me a call. They are 29, 32 and 34. It makes me still feel useful.

    Can't wait to see the pictures of the wedding. What a wonderful time of year to have one too.

    Have a wonderful trip. So happy for you all.
    Many hugs and much love, Sherry
