No, unless the birthday of one of my dogs counts?

Both my husband and I woke up this morning - very glad about that ;)

Good morning Brenda. Lots of them, but I see as everyday that I have is a gift.

My daughter just bought her first house.  My husand just turned 50

Everyday I wake up is a milestone

Graduation of my youngest child from college this month

My kids are getting gray hair and talk about their aches and pains. That make me feel ancient.

Excellent!  No milestones for me, unless you count replacing my first water heater.  LOL!

The mysteries of life continue to beckon and I listen up with earnest

Congratulations on your family milestones Brenda!

reaching my goal of right weight and good physical condition.... it took me 3 years!!

I feel the love, joy and excitement reading your commentary to your question. Very exciting stuff. Having a son join the Navy would be a proud moment. Yet, one that would l;eave a mother always in prayer mode. Thank your son for me for his dedication to serving.  

Yes, I have had some major person milestones.  

As of last month, I could draw my social security.  But not gonna yet!

No milestones here, unless you count getting a new roof.  

Sounds like you're enjoying time with your daughter.  Thank your son for his willingness to serve.  I always pray for our service men and women.  

Brenda,

How wonderful for your daughter and her first prom, and your son going to the Navy is definitely a moment of wanting to be selfish.    A

Sounds like a fun whirlwind. Thanks for your upcoming service as a military mom and to your son for his willingness to serve. Go Navy! (Navy brat and a Marine sibling here.)

No milestones lately here, nice and quiet. :0)

Does getting older count?

Nothing too recently - new granddaughter last year, who just happens to be visiting

Sounds like exciting times for you Brenda, enjoy the moments.

No major happy milestones. My 91 year-old sister who lived through the seige of Leningrad in WWII and communist rule, died last week. I suppose I can consider this a life milestone... that generation is quickly disappearing.

Just relocated to Chicago to be closer to my son.

     My 18 year old black cat Henry passed away the other night.  That may sound depressing, but it's not. He lived a long, full life that other cats can only dream of.

     Henry was the greatest cat ever.  He was the King; he lived a cat's life.  He climbed trees, he drank from a mountain stream, he ruled over the other cats in our pride. 

      Henry never showed any signs of pain or suffering.  He started looking weak a few days ago, and the other night, he just... passed away.  Very peaceful.

     We buried Mr. Henry Pearson (full name) in the woods in a county park near our house.  It is "protected green space" so nobody will develop it.  I dug a grave about 3 feet deep, we placed jasmine flower blossoms on Henry and then covered him over.  Later this week I will plant wild roses and pink azaleas around his final resting place.

     Long live the King!

I am looking for one soon again.
