1- HE MAKES A KICK ASS GUACAMOLE ( he makes many delicious dishes)

5-HE TAUGHT ME THE BEST WAY TO CHOP THOSE HERBS EASILY
6-WHEN I'M OVERWHELMED IN THE KITCHEN.. HE SENSES IT AND ASKS IF I NEED HELP, THEN PROCEEDS TO HELP WITHOUT NEEDING ANY INSTRUCTIONS.

10-WHEN HE REHEARSES HIS 'NOISE' MUSIC AND MY HOUSE IS SHAKING, IT ENCOURAGES ME TO BLAST MY MUSIC WHICH GETS ME TO DANCE AROUND MORE OFTEN
11-HE HAS WONDERFUL FRIENDS WHO ARE ALWAYS AROUND AND ADD MUCH LIFE AND HAPPINESS TO OUR HOME

Your family doesn't like to play scrabble? You poor thing! We play almost every Saturday night.
You might consider using that large paring knife to cut those apron strings.
I've got the insurance providers pulled up on the computer instead of the phone book out (from my TT). Your son is terrific! What a keeper for some lovely young lady someday. You taught him well.
What sweet kid! you are a lucky Mom, and happy TT.
Send him over, Dave could use some help in the kitchen. lol
You did good mom! Me, I re-did their rooms the day they left so they couldn't come back. LOL
XXOO
P.S. Labs are the best!
This is so incredibly sweet, I absolutely love this list. You have raised a wonderful person and son.
I surprised to see this one, as I had been thinking along the same lines as you! Instead I opted to use the one you used with the food!
Very sentimental and loving. Great tribute to a wonderful son! Gotta love them!
Hugs Sherrie
sounds like you are really enjoying having him home, how wonderful :)
