Pretty Baby

I am not a fan of SERIAL anything especially concerning relationships/marriage. I had one boyfriend in my youth, and married him. Same with oldest daughter, and our second-born too. Third-born son is in his first and only serious relationship. He would never dump his GF unless a zombie apocalypse were to occur, LoL. Fourth-born, however, is not sticking to the script: she has found herself a second BF. Whoa. Has she gone off the deep end?  She most certainly has a loose screw. Why oh why did she force this poor mom into un-chartered relationship territory? I feel discombobulated. Where's my aspirin?! Waaah!!!

I truly miss her first BF, Jay.  I've been pining for him for several weeks (“Gee, Mom, you're taking this a lot harder than I am”, says she). He was talented, good-looking, able to translate Italian, a great cook, and gifted with Piano chops. He was also smart and on the fast track to Med School. I had imagined him marrying my daughter, and them having a baby girl who'll look just like the one pictured below -- extremely near-sighted and all -- just as he was.  Sigh.

Daughter ♥ BF

Prompted by Prada

...to remember why I was drawn to my BF (now my DH).  Romy had good looks, and he used his charm and personality to his advantage. He was also persistant.  Here we are as Singles. He had opportunity to pick  from among far better-looking, and more talented Ladies, but he chose me.  Yay!  The Prada male model caught my eye 'coz some of his features reminded me of  DH as a young man.

His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely.
This is my beloved, and this is my friend...
