Spring has Sprung!

A quick update on the attempted child abductions... Like Ria mentioned in a comment on my previous post, there was a third attempt this week. It wasn't reported until after the other two but happened over the weekend. I'm not sure if this is causing some type of hysteria up here but people seem to be really on edge. The three incidents don't seem to be related - the only thing they have in common is that the "suspects" are all Hispanic men in their 20-30's. So who knows. We are definitely being more careful but I'm trying not to worry too much about it. It's strange to pull up to T's school and see several police cars (who are not there to make sure parents *ahem* don't park at the yellow curb for five minutes) and news crews. It's just strange.

On a lighter note, I am loving the gorgeous weather we're having lately! My skin is getting some much needed sun and the Vitamin D is definitely a mood up lifter. Even the boys are excited each day about the new things they are discovering - buds on the trees, green grass poking through the dead yellow grass, etc. Gavin came running in the house this morning yelling "Spring is here! Spring is here!" which was just too cute for words.

We are really into American Idol (yes, most of you know I'm a reality TV junkie) - and last night's episode was fantastic! My favorite is definitely LaKisha but I was blown away at Jordin's performance. We haven't watched the results show yet tonight (love TIVO!) but I am crossing my fingers that Sanjaya is gone this week... I liked him at first because his voice is unique but I do not think he belongs in this competition at all.

So my frustrated husband announced to me tonight that if Guiliani wins next year's presidential election, we are moving abroad. Now I don't think you want that anymore than I do, so let's all get behind my man Obama! :) Intervention, anyone?
