A lesson learned...double check to make sure you have your bowl pushed in all the way on your grain grinder before leaving the kitchen to do other chores...it could get bad.

Dylan loves his long hair. I don't know whether it is because it fits the "guitar playing dude" that he is, or that he is hanging on to his hair as long as he can because he fears his Dad's fate...baldness. Either way, he really likes his long red hair. However, me...not so much. I like his hair neatly short so I can see those beautiful blue eyes. However, he is 16 and it is his hair and I try to respect his choices. So I smiled and kept my mouth closed (well most of the time.) My only rule is that it must be clean and neat. However, as a sweet Mother's Day gift my precious son sacrificed his beloved long red hair. Part of me was sad because he changed something he loved for me...and then part of me was so touched because he loved me that much and made that sacrifice. Of course when I came around the corner and saw him for the first time after his haircut I cried. It was a precious gift, but like he says...it grows back.

Wow did we have a doozy of a storm yesterday! We had been working outside at the nursing home on Dylan's Eagle Scout project most of the day (more about that in a later post.) When we heard rain start we were just hot and sticky enough to say we were going to go outside and play in the rain. I had no sooner put my hand on the door to head out when we heard "tinkling". We looked out to find it HAILING! It is June, about 90 degrees outside and there is ice falling from the sky! Amazing! We are so thankful we weren't already outside when the hail started...it might have made for a headache! My poor purple petunia might not make it. However, I think my pitiful green, flowerless pots in the backgound will survive just fine though.
