The Godfather

Well, the title may be a little deceiving. I have never seen the Godfather officially. I have seen bits here and there from cable tv, usually after it has been on an hour or so, enough for me to NOT understand what is going on. The closest I have come to 'understanding' what it is about, is through the movie,... ok.... don't laugh 'You've Got Mail'. :o) All of you fellows are probably moaning as if to say 'no that isn't right'. But it is true. The movie YGM mentions going to the mattresses or something. That is all I know. Anyway, I digress!

The Godfather is not referring to the movie but my Grandfather. Several months ago, my kids were on the phone with my Grandfather and Grandmother. My daughter renamed them in her early days of learning to talk. She called them Munner and Fadder. Now, as my son took the phone to talk he said 'Hello Godfather'. If you could hear my son say this, you would know how funny this is. I almost wondered if he were Italian all of a sudden due to the rythym of his words. It cracks me up still.

Well, 'Godfather' asked my 3.5 year old daughter and 2 year old son, 'Do you want to come over and I will take you fishing?'. This was greeted with screams of joy and then it started, 'Please mommy, please can we go fishing with Godfather?'. Godfather lives about 12 hours away from us. Needless to say, Godfather was quite amused with this dilemna he put me in! It has been tons of fun now too since anytime the kids see anything remotely connected to fish, they ask to go fishing. This blog is for you Godfather! Thanks!! :o)

Going fishing will be great, but according to The Godfather, we do not want to "swim with the fishes".

Love you Morningsong!!

that's your brother? I don't know him but I see him in church. It's so funny to see who is related in church.

3 columns are for wordpress.com blogs, or purchased domains. Blogger doesn't allow 3 at this time. I wish they would. In hindsight, I wish I would have started my blog with wordpress.com and I still may. Supposedly you can transfer all of your blog from blogger to wordpress, but I haven't figured that out yet.
