Guest guest Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 Elie and his two roommates came for dinner last night. We gave his companions Xmas gifts and served a Chrismika (Xmas and Hannukah together) meal. Our mountain friends prefer hama to all things. So we had a holiday ham and LATKES for Hanukkah complete with mountain applesauce we made in the fall. Elie sat in the living room while we ate, listening and watching Sesame Street goes to Israel for Hanukkah. HE took his food home with him on a styrofoam plate. But he reminded us that next week we are to come take him OUT to dinner! He also checked to be sure we still had his container of clothes here - and then told us he wasn't staying . Love my boy to visit. Happy holidays whether it be Kwanzaa, HAnukkah, Xmas, Denali or Something Else!!! -- Sara - Life is a journey- we choose the path.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Sara, how cool is that! Zeb spent last week at a leadership forum at the state college. It was the first time away overnight without family. He had a blast. Charlyne Subject: Elie To: Date: Tuesday, August 4, 2009, 4:39 PM Elie was invited by one of his new friends to go to a " sing " last nite. He was told that if he wanted to go, he had to wear khaki pants and a collar shirt. HE went to his room, got dressed, asked for help with his hair (VERY SHORT HAIR) and told them black shoes at mom's. Any way. my sweet Jewish boy went to an old fashioned gospel sing in the mountains and rocked out with the audience. HE had a GREAT TIME. His favorite is his mom's favorite - I'll Fly Away!!! And he went with a friend from the community - not a paid staff member. -- Sara -To Life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Irma, Zeb was selected to attend a week Leadership Forum at UCONN. He had the time of his life. It was the first time I was kidless in 35 yrs. I hate to admit but I enjoyed the empty nest. Zeb went to a dance on the last night of the forum. He told me that he met a girl that he liked and danced with most of the night. I asked him what her name was but he said that he forgot, so much for finding a girlfriend,LOL.

Just awesome Charlyne and really glad you handle this well too and on the part of being kidless. A week, whoa, did not see this, this is such news! Hope there are similar future outings, now that you and Zeb got a taste of such social time and kidless time. : ) Irma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Our boys are growing up! Zeb, Garath, , Elie and the leader. Wow. So many years . Elie sings FLY AWAY with great gusto - the rest is sort of muttered a phrase behind everyone else. But he loves to wave his arms and sway and sort of dance. It is great. AND HE DRESSED UP FOR IT!!! > > > Charlyne: What Zeb was at a State College? My goodness such accomplishment > here, an overnight stay. WOW!!! > So proud of Zeb and glad he had a blast.
