Deciding what to do with his life

So, the son has long been interested in cryptology. Books and books on it. Artemis Fowl books read and decrypted. Game cheat codes. Crptyograms. You name it.

He told me yesterday that they discussed working for the government in his class yesterday. He thinks he wants to go to school to learn cryptology and forensic science and be a CIA agent or FBI agent one day. I asked if he was interested in it from a military aspect, but he wasn't. I know he had talked about forensic science in the past when he got hooked on CSI and NCIS.

But now he wants to be a cryptologist, decrypting secret codes and things.

He's 12 and he already knows what he wants to do with his life. I admire that. I admire the passion with which he talks about it. I'm 38 and I still don't know what I want to do! LOL.

He wants to go the police academy route, he thinks. This could be interesting. :-)

Hello World

I have had blogs in other places, blogs that have their own purposes and that have their special meanings to me. They have helped me in my journey and I've made many pretty awesome friends through them.

This journal, however, is different.

This one is for my children.

I have two beautiful babies who would both tell me very quickly that they are "not babies." However, they ARE my babies. They will always be my babies. Here I will talk about the experiences that brought them both to me and about our journey together.

Above all else I am very proud of my children and I love them more than they can ever know. I hope that one day they can read here and remember happier days together, learn from the sadder memories, and most of all feel my love.
