Well, it's official... my blog has been found. In the past six weeks or so, I have put up a number of entries about Nathan, and felt totally comfortable writing absolutely anything I wanted to about him, since he wasn't reading it. Well, I guess that's changed, but I will try to convince myself that it didn't really happen--- just so I can keep writing my true thoughts and feelings. Try. It's like being observed... I'm being watched!
So, this past week was Sinterklaas, and what an awesome Sinterklaas it was! I love Sinterklaas! In my family, we have this wonderful tradition, where all of the gifts that we give at Sinterklaas are either service gifts or cheap... meaning dollar store cheap. This rule was invented with the intent to encourage us, as family members, to be more service oriented. It has resulted instead, in a lot of gag gifts. The best part is, in order to give a gift, you have to write a poem about why you are giving it. Unfortunately, this year I ran a little short on time, and therefore, I didn't get my poems finished. My other family members, however, did a fabulous job!
Nathan came along to my house for Sinterklaas, and as part of Sinterklaas, he was given a gift by Chelsea and her boyfriend, Robert. They had decided that it is too confusing to have so many Nathans in the family, and so we needed to change Nathan's name. So, they gave him a file folder, with a name change application in it, informing him that until his name is changed, his default name is now Rick. My family called him Rick for the rest of the weekend...and will probably continue to do so until he really does fill out the form and return it to my sister.
So, maybe I shouldn't worry at all about what I'm writing on this blog about Nathan... it's just Rick that's reading it anyway. ;)
