Hello all - Happy New Year!! I hope everyone made a safe and joyous transition into 2009. Above are my beautiful sons, who both came home to visit their mom for the holiday. The top photo is me and my son Louis, who just turned 21 (on Halloween, 08) and he is currently a junior at the University of Minnesota. He is the Kappa man, Kavity.

The second photo is my eldest, Otis. He is about to turn 24 (January, 09) and he recently graduated from Carroll College in Waukesha, WI with a Bachelor's Degree in Business Marketing. He is a Sales Rep. for Adidas/Reebok Sports License Division and he is on the rise as a young Entrepreneur. He manages the Kohl's account, East Bay, and assists his boss with the hugest account - Green Bay Packers!

I am just too proud of my young men - I did a fine job raising them as a single mother, if I do say so myself.

I hope everyone has a safe and prosperous year - all will be fine in 2009!
