A Day of Destruction




It was a quiet Saturday morning in St. Petersburg, Florida. The sun failed to show up and a slight haze was hanging over the Waring house. Suddenly, there came a rumble from the very underbelly of the earth. From a distance you could hear the beating of a chest, one could sense the rising of testosterone levels, and a slight chill ran through the Lady of the house. Then came the roar of a saw - Mom grabbed her young ones (one human and one dog) and ran from the house for fear of what was to come. BAM!!! It was over. Mom and child looked up from a huddled position to see a cloud of dust rising from the ground. Dad was standing over top of his tumbled concrete, proud, with his head held a bit higher and his chest protruding a bit further. SUCCESS! DEFEAT! DESTRUCTION! After 8 years of looking at ugly arches in front of the house it took one morning to acquire a pile of rubble.
I am not sure who the man living in this house is anymore. He fixes things, builds shelves, knocks things down. I'm not sure who he is but I sure am glad he lives here!!
I truly think the Devil must be wearing a winter coat today.

Happy day!

Welcome


Welcome to the new Waring family blog. I thought that since life is constantly evolving and moving very fast that this would be a great way of keeping everyone posted (if interested) about what is happening with Mateusz and occasionally his parents. I am very new to this and will do my best to make it interesting and post lots of new pictures. I would love to hear from everyone since this will become a great resource for Mateusz to look back on his life. The first few blogs will highlight what has happened in the past 1 1/2 years and then I will make it more current. I hope this will be a wonderful way of showing off my son and having the family stay close to us while we are all living throughout the country. Life is good! Happy day!
