Whistling and Working

I wanted to start off by saying to everyone that I am sorry Lu hasn't been able to post much, I am sure most of you much prefer her wonderful stories and insights to my babbling and rambling. Keep her in your prayers as she has a lot of work and stress that comes along with that work and deadlines associated with that. She has a very proud husband because I see her put her whole heart into her everything she does, and work is no exception. She has been working at minimum 9 hr days, usually longer and working Saturdays for the last couple of weeks. It means I get to see her less, which lets face it, it isn't fun when you have less time with your best friend. But truth be told, I am learning a lot through this time. Most important is that I am learning that I need to rely on God and spend more time with Him so that I can be there for Lu when she needs me. I am also learning how to be supportive in the right ways and what are the little things I can do to take away stress that she doesn't need to carry with her. I think we make a great team and I am glad I am learning and growing, I am glad that this season has come, I think it will prepare us well for the future, but at the same time I am looking forward to it being back to normal.

So this maybe totally random, but I realized yesterday that I was missing something I wish I had. I think in part it is because I believe it would be useful, in part because at times I think it would just be cool, but probably one of the main reasons is because of what it reminds me of. What is he talking about, some might be saying (I can dream that I am great at putting you in suspense right?). Well I am talking about whistling. No, not the sweet little whistle a tune as if you were a small avian species waking on a beautiful spring morning. I got that kind of whistling down. I mean more of the shrill piercing kind as if you were hailing a cab or just trying to get someone's attention. I mean a whistle like that is definitely useful at times, and I am not gonna lie, I think it would be cool plus the added benefit that I like to receive attention at times. But really it is something that my dad used to do to call us in from playing outside. Mostly it was just a "hey come here" only every now and then was it "hey you are in trouble." But just that loud whistle of his brings back a lot of pleasant memories. So yeah I want to be able to whistle loudly and get someone's attention. Any one have suggestions or tips on how to do it, my own attempts have been somewhat pitiful so far. I know it is possible to use your fingers but not necessary, so yeah that was my random thought.
