Happy Anniversary To Ones We Love.

We never know
Or fully realize
How sweet and kind our parents are,
How gentle and how wise.


We simply take for granted,
From day to passing day,
Each sacrifice they make for us
In their own loving way.


But then we grow and finally learn,
The way that children do,
How much their love has really meant,
How thoughtful they've been, too -


And so this comes with all the thanks
You both deserve and more.
For there aren't two dearer parents
Than the one this post's for


Happy Anniversary!
All our love.

Let's Be Thankfull All Year Long.

OK I admit, I have been completely neglecting my blog...
I could tell you 100 different reason why
I have not been posting. Each of them would be true.
So I will just go with what I have been
thinking about the pass few weeks.

I have been doing allot of studying
and reading the pass few weeks.
My brain has felt like it wants to explode!

We are coming to the time of year,
were all the stress kicks into high gear.
I thought it was a great time to
reflect and to be thankful.


Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire.
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something,
for it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.
Be thankful for your limitations,
because they give you opportunities for improvement.
Be thankful for each new challenge,
because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes.
They will teach you valuable lessons.
Be thankful when you're tired and weary,
because it means you've made a difference.
It's easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who
are also thankful for the setbacks.
Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles,
and they can become your blessings.

Have a great week !

Happy Birthday !

I know, I have so many great things to post about, it has been so long ago since my last post.... I have been with out a PC for sometime and you don't need to tell me how frustrating it is.... I think I have covered all the four letter words in the book on this subject.

Today I had to make sure to log on to someones PC to put up a special post.
This one is to some one new in my life.


MY FATHER-IN-LAW !
HAPPY BIRTHDAY !

We once again are wishing you another year
Of laughter, joy and fun,
Surprises, love and happiness,
And when your birthday’s done,


We hope you feel deep in your heart,
As your birthdays come and go,
How very much you mean to us,
More than you can know.

LOVE YA !
Have a great day !

Last day of school

Today was the last full day of school! Can you believe it.... Summer vacation already.

I can not believe how fast the time has went by. It feels like we were just having the talk with our 15 year old, on how different high school is from junior high !!!

Yep, our 15 year old made it threw her freshman year of high school. Now don't get me wrong, there were times I thought we would not make it but with God beside us we did it !!! She is growing into a beautiful young women.

Our baby well he will be 9 years old in a week. He is moving up to the third grade.
Leaning all this "New" math, spelling words I can not pronounce...

Man what happen when did I miss it all. The Portie training, the coloring in the lines, the first tooth fairy visit, the first broken heat, the first dance, the first school suspension. HOLY COW !


Tell your kids that you love them. They will soon one day be all grown up.
For those of you that already have the ones that are all grown up, Thank you, we love you and a job well done !

Have a great weekend !

Each day is a gift !

Today is such a gift. We forget that sometimes.

For all of you that read my blog, I encourage you
to pray for strength for one of our fellow bloggers
(The Freeman's)and their family.

Have a great day !

Cyber party for who?

It's been awhile .....Time for another cyber party
and a slice of cake !

Amber (A true friend for more then 20 years)

Your Birthday
Today is happy
It most certainly is
Shake a pop
And make it fizz

Fly a kite
Or take a nap
Slap a knee
And pat a back

Run or skip
Without a care
Or fly a plane
If you dare

Swim or skate
Take your pick
Hit a mailbox
With a stick

Fall or trip
Laugh or play
Do whatever
It's your Birthday !

You can even have more then one slice of cake !




Happy 33rd Birthday Amber !
We Love you !
