Pictures?


Katey & Angie, one last hug. She really misses having Angie at home...except that now she can wear her clothes! A whole new wardrobe isn't a bad thing, right? :)
Matt & Lauren on the "broom stick swing" that Matt made from rope and a broom stick. Interesting combination.......but I don't think I'll try sitting on it!
Here's Angie & I the day we left her at college. Note who looks happier on this day! She loves college, and we are very thankful for that! I just wish she were about 4 hours closer....it would make weekend visits much easier!
WHO IS THAT GUY????? That is my dear one with coffee grounds for a beard, his dark sunglasses, and a spiffy cowboy hat. It was his "costume" for a trick on Matt & his friends on Halloween night. He snuck around the back of the house and came up the front sidewalk, looking very shifty. It was a little suspicous to the boys since he didn't have any little kids with him, but you never know on Halloween night, who might be out and about. So, our character walks slowly to the porch where Matt is sitting (as a scarecrow, trying to scare older kids) holding the bowl of candy. Bob reaches into the bowl with one hand, and grabs the edge of the bowl with the other, and takes off running with it. Matt, ever the hero of saving our candy, dives off the porch to tackle him........comes withing 2 inches of hitting his head on the landscaping bricks around the tree! Knocks the air right out of him!!! And then when he realized it was his dad, he really wanted to tackle him! It was pretty darn funny......afterwards! :)

Welcome to my corner of the Universe

This is really just a personal journal of things in my life. I don't update often, just when I need to vent or do some therapeutic journaling. I'm glad you stopped by. If you feel like leaving some encouragement, please do so...we all need a kind word every now and again! Have a blessed day!

About Me

My photo
I'm a 45 year old mother of 4 biological children and currently 2 other little ones who are living with us temporarily. I've been in love with the same man since 1981 and appreciate him more and more the longer we are together. I delayed going to college until I was in my 40's, a decision I don't regret as it has been a wonderful experience for me. I have learned so much and having several years of life experience has given me great perspective.
