Soldiers & their families touch my heart in a big way. I never thought I would be married to a man who would be deployed for 13 months. So I was a lucky one because he only had to go one time, because his reserve service contract was up. But on a very small scale, I can feel what what you feel. & I wish you all the strength to get through it.. Its hard when he/she is gone & its hard having them home. Oy. I pray for all of you. I pray the government honors you as much.
I love this house, I love old red house & red barns the dot the landscape from my seat next to the window, in the smallest plane ever. BAM! I kept waiting for the pilot to say, “don’t worry folks, that was just a bumble bee”
Anyway, even though this house needs a paint job, just think how it looked in its glory days.
I’ve been eating S’s birthday cake with ice cream for breakfast. I’ve posted another picture of her about to blow out her candles but that picture was last year. This year, without complaint, she gave up her birthday because I was in the hospital & I told her when I feel better she will have her cake. Her birthday was April 20th, she finally got this chocolate through chocolate cake May 25. Thank you S. for waiting so I can be there with you. May all your wishes come true. ( Unless you want to be a rockstar or a pop singer.)
I only remember that he was like this from pictures. His older self seems to erase all memory of the sweetness. His older self is sweet, but when we talk its about war, lego, blowing up stuff. So this is a picture to remind all mom’s that a long time ago (or now) your son would find you in a crowd after he stepped on the home plate, just to smile & wave.
Maybe it’s a trick to lure in its victims. Someone told me it used to be a cool plant/garden store. Maybe they left behind a venus fly trap & it grew so big, that it sings like in the movie!
this “crick” is at the edge of our property. When we moved in we all climbed down the steep embankment to look for cool stuff. I was telling a woman how wonderful it is down there. She told me there are diamond back snakes & other creepy crawlies. When S. & H. ask to go down there, I tell them, if they see one to scream & run or throw rocks at it, make sure you can describe it & if it bites you, then I’ll take you to the closest hospital. No use worrying about things that may happen, not if you know what to do. I love that kid
Hobbes is cutest while sleeping. And I have no life. Saturday afternoon spent chasing anything that moved. I did go out by myself, first time I’ve driven in four weeks.
purple, pink, magenta. He can be in that room & still look as cool as ever
Green leaves in front of cactus. No color in this part of the green house, other then green. He must be feeling blue
Hole. Pretty glass. Its like a big tough guy( 2100f kiln) that likes to arrange flowers (delicate glass)
