This is Kaylee on her 6th birthday. As you can tell, she is missing her two front teeth. They fell out just after Christmas! She will tell you that she LOVES to snuggle with Daddy and play games with him. They are both so much alike in the way they think and talk. Mommy is glad that Daddy enjoys games because Kaylee is always wanting to play a game! These are the centerpieces I made. I was pleased with how they turned out. The whole crowd filled the dance floor. Such a fun moment! .

Life is like a box of chocolates. Saturday, February 2, 2013. Sixteen years ago today, I became a mom. This has been the most challenging, wonderful and rewarding role! My sweet 16 year old is becoming a wonderful woman of God! She is great with children, is very compassionate and has a contagious laugh. Happy Birthday, Jordan! Thursday, January 10, 2013.

In Flanders fields the poppies blow. Between the crosses, row on row,. That mark our place; and in the sky. The larks, still bravely singing, fly. Scarce heard amid the guns below. We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,. Loved and were loved, and now we lie. To you from failing hands we throw. The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die. We shall not sleep, though poppies grow.
