Kiki

Last year we adopted two cats to help with the voles who keep ruining our yard.  Kiki is our orange tabby. The family loves Kiki.  She will let the kids do just about anything to her.  She came right over and laid in Elijah's lap.  I was shocked because eventually 'Lijah get too rough and starts grabbing her fur and mauling her.  But this day we were outside she just wanted to be around us and get her lovins'.

An Angel Among Us

I feel bad that I don't blog about my other children enough.  A perfect example is Anna.   She just quietly goes on growing up before our eyes.  She is a hard worker and a great helper.  As all our children she has some issues we work through but she is such a great girl.  At school, all of Anna's teachers love her.  She is quiet and works hard in class to get her assignments done.  She loves her little brothers and is always a big help.  What an angel!

Beauty is Pain

Well this last week Sadie had braces put on.  Her mouth has hurt so much.  They don't warn you about that.  If teenage mood swings weren't enough.  Just add constant pain to it.  It has made me appreciate the days with just the teenage mood swings.  Poor Sadie her mouth has finally stopped hurting so much.

Photographer In the Making

One of Sadie's favorite hobbies is taking pictures.  This is one she captured from our deck.

More Elijah.

How can I not post these pictures? 

You Win

What is it with Elijah and sinks?  Rather than fighting it, I let the boys play in the sink.  You would have thought they were at the swimming pool.  If you attempt this at home have several large towels on hand. 

Spring is on It's Way!

This may not be here just yet....

 

But it will be soon because this is already starting to happen to me....

Which means soon these will be blooming....I love tulips!
