The most special gift

I got many things I loved for Christmas-- so I don't want to offend anyone who may have given me a wonderful gift. But this year one present trumped all... It was a recipe box made just for me by my mom....

And what made it even more special was the sweet poem she wrote just for me to put on the top...

Maybe one day I will be able to read it without tearing up.

My Baby is growing up...

I am so proud that he is learning his letters and writing his name....



But that means he is starting Kindergarten soon..In fact--I registered him last week......sigh...

A New Guinness World Record

Worlds Oldest Leash Kid.....

PS--We did check to make sure this kid was okay before we took the picture......

I did it!!!

I survived the winter storm of 2010 in NC without going to the store for milk and bread before hand-- and it wasn't because we had a load of milk and bread-- we actually needed both--I just protested

So there you go-- tell your friends-- you really can survive the storm without milk and bread--so no need to rob the stores of all of their supply-- there may be a little baby somewhere that really needs that milk on a snowy weekend--

By the way-- I would advise to stock up on toilet paper-- I mean seriously why are the shelves not empty of toilet paper at winter storm time-- I would think that would be quite vital.....

Next winter storm I think I will rob the shelves of all of the toilet paper and get everyone in a panic and start the new trend of getting milk, bread and toilet paper....
