I thought I would do better than I have.
This summer: I love being with the babies. I love my girls being with their friends. I love reading a book that you can't put down. I love all the fruit that is in the summer!!

1. Thankful for our friends; Braunds
2. Thankful that my dad and mom do not live far away
3. Glad when the babies see me come in the door they come my way.
4. Happy for summer fun like the beach.
5. And the zoo

1. I am thankful that chocolate was invented.
2. Glad our vegetable garden is growing.
3. And the flowers are pretty.
4. I was able to pay the city bill.
5. Thankful that the girls help me laugh.

Every day post--I need to change that to every week--maybe
1. Thankful that it was warm enough to go to the beach
2. Thankful that I worked 5 days last week.
3. Thankful that Miranda's foot is fine.

4. Crying made me feel better when I had Miranda in my arms

New Computer

It is good to have my own computer again!! I had a laptop that didn't drink water too well and now it has "drowned" I thought Daryl and I could share--but we step in each other's way too much! Hope everyone had a good weekend. The girls made us Valentine's supper and that was so special and cute. (leftovers, but hey--it was precious) Tonight is popcorn, summer sausage, cheese and tea. Have a good week!

Vacation

Well, the girls go back to school tomm. I think they have had a good break. It was to start on Christmas Eve day but they got to start vacation one day earlier. Christmas Eve bible study was cancelled. Christmas we had dinner with Richard and Joan's family. It was informal and short. We haven't been with those cousins for a long time. I took Miranda ice skating 2 times, one of those times was during an open house reception for Greg and Jessica. (Kathy's son) They got married during the week in the cities. Anika (Darrell and Julia's) daughter came home with us and spent the next 4 days with us. The girls played super well together and they had lots of fun!! New Year's Eve, the wind or snow can't remember cancelled our plans to get to bible study. Then on New Year's Day we spent at my folks with Brians. We ate and played games all day. The next evening Brains and my folks came here for supper and a few games. We planned on going to D.L hotel on Sat. and then a special mtg on Sun. and snow changed our minds. Instead we played more games and watched a favorite movie "Cheaper by the dozen". I know National Geographic has more educational videos!! Today the kids were fighting more than usual I thought--so tomm. I can a day to rest? looks like a town day--ugh--
