Calebs Girlfriend

This isn't a real good picture of Molly, Caleb's girlfriend but it's the only one i have she looks so much older then him, or is it because i really don't want to face the fact that hes old enough to have a girlfriend? I am sure this will be his first heart break and he will have many more after this one so Caleb this post is for you bud Your First Real Love....................at least thats what you tell me!!!!!!

The Bird

Meet Lacy, shes the newest member of our family she used to be my sister-in-laws bird. My sister-in-law Rita passed away last September unexpected. Last week my brother called me and ask if i might want the bird as he is working alot away from home and doesn't feel like he can give it the attention that it needs, i wanted to scream heck no but i couldn't, my brother has never ask me for anything in his life. I told myself just take the bird what the heck you only have 3 dogs a cat and another bird already in the house whats one more, but i also told myself not to get attached to this thing, his wife spent many hrs with this bird and it took me about a hr or 2 to fall in love with this thing, this is the smartest little bird i have ever came across. First off it doesn't peck you like my bird does it's very gentle and you can tell it's use to a woman's voice, we took her out of the cage the 2nd day and put her on this play ground thing they have on top of the cage, she walked up and down the latter done a few flips under the ladder very cool very impressing i thought. Lol it don't take alot to amuse me as you can tell, she loves to ride on your shoulder and was giving kiss's to Caleb today, her bird cage looks like she lives in the white house instead of my house she has a fancy house to be a bird i tell ya, she looks like she has make up on theres two big patches of orange on her face that looks like rouge . My cat try ed to attack her cage twice last night blade the dog stands guard at the bird cage, between a good husband wonderful grand kids and the animals i feel like i have a really good life.

A Crazy Week

This has been a crazy week around here, we have ball practice going on, cheerleader tryouts, you name it and it seems to be happening, last night i had kids going in all directions, 1 in the kitchen practicing cheers, 1 telling her to yell louder, 1 yelling with her at the top of his lungs, 1 was fixing his lunch for school today, and bringing me everything but the refrigerator to see if that's ok to take! Then i had the oldest one who can't find his JOCK STRAP ! Well where did you put it mema?, duhhhhhhhhhhhh i don't remember wearing it last i told him, we still haven't found it i think i packed it away last year but it may be easier to just go buy another one! 1 brings home a 50.00 form for summer Basketball Camp 1 brings home a 50.00 form for summer Volley Ball Camp, Then Hunter decides it's his turn for a bath, here he comes asking me will you please clean out my ears after my bath i said sure , i think it was 16 q-tips he brought me, i thought how dirty can your ears be boy when i just cleaned them 2 days ago, all the while Donnie is just sitting all relaxed and asking me how do you do this? I said i really don't know. Gotta Love these little dudes!!! Almost forgot to mention the 80 Candy Bars yet to be sold for the ball teams so i guess this will not slow down anytime soon.

I love this picture

I was looking threw some pictures today, like i had nothing else to do(: this is one
of my favorites which was taken in Sept of last year during the little fall festival
that we have in our little town. They were in the Doll and Pet Parade and they won.
Hayden is still this small he doesn't seem to grow no matter how much he eats! I keep
telling him he's a midget, he tell me don't go there like he really knows what that means
this child is a trip.

My Sister

2 years ago today i lost my older sister Mildred or as we called her Millie to cancer, I
really miss her today as i do almost everyday of my life. Me and her were very close even tho at the time we live 900 miles away, we could tell each other anything. I would get so tickled when she would call me at any hr as this didn't bother her after she had a few drinks, time was no concern to her, she was such a funny person, such a sweetheart, why God takes the good ones and leaves the bad ones i will never understand. So sis i am thinking about you today and I Love You Very Much...................

Do you ever cry mema?

Today the kids ask me do you ever cry mema? Well yes i do, they said what about
i didn't know how to answer them because most of my crying has been over them and
the way thy have been treated. So being the type person i am i replied oh i guess
just to clean out my eye sockets lol. They didn't question me any farther which is a good thing.
To be honest i have cry ed many times over the way there mother has acted, blaming myself for
many of her actions when i really no it's not my fault. But isn't that what a real mom does?
Worry about the children they bring into this world, i want so bad for my daughter to be the mom i know she once was, but the way it's looking that will never happen, now she has called and decided that i am no longer her mother, she hates me, wishes i was dead, for taking her kids from her and says none of this is her fault, that's enough to make any real mother cry, so yes kids i do cry and i am not ashamed of saying so.

Meet Sadie

I am posting this post for a close friend of mine so she can see Sadie, Sadie is Phil's dog.
And use to belong to Jodie his former girlfriend and him before the witch moved in and split them
up, don't worry Jodie everyone who views my blog knows all about Phil and the witch
girlfriend Annette! Anyway Sadie is now living with me and Donnie and has adjusted
very well, her favorite place is my couch where she snores very very loud! She has even
gotten use to being outside with out a fence altho one day she went missing and i found her
a block away at the little grocery store. My dogs even like her alto at times BG makes sure
Sadie knows who's still the boss! Jodie she love my cat, yep never thought you would see that
day i know. Sadie was dumped off at one of Phil's job sites he didn't pay her much attention
the first couple days, then he called Jodie to see if it was ok to bring her home, Jodie was all
excited and here comes Phil and the crew of Mexicans and Sadie was sitting right in the
middle of them, it was love at first sight for Jodie and Sadie, Jodie would take her for car rides
stopping and picking her up a biscuit! Jodie i miss you so much and will never forget the good
times me and you have shared! Sadie said to tell you hi mom and she Miss's you too.

You Got One!

Bub, i can't believe you got you a deer on your first hunt! You know i am not a fan of deer hunting but you sure did get a pretty one. I see it every morning stareing at me from the dineing room when i get up! Alway's remember how i was so afraid of you shooting a gun, i knew your were safe with Richard tho and he would watch out for you, I am gonna include this to your post so someday you will always remember what you told me, you told me that everything was dead quiet then you heard something inside your tree stand, at first you thought it was nothing but you kept hearing it, you then said you looked down and in a distant you saw your grandma Beale, wow this gave me chills because you explained what she looked like and what you described was just like she looked! Being 6 months old when she passed away there is no way you could have rememebed that, you said mema she was just standing there smileing at me! She was your Angel looking after you while i was away with papa in NC. and she will be your Angel looking after alway's! I love you!

Room For One More

My life just gets better by the moment! Today Donnie called his brother who was released about a month ago from the nursing home, he has been staying with there mother who god bless her is 84. Well it's not going to well, Phil can get around pretty good he has a walker and a wheel chair, his speech has really been affected by all this so you have to listen real close when you talk to him, seems like last week there mother's tooth fell out so her and Phil took a drive to the dentist on the other side of Raleigh, when they got there Alma (the mother) said to Phil OK i will wait out here for you go on in. She had forgotten all about where she was or what she was going for. This memory lost started about a year ago when she drove the wrong way down the street coming home from church, she is such a sweet lady my heart really goes out to her, Donnie's son is going to move her in with him so this leaves Phil with no one to help take care of him so sometime this month Donnie will be going to get him and bring him here. This will be a challenge in it's self but i know we can handle anything throw ed our way. Someone has to be there for him, him and Donnie has always been very close i want it to stay that way soooooooooo come on down uncle bill as i have always called him lol there's always room for 1 more.

To My Husband

Donnie, I just want to say that your my hero, your the rock that keep's this family together.
I love you so much more then word's could every say! We have been threw some really rought time's
thing's that we should not have went threw but you were there for me all the way. To be 62 year's old and take on 4 kid's say's alot about you babe! It's funny because when we both met i didn't even like you remember? ha! ha! You asked me to marry you after only 3 weeks i told you that you were crazy, you said yes i am crazy about you, and we got married the 4th week, it has lasted 21 years this July!
Your the most honest man i have ever known, I admire you for that, i no it almost killed you when Phil got sick but being the person that you are you stood by him, fighting for what was best for him even tho at times you didn't know if it was the right choice to be makeing, and you will contiune fighting for him because that's what brother's do, I am very proud of you for handleing Phil's girlfriend the way you did you know me i would have jack slapped her long ago lol not you, being the calm and laid back person you are you took her down step by step . Anyway babe just want you to know i love you so much and alway's will , even at 62 you still got it babe so keep doing what you been doing! I love you.......marge
