They Shall call me Blessed

This post is dedicated to my blessings: Lacey, Olivia and Tahnee.

I have been pondering lately how incredibly fortunate and blessed I am to have three amazing daughters. They are all leading productive lives and doing their best to deal with whatever life throws at them. They are hard workers, good wives, kind hearted and accepting, creative and loving.

Motherhood began for me at the age of 20, and I didn't have a clue what to do. Somehow through all the mistakes and "on the job training", my girls turned out to be the best daughters a mother could have.

Thought for the day: A daughter is a little girl who grows up to be a friend

Signs of Spring

As I sit here, the birds are singing; the grass is green. We've come a long way since my first blog post in the dead of winter. I absolutely love spring because every thing is so new and exciting. All of nature comes back to life acting as if this is the first time it has ever happened. This week my daffodils bloomed, and I was able to hang clothes on the line. There is nothing like sleeping in sheets dried in the sun and wind. Soon we will be into the heat and busyness of summer, but I really want to savor every moment of spring until it's gone again.

Thought for the day: It's spring fever, that is what the name of it is, and when you've got it-you want-oh, you don't quite know what it is you want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so. Mark Twain
