I feel blessed . . .

I know this may sound cheesy but today was not the best day. When I've had a day like today it is so easy for me to come home and complain. Thankfully, tonight was one of those nights when I was home by myself and Keith didn't have to listen to me. This gave me time to think about these things I've listed above and be so incredibly thankful and I do feel so blessed. I guess it has been a good night.

In other news . . .

We are going to be GRANDPARENTS!!!! We have two grandbabies coming - one in January 2011 and the other in March 2011. We are SO excited. The January baby is a boy and we are waiting to find out what the March baby is. A lot of people have said, "Oh, I bet you are hoping for a girl!" Well, in all honesty, I'm not sure. The babies are going to be about eight weeks apart and having two boys would be great but then having one of each would be great also. I'm so glad that the baby's gender has already been decided and we just have to wait. The ultrasound will be in October so we have about four more weeks of the "unknowns."

The January baby's ultrasound was fantastic. I am amazed at how clear these things are now. I had one ultrasound 34 years ago and it just looked like it was snowing to me. Check out how clear they are now!

He is so beautiful!

More later as more becomes available.

About Boo

Sadly, we had to move Boo Bear up north to a friend of mine's family farm. Boo had decided to mark his territory, starting with my rugs, then my wood floor and finally up against the wall. He is in perfect health so it wasn't a health issue. I will do almost anything for these kits but that was where I drew the line.

This broke my heart and the girls are still looking for him from time to time. However, they are playing with each other more. They don't worry about being tackled by the 22 pound moose anymore.

Last I heard he was running the farm, catching mice and doing well. He has food and water plus a warm place to sleep at night.

Bye Boo Bear - you are a sweetheart.
