A Poem...

I am taking a giant leap posting this. This is just something I wrote last night, in about 1 minute, while I was making supper. It's just a deep thought, creative outlet. I have NEVER written a poem other than Roses are Red and I thought it was decent enough to share.

Who's gonna listen?
Who's gonna care?
Who's gonna hug you,
When nobody's there?

Who do you turn to?
Where do you go?
Who to you look to,
When you feel so alone?

All bottled up,
and ready to burst, BUT
bearing your soul,
leaves you open to hurt.

Alone in the tub,
with tissues and tears.
The only thing solved
is feelings pushed to the rear.

Haircuts

Things to discuss...

1) Gardening
2) John n Kate plus 8
3) Self esteem
4) General update of kids

I was going to post on some of the above topics tonight but alas now I am tired. I watched a great special on one of my favorite singer, George Strait. Seriously, he is sooooo awesome. I watched the special both times it aired and will probably watch it again if its aired on CMT.

The girls are headed for haircuts tomorrow and then to Nana and Grandads for a visit. Hopefully with a couple days alone (well with one child) I can discuss some of the topics filling my brain these days.

I hope everyone is doing well.

Here Chickie, chickie...

I sound so nasty to Ashley in this video I almost don't want to post it. I tried to scare her into putting the chick down by making it as though mama hen was coming to get her. It was an idle and pointless threat because the mama is relaxed now and the girls are just not scared of chickens. They put food in their hands and feed my crazy, ravenous broilers. Silly chickens, silly girls. Anyway enjoy a little video of mama hen and her chicks outside.

A clean fridge...

is a beautiful thing. Yesterday I did a grocery shop and decided that before putting everything away...the fridge needed to be thoroughly cleaned. I took all the shelves and trays out and washed them in the sink. I took extra items and placed them in our fridge downstairs. I threw out expired items. I consolidated items. You get the picture.

My husband likes a nice, clean fridge so the pictures are proof for him ;-) Yes I am being a little bit of a smartass ;-)

The Graduate

Today I went to school to take photos of the graduating kindergarten class. What fun! I am only posting pictures of my graduate. I made a big photographer bad when I didn't notice the tape on the top of Natasha's hat. Oh well it goes well with the big scratch on her face.

Sleeping Angel

I just have to state for the record that my daughters are still beautiful and I love them very much. I am having a guilty conscience about all the chicken pictures and Tyson pictures...and no daughter pictures. I love you girls!!!

Sleeping Tyson. He fell asleep sucking his thumb, woke up and then fell asleep holding onto his little elephant. In the past 2 weeks he has really changed to me. He is awake more, grabbing for things (and holding on), cooing, etc. He is still small but seems to have changed from an tiny infant to a growing baby.
