Caleb saw me crying and said mama I am going to pray for you. He said Dear God please be with my mama and make her feel better. That has to be one of the proudest moments for me. As a mother I often think I fail at times but at that moment I realized I did something right. I have a 3 year old that knew to turn to God when he or someone else needed help. Let me tell you I was so thankful and I immediately felt better. Thank you Caleb.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div>Crimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13235698039801581661noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1325672277484363220.post-39146766329337083172009-07-05T10:09:00.002-05:002009-07-05T10:15:20.624-05:00Thanking the LordI am so distraught about the family who just lost their son tragically. Please remember the Holladay family who lost their son Saturday. The family has been on my mind all day and night. I can't imagine loosing one of my kids. I know this happens but to loose your child in the manner they lost their son is awful. I do wonder why this and why this family but I know the Lord will have the last say on the person who took their son away from them. <br />I sometimes think how hard I have it at times with all the screaming and fussing but some people would love to hear that again from their child. The closest I have been to loosing a child is when Caylin was giving a 50/50 chance of living and put on a vent. To see your child in that situation and knowing you have no control is the worst experience. When you look at your kids tonight you thank the Lord for giving them to you and give them a big kiss and hug and never let a day go by without telling them you love them. You don't realize how good you have it till you don't have it anymore.Crimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13235698039801581661noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1325672277484363220.post-52466361509959918042009-07-01T20:15:00.003-05:002009-07-01T20:17:58.959-05:00The Little ThingsToday was very tiring. The kids were extra fussy today and the day did not seem it would end. But to give me a break from the challenging day I got to go out and eat with some teacher friends. It was a nice break and relaxing dinner. I enjoy those little moments. All the moms out there be sure to make some time for yourself. <br /><br />Today will be better.Crimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13235698039801581661noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1325672277484363220.post-88915319004895880582009-06-28T20:55:00.002-05:002009-06-28T21:02:35.483-05:00Hot Summer Days<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgablkXM8m_rIXujAk2dbIFykOGZO5ruyrwDLx7_BX45jg4pt0mVd18B3H2PepJjEmCchY-YmFCtBIzlWWrSzd7nTFmruI7BOGpdaJIWwiE2vcGKnsfyLw2r5BkLqxwh0wLojMJsqcIzOQ/s1600-h/DSCF1979.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352563995156153058" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgablkXM8m_rIXujAk2dbIFykOGZO5ruyrwDLx7_BX45jg4pt0mVd18B3H2PepJjEmCchY-YmFCtBIzlWWrSzd7nTFmruI7BOGpdaJIWwiE2vcGKnsfyLw2r5BkLqxwh0wLojMJsqcIzOQ/s320/DSCF1979.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO44ArMRHmnLMNUdvSKk7RbVqkQaxd8sxqcin2iq_QibQ7oBHvU1EXMNli20nw-65-fQHU4agxDGu6weexqxwhyx-gUvHbRrIaxBnPI5SU3sKObpL5Hw2PUZiZiHp1_zuSI8MxMb1Kd0k/s1600-h/DSCF1981.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352563988681914530" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhO44ArMRHmnLMNUdvSKk7RbVqkQaxd8sxqcin2iq_QibQ7oBHvU1EXMNli20nw-65-fQHU4agxDGu6weexqxwhyx-gUvHbRrIaxBnPI5SU3sKObpL5Hw2PUZiZiHp1_zuSI8MxMb1Kd0k/s320/DSCF1981.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4MOmXMRNl5Csa58em1vG2EHSMMcq56o5RbVWI-5T4NJNH53Sdj4nZODxet1KM6YXtwpmL-gzQolx00AsSLVl9bjckFZT-Lqj6iybMdiHBGCcscR0rosWojloVxRjZz15grMbHFr30vsI/s1600-h/DSCF1975.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5352563983873539170" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4MOmXMRNl5Csa58em1vG2EHSMMcq56o5RbVWI-5T4NJNH53Sdj4nZODxet1KM6YXtwpmL-gzQolx00AsSLVl9bjckFZT-Lqj6iybMdiHBGCcscR0rosWojloVxRjZz15grMbHFr30vsI/s320/DSCF1975.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div>The days have been so hot that the swimming pool looked real tempting.

Each day we learn a new skill. I am so proud of him. Yesterday I introduced the letter A but we are learning the sounds first instead of the letter name. He could pick out the letter A in a book and say its sound. Today we went over our letter sounds and vocabulary and did math. He can count up to 21 and knows all his colors and most of his alphabet. I introduced patterns and he could tell me what was supp<img class="gl_photo" alt="Add Image" src="http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif" border="0" />ose to come next. He probably got 2 out of 5 but I was very proud of him. We learned about Adam and Eve during our Bible story and everything this week revolves around the letter A. He really thrives with structure and one on one time. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgatHC7FHhExo3Gp_5AZwoiQCljDHWrNkjCLlpFPAvpVgUn_pQvK83TQrPmnxW35v3xwritrdFfyC1dTfbuInVXCmvA6mY1omhdC-BE4XtlbsEYUxTp-huNJoi4QauEpVzv2BtjbPxrYU/s1600-h/DSCF1968.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345345744839905074" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgatHC7FHhExo3Gp_5AZwoiQCljDHWrNkjCLlpFPAvpVgUn_pQvK83TQrPmnxW35v3xwritrdFfyC1dTfbuInVXCmvA6mY1omhdC-BE4XtlbsEYUxTp-huNJoi4QauEpVzv2BtjbPxrYU/s320/DSCF1968.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div>We are working on patterns.

Despite the new bedroom we didn't have a bathroom on that end of the house so Dave and his dad decide to make us one. I am so excited because they did a great job.

It ranges from pushing each other over for a certain toy that they only play with for 2 seconds, to sharing with everyone, or running away. A chaotic as it may be I am so happy for the simple peaceful moments. Take a look at our playtime.<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-MJGUk_xHwppBP4e2Dld7eqXUOhwLO2IcpDfmpXzsKF2FA_hGoW_8Hw8yUJAnbhTXxkgc73q53KPPanwbde8r1Ros3le2y5yzQrRa-GZmzEMB3cjZM5qbzMJQlot4PG2Gjug85nJD-pY/s1600-h/DSCF1927.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340656219806676786" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 247px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 177px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-MJGUk_xHwppBP4e2Dld7eqXUOhwLO2IcpDfmpXzsKF2FA_hGoW_8Hw8yUJAnbhTXxkgc73q53KPPanwbde8r1Ros3le2y5yzQrRa-GZmzEMB3cjZM5qbzMJQlot4PG2Gjug85nJD-pY/s320/DSCF1927.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Kisses and Love<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQKqkN70zKyQpspTSoZbb4Sv6rjh0VV7KFg_nMyX1BQGq-s2ONyJ89pVtepZuoKocmIg-SxJD2hTJhhW-Kure45gLchKiNmt9CbqdhdbGpxECdEMOvlbuCckKLmtMajcQJwy8nH_wd6Gw/s1600-h/DSCF1929.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340656218365798850" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 236px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 187px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQKqkN70zKyQpspTSoZbb4Sv6rjh0VV7KFg_nMyX1BQGq-s2ONyJ89pVtepZuoKocmIg-SxJD2hTJhhW-Kure45gLchKiNmt9CbqdhdbGpxECdEMOvlbuCckKLmtMajcQJwy8nH_wd6Gw/s320/DSCF1929.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />Someone got Caylin's toy<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqTpLHfVhb6Srk2-C4u6ZMCkp9D1ycroCJUdUodmPgr49JSd71vAVGPl_CWLWtFoKKgb82gEELgiDObvUlvpLiNMqujbrduIIhpKy8d7OCyAtRKgGjfj4JtkywkOcVnPN7PqxCvH9ksZs/s1600-h/DSCF1948.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340655346908021154" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 237px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 169px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqTpLHfVhb6Srk2-C4u6ZMCkp9D1ycroCJUdUodmPgr49JSd71vAVGPl_CWLWtFoKKgb82gEELgiDObvUlvpLiNMqujbrduIIhpKy8d7OCyAtRKgGjfj4JtkywkOcVnPN7PqxCvH9ksZs/s320/DSCF1948.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />Sharing<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_1FfxhIg7pTVU26Jl6h5u0oCEIHhyphenhyphenbuadJbuUBvAsFvXwHqBN03InQJHMRb82sI_OLTQ3iDf4ZbafsHN-aWz0yuXwqR2FAuS-iQETeCywhTgYYfi6XEYfDRU8bD4_RFD1o5DIlv04S24/s1600-h/DSCF1951.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340654327769457106" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 242px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 177px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_1FfxhIg7pTVU26Jl6h5u0oCEIHhyphenhyphenbuadJbuUBvAsFvXwHqBN03InQJHMRb82sI_OLTQ3iDf4ZbafsHN-aWz0yuXwqR2FAuS-iQETeCywhTgYYfi6XEYfDRU8bD4_RFD1o5DIlv04S24/s320/DSCF1951.JPG" border="0" /></a>Dress UpCrimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13235698039801581661noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1325672277484363220.post-33864182783211316642009-05-24T20:07:00.002-05:002009-05-24T20:09:29.680-05:00We have another WALKERFinally Colby has started taking steps.

He ran 103.0 fever Saturday and was diagnosed with a right ear infection. He has been having screaming fits and is very irritable. It has been very stressful with all the crying and the others feed off from it as well. Please pray that I will stay calm and compassionate. The screaming is awful to hear and you just want to make the pain go away. He is on antibotics but it usually takes the whole week before he is back to himself.

Caylin is obsessed with splashing her hand in the potty water, it is gross. She waddles in the bathroom when I am in there and opens up the lid and has a field day. Colby is obsessed with the broom and how it works and Caleb is obsessed with me sleeping by him so he can go to sleep at night. I am not sure what my obsession would be???

Colby was still eating and laughing away. I figured that Dave was making a funny face but peeped around the corner and noticed he was playing with Caleb.

It is amazing to see the little things that make our kids so happy. <br /></div>Crimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13235698039801581661noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1325672277484363220.post-6197986753116486272009-04-10T19:41:00.004-05:002009-04-11T08:31:16.246-05:00Easter Parade and Misc<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqJlGuHe38zKCEEIDbptlmoSq-pzk89iH-IGLtE2IewuEh00fBI-xZgJPMvgt5x-rU1RBeHwMqvaaIKng-8AU0vcVhSJWu11ZQ80Mz0HInWjuOzjcym2MDG8TOkzlIOgKziJBFwZDg74c/s1600-h/DSCF1804.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323230230791557170" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 241px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 168px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqJlGuHe38zKCEEIDbptlmoSq-pzk89iH-IGLtE2IewuEh00fBI-xZgJPMvgt5x-rU1RBeHwMqvaaIKng-8AU0vcVhSJWu11ZQ80Mz0HInWjuOzjcym2MDG8TOkzlIOgKziJBFwZDg74c/s320/DSCF1804.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxieNtnNEbc1dgoOju1Ntl-PgZDn_2kVMspTX6F_n4nAHM1suOSFxFPCinL5GcrxZu0ujO4mrE4lfGFG5e_XvNP5Gf0Qfe2dZE5cO6RJai8jvVHJx-vfd_BIvPxWp3cThGwIA1paUwDtY/s1600-h/DSCF1801.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323230223440026946" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 244px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 189px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxieNtnNEbc1dgoOju1Ntl-PgZDn_2kVMspTX6F_n4nAHM1suOSFxFPCinL5GcrxZu0ujO4mrE4lfGFG5e_XvNP5Gf0Qfe2dZE5cO6RJai8jvVHJx-vfd_BIvPxWp3cThGwIA1paUwDtY/s320/DSCF1801.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>Caleb had his first Easter parade at school and of course was the most handsome one there besides Colby.

I would love to hear others solutions and options on this matter. I totally understand her dilemma. I too feel like my kids are craving my attention. When I get home they are all on me and wanting me to hold them and that is hard to divide your attention between little babies and then get a little down time for yourself after a long day. I wish I had the luxury to work only parttime but I don't think that will ever happen. I enjoy working outside the home and it gives me a little bit of an identity for myself and the extra money does help out. It does make me sad that sometimes my kids misbehaves and maybe it is for attention eventhough it is negative. I am hard on them at times but it is because I worry so much that if I am not then they will turn out like some of my kids I teach at school and I do not want that. I am glad I get the summers off with them though. I love them and why didn't someone tell me that parenting was so hard???Crimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13235698039801581661noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1325672277484363220.post-16882609113784645882009-04-01T18:05:00.002-05:002009-04-01T18:07:41.647-05:00No More BottlesWe have offically gotten rid of all our baby bottles and are strictly on sippy cups for all children.

We had the babies party last Saturday. It was a barn yard theme. They had cupcakes and received lots of toys. They both got a baby swimming pool together from Dave and me. Caylin received a baby stroller and baby dolls and other goodies. Colby got a train toy and outfits. They both got a picnic table to play on as well.<br /><div id="slideshow_div" style="VISIBILITY: visible"><img id="slideshowPicture" style="WIDTH: 249px; POSITION: relative; HEIGHT: 183px" height="360" src="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp4323%3B%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D3232%3B543547%3B%3Cnu0mrj" width="480" border="0" name="slideshowPicture" lrp="232323232%7Fjwvs%3C%3E%3Dzo5%2Fotf31jrd50vhr31uqcshluk0fqp%3C%3A2%3B2%3EfiuBRdvk%3F%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D3232%3B543547%3B%3Cnu0mrjAVvrtdihEhnoPdoh%3Fgo5232%3C" isvideo="false" caption="Crim" imgid="735366434" imgoid="735366434" isownedone="true" tnurl="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp43237%3Evq%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D3232%3B543547%3B%3Cvq0mrj" tnwidth="96" isfavorite="false" pictureoid="735366434" pictureowneroid="7193883" incart="false" /></div><div style="VISIBILITY: visible"></div><div id="slideshow_div" style="VISIBILITY: visible"><img id="slideshowPicture" style="WIDTH: 261px; POSITION: relative; HEIGHT: 184px" height="360" src="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp43235%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D3232%3B49897%3B87nu0mrj" width="480" border="0" name="slideshowPicture" lrp="232323232%7Fjwvs%3C%3E%3Dzo5%2Fotf31jrd50vhr31uqcshluk0fqp%3C%3A2%3B2%3EfiuBRdvk%3F%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D3232%3B49897%3B87nu0mrjAVvrtdihEhnoPdoh%3Fgo52326" isvideo="false" caption="colby6" imgid="711444221" imgoid="711444221" isownedone="true" tnurl="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp43236%3Evq%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D3232%3B49897%3B87vq0mrj" tnwidth="96" isfavorite="false" pictureoid="711444221" pictureowneroid="7193883" incart="false" /> Colby</div><div style="VISIBILITY: visible"></div><div id="slideshow_div" style="VISIBILITY: visible"><img id="slideshowPicture" style="WIDTH: 258px; POSITION: relative; HEIGHT: 249px" height="360" src="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp43237%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D3232%3B49895%3C78nu0mrj" width="480" border="0" name="slideshowPicture" lrp="232323232%7Fjwvs%3C%3E%3Dzo5%2Fotf31jrd50vhr31uqcshluk0fqp%3C%3A2%3B2%3EfiuBRdvk%3F%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D3232%3B49895%3C78nu0mrjAVvrtdihEhnoPdoh%3Fgo52328" isvideo="false" caption="caylin2" imgid="711442734" imgoid="711442734" isownedone="true" tnurl="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp43239%3Evq%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D3232%3B49895%3C78vq0mrj" tnwidth="96" isfavorite="false" pictureoid="711442734" pictureowneroid="7193883" incart="false" /> Caylin</div><br />I am so blessed to have these angels. I can remember the day perfectly. I was put on bedrest and I was on bed rest starting my second week. I was going to the doctor at least twice a week. It was March the 10th, a Monday, and I had been having contractions but nothing too horrible. I made it to the doctor and was dilated to a 3. My doctor said I was not going anywhere because I was in active labor. I was admitted to the hospital. It was a slow labor process. I finally dilated to a 7 the next day, yes I said the next day, it was a long labor. The twins labor was much easier than Calebs because I went in labor on my own. The hospital had tried to stop my contractions Monday but it didn't work and they were coming. I was taken to the operationg room and didn't get to be in the birthing room just in case I had to have an emergency c-section but I didn't have to. It was an easy delivery and each baby came out fine. Colby weighed in at 4lb 9oz. Caylin did not cry when she came out and had to have oxygen. She weighed in at 4lb 4oz. They were so tiny. They stayed in the NICU for two weeks as feeder and growers. They did great and had no prematurity problems. They were born 4 1/2 weeks early. Their due date was April 16th. I can't believe they were so small at one time but now a big boy and girl. They had a great birthday and it was a success.<br /><div id="slideshow_div" style="VISIBILITY: visible"><img id="slideshowPicture" style="WIDTH: 304px; POSITION: relative; HEIGHT: 218px" height="360" src="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp43332%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3B858%3Anu0mrj" width="480" border="0" name="slideshowPicture" lrp="232323232%7Fjwvs%3C%3E%3Dzo5%2Fotf41jrd50vhr31uqcshluk0fqp%3C%3A2%3B2%3EfiuBRdvk%3F%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3B858%3Anu0mrjAVvrtdihEhnoPdoh%3Fgo52423" isvideo="false" caption="DSCN0150" imgid="1324093977" imgoid="1324093977" isownedone="true" tnurl="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp432%3C%3B%3Evq%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3B858%3Avq0mrj" tnwidth="96" isfavorite="false" pictureoid="1324093977" pictureowneroid="7193883" incart="false" /> <div id="slideshow_div" style="VISIBILITY: visible"><img id="slideshowPicture" style="WIDTH: 283px; POSITION: relative; HEIGHT: 239px" height="360" src="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp432%3C2%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3B857%3Cnu0mrj" width="480" border="0" name="slideshowPicture" lrp="232323232%7Fjwvs%3C%3E%3Dzo5%2Fotf41jrd50vhr31uqcshluk0fqp%3C%3A2%3B2%3EfiuBRdvk%3F%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3B857%3Cnu0mrjAVvrtdihEhnoPdoh%3Fgo523%3B3" isvideo="false" caption="DSCN0141" imgid="1324093969" imgoid="1324093969" isownedone="true" tnurl="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp432%3B5%3Evq%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3B857%3Cvq0mrj" tnwidth="96" isfavorite="false" pictureoid="1324093969" pictureowneroid="7193883" incart="false" /> She LOVES to eat!</div><div style="VISIBILITY: visible"></div><div style="VISIBILITY: visible"><div id="slideshow_div" style="VISIBILITY: visible"><img id="slideshowPicture" style="WIDTH: 269px; POSITION: relative; HEIGHT: 240px" height="360" src="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp432%3C9%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3A44%3A%3Anu0mrj" width="480" border="0" name="slideshowPicture" lrp="232323232%7Fjwvs%3C%3E%3Dzo5%2Fotf41jrd50vhr31uqcshluk0fqp%3C%3A2%3B2%3EfiuBRdvk%3F%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3A44%3A%3Anu0mrjAVvrtdihEhnoPdoh%3Fgo523%3B%3A" isvideo="false" caption="DSCN0142" imgid="1324075925" imgoid="1324075925" isownedone="true" tnurl="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp432%3A8%3Evq%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3A44%3A%3Avq0mrj" tnwidth="96" isfavorite="false" pictureoid="1324075925" pictureowneroid="7193883" incart="false" /> <div id="slideshow_div" style="VISIBILITY: visible"><img id="slideshowPicture" style="WIDTH: 289px; POSITION: relative; HEIGHT: 274px" height="408" src="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp432%3B8%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3A44%3B4nu0mrj" width="480" border="0" name="slideshowPicture" lrp="232323232%7Fjwvs%3C%3E%3Dzo5%2Fotf41jrd50vhr31uqcshluk0fqp%3C%3A2%3B2%3EfiuBRdvk%3F%3Enu%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3A44%3B4nu0mrjAVvrtdihEhnoPdoh%3Fgo523%3A9" isvideo="false" caption="DSCN0152" imgid="1324075929" imgoid="1324075929" isownedone="true" tnurl="http://images.photos.walmart.com/232323232%7Ffp432%3C7%3Evq%3D3239%3E3%3C5%3E%3A%3B5%3EWSNRCG%3D323384%3B6%3A44%3B4vq0mrj" tnwidth="96" isfavorite="false" pictureoid="1324075929" pictureowneroid="7193883" incart="false" /> 1 years old</div></div><div style="VISIBILITY: visible"></div></div></div>Crimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13235698039801581661noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1325672277484363220.post-86819390646024703912009-03-01T13:18:00.004-06:002009-03-26T13:59:04.594-05:00Leave it to Maxine (the cartoon character)<div>Leave it to Maxine to come up with a solution for the mess that America is in economically now<br /><br /></div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>I bought a bird feeder. I hungit on my back porch and filledit with seed. What a beauty ofa bird feeder it was, as I filled it lovingly with seed. Within aweek we had hundreds of birdstaking advantage of thecontinuous flow of free andeasily accessible food.But then the birds startedbuilding nests in the boardsof the patio, above the table,and next to the barbecue. Then came the poop. It waseverywhere: on the patio tile,the chairs, the table ..everywhere!Then some of the birdsturned mean. They woulddive bomb me and try topeck me even though I hadfed them out of my ownpocket.And others birds wereboisterous and loud. Theysat on the feeder andsquawked and screamed atall hours of the day and nightand demanded that I fill itwhen it got low on food.After a while, I couldn't evensit on my own back porchanymore. So I took down thebird feeder and in three daysthe birds were gone. I cleanedup their mess and took downthe many nests they had builtall over the patio.Soon, the back yard was likeit used to be .... quiet, serene....and no one demanding theirrights to a free meal.Now let's see.Our government gives outfree food, subsidized housing,free medical care and freeeducation, and allows anyoneborn here to be an automaticcitizen.Then the illegals came by thetens of thousands. Suddenlyour taxes went up to pay forfree services; small apartmentsare housing 5 families; youhave to wait 6 hours to be seenby an emergency room doctor;your child's second grade class isbehind other schools becauseover half the class doesn't speakEnglish.Corn Flakes now come in abilingual box; I have to'press one ' to hear my banktalk to me in English, andpeople waving flags otherthan 'Old Glory' aresquawking and screamingin the streets, demandingmore rights and free liberties.Just my opinion, but maybeit's time for the governmentto take down the bird feeder. If you agree, pass it on; if not,continue cleaning up the poop </div>Crimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13235698039801581661noreply@blogger.com2
