DAVEY'S DELIGHT....

Spoke with our grandson Davey last Saturday. He was all excited for his brother Joey, who won 2nd place at the Regional Science Fair. Everyone was excited and talking loud in the background. Davey got flustered and said,'Do you mind, I'm speaking to Nana and I can't hear myself think!'....I had to laugh. With that, he shared with me how he's been carrying around this large '10th Anniversary' book of Calvin & Hobbes, so he can read it whenever he gets a chance. Typical 10 year old, I could just picture him with his backpack full of goodies: Book,art-notebook,pen,pencil,small hand-held toy,snacks,water-bottle,etc. It's an adventure in Davey's back-pack....wish I were there to share.

Remember: Always carry your favorite adventures with you....you never know, when you'll have quiet time to share your joys with loved ones.

HAPPYBIRTHDAY FIONA!!!

Woke up this morning to children's laughter....
The girls are home! my neighbor has twin girls and my best friend Fiona, she's an answered prayer (prayed God would send a little red head-done:)
I peeked outside to see Fiona's red head and her sister Audrey (Juliet was inside). Fiona was riding her new bike, it was her birthday. I ran inside and grabbed her gift-bag with a plastic backpack full of plastic dishes & scarfs for her and her sisters, too. As I flew down the steps, I realized I had my bedroom slippers and they got wet. With a smiling heart,I gave Fiona her gift. She thanked me and said, "I'm five years old"!
I'm so glad to have such darling sweethearts living next door, she is like a fairey *twinkling* her pretty smile up at me on a sunny day.

Remember: Love & Enjoy your neighborhood *Fairies* every time you can....
