Tucker


This is Tucker my loving cat who would do anything for me. Even try to catch a mouse for me. I wanted to tell you about this story my friend told me about Tucker. Tucker is a little chubby. However he hasn't gained much weight since he has been with me.
Tucker saw a mouse in the field in the field and took pursuit of that mouse. My friend sat back and watched Tucker trying to catch this mouse. The mouse was about 3 feet in front of Tucker and my friend sat their and watched Tucker saying silently to himself "Go Tucker get that Mouse." However Tucker was getting really ticked off. He was not getting any closer. He kept chasing, and that mouse kept getting farther away finally Tucker gave up after 5 minutes of pursuit. As you can probably guess Tucker was mad. He walked away with a disgusted "Garfield" look on his face. My friend said, "It was the funniest expression he had seen from a cat, and especially from Tucker.
Getting in the head of a cat is a funny thing to do. Just seeing thier expressions, the way they walk, and their overall appearance says it all. CATS ARE GREAT!

mOm AnD bEiNg A mOm!

Moms! Wow! What a powerful word. I have step-son living with Neill and I. Having Dustin live with us has brought around experiences I would have never known about.
School clothes, book orders, girl friends (they think)
school supplies, chores at home, allowance
etc.
I honestly had know idea how expensive kids were ESPECIALLY TO FEED!!!!!
I want everyone out there to know how long I have
waited to be a mother. The time is finally here
and I hope I don't screw it up. It is such a
BIG responsibilty. I HAVE ONE OF
HEAVENLY FATHER'S CHILDREN I AM
RESPONSIBLE FOR. THAT SCARES ME.
Does anyone else out there get scared that they are responsible for Heavenly Fathers children. It is such a big responibility. I want to do my very best to get these children back to HIM.

I love these children with all my heart and I want to do my very best to help them get back to Heavenly Father. I hope I can be a great mother to Dustin and a good example. Everyone have a great day. Love you all.

KIds, SICkNEss, and EVeryTHIng ELse!!!


This is my step son Dustin. He is living with us now which is going quite well. However, this week was FLU WEEK in our house!!
I got the first. It consisted of everything. Puking, diariah, body aches, headaches and everything else you can imagine. It was awful.
I am learning quite a bit raising an 11 year old boy. Know that I am in charge of one of Heavenly Fathers children makes me so nervous, but very honored. I think now. We need to have Home Evening, Family Prayer, Scripture Study, we need to make sure we have a homework time, a reading time a decent bedtime. AHHHHHHHHHH! My head is going to explode. I CAN DO THIS. I'M RESPONSIBLE. JUST NEED TO KEEP TELLING MYSELF THIS. I CAN DO THIS! I CAN DO THIS!!! HAVE A GREAT WEEK EVERYBODY !!

WhAt COuLd Be BeTtEr ThAn KiDs!!!!


Kids, Kids, Kids! I love kids! I ended up having kids without having kids. I am around kids all day long. I am going to be coming home to a child now which to me is very exciting. What a blessing to have children.
My cats have been my children most of my life, but to actually have children. What a change. What a special gift my Heavenly Father gave to me. Or Is It?!!?!?!?!?!?!!
Well this is the end of my wonderful thoughts today. Have a great and wonderful day for the rest of the week.

Sick and Tired!!

Well, Well, Well, how are all of you doing this wonderful day. It is Friday! That is saying something wonderful! This is my cat Tucker. I put him on my page today because I wanted to remind me of something cute, kind of funny, and something totally relaxing. You see, I have pneumonia. I'm stuck at home (very gratefully!!) but feel very sick. This is why I picked this picture. Tucker is one of those laid back cats that doesn't care about anything.

Wouldn't that be a wonderful gift to not worry and take things one day at a time. I think that would be a precious gift. I seem to worry quite a lot. To know what was important to worry about and what not to worry about would be a great gift.

Maybe that is the test. To know that worrying isn't part of our Heavenly Fathers plan, but having Faith is a part of our Heavenly Father's plan. Have a great day, and stay well.

A Wonderful Family


I don't know how many of you have met my family, but this is my family. Neill and I are in the back. Becky is on the left and Sydney is on the right. Jacob is on the left and Dustin is on the right front.
My family is great. I didn't think I would ever have this opportunity, but it came around in a different sort of way. I love my Heavenly Father so much. He has blessed me greatly.
