Happy Birthday, Mom! Feb. 7, 2007
Today is my mom's 77th birthday! I'm celebrating with amethyst ink and the fanciest font available. I hope she has a great day, and that this year is full of blessings. She deserves the best. I'm very proud of her, and think it's especially cool that she is studying biblical counselling. She has a lot of wisdom and common sense to share, and I believe God can really use her counsel in my life and the lives of the rest of our family.
You go, Mom! I love you!
Aaron is celebrating his third day off school this week. Our weather temps are in the single digits, windchill bring them about 20 below zero. The 1 - 2 inches of snow predicted on Tuesday turned into over 6 inches.
It's good hibernating weather, perfect for a long winter nap. . . zzz

Da!! Can you believe I just noticed the comment thing on the bottom? I guess I'm a little slow these days.
Ferree, this blog is really neat.
I really enjoy your writings.
Tomorrow is your birthday and I want to wish you a birthday as special as you are. I pray that this year is filled with the sweetest blessings.
As for your mom, she is my second mom, or my first, as I tell her. She has taught me more than my mom by her faith and the way she lives her life. I still say you got the best one! ha ha (the Mareceks) I hope she lives forever! (on earth that is)

Outdoor Visitors

Tom was burning some brush at the back of our lot early this evening. I walked back there to talk to him, and lo and behold---a big wild turkey came walking out of the woods on the lot across from us! I thought maybe he smelled the smoke and decided to check it out. And he didn't seem in too much of a hurry, but he picked up the pace when he saw us. A minute later, we saw some more movement where the turkey was, and a coyote peered over at us. He turned around after eyeballing us. I think maybe he was following that meaty looking turkey. I never know what I'll see out here!   And this little thing was inside the screened-in porch today. The green anole made it out alive yesterday, so I guess word is out---Fud isn't a threat! Those are NOT my fingers in the picture.

Jennifer Lawrence interview on David Letterman HD - November 20, 2013 I've never been a fan of a real-life movie star (Bambi isn't real). But after watching this interview last night I just might! This girl's hilarious!

New Pets

My garden failed in everything except a pot of parsley. Last week I noticed tiny green beads stuck to the parsley leaves, and a few days later some small black caterpillars, and now.... PETS! Yep. Pet caterpillars. Not Monarchs, though. They kind of look like the Monarch butterfly caterpillar, but these are Black Swallowtail butterfly caterpillars. Love the parsley. They totally destroyed my plant so I bought them some from the grocery store. I put the stems in a cup of water and it's holding up well enough---at the rate they're going they might eat it all before it wilts anyway! I wish I'd taken their pictures on Wednesday when they were less than 1" long. Now they're a good 2" long. Let me introduce you:   This one is named Parsley. Start up the music for Scarborough Fair. Sage. Rose, Mary, and And (yes, one of them is named And. Scroll down and see if you guessed why I named it And). Thymes Seven. Yes, this last one is named S...
