Badseed...thank you so much for posting the photo of your whole family....really a lovely family...the 2 girls on the right have the same smile! Precious!
A question...how do you ever find time for gardening??
My best flower-as requested :)
I was wondering that too.
I garden for sanity! LOL My father came to my home for the first time in years and was overwhelmed with the number of plants I had. I told him every plant represented a time the kids needed spanked and didn't get it! LOL I was joking, but it was a joke a parent could comprehend.
Gardening is wonderful for our sanity and also for our peace of mind....it is what helped me to find out what I really wanted in life, when I had just gotten my Masters in Couselling and was going through the internship.....work, work, work...stress, stress, stress....gardening helped me to see that I could just relax and enjoy! I didn't have to spend my life working and being stressed. So, I just stopped all of that & began relaxing and enjoying myself.
So however it helps us....it also gives us something delightful to look at and keeps us in touch with the earth & God's beauty. What more can we ask for?!
Oh Chele, I just want to squeeze that little sweetie. What a perfect shot!!
Thats a great family picture!! Geez! You husband must have REALLY wished for girls in high school! I wonder if this is what he had in mind??? :o)
They are more beautiful in person..The pictures don't do them justice. But I will have to say Ms. Maddie does have a healthy set of lungs. lol
Badseed, Maddie is adorable, it's amazing how much she looks like my 4.5 month old granddaughter. And smiling like that at 2 months! All the girls are beautiful. We are enjoying our sweetheart who will be staying with us for the rest of the year, along with her Mommy, while Daddy is at sea (navy). Daddy said he didn't know if he could take 20 years of leaving his family for such long tours. DH must have nerves of steel but so must Mommy.
Another beauty.
Wow, I came very close on their ages, I would have said, 11, 9, 6, 4, 2, and a couple of months, maybe three. What ever, I enjoyed guessing, you have an adorable crew, congrats!!!!
Such blessings you have all are so pretty.
ENJOY those snuggles :-)
That is a blossom to be proud of..... such a beatiful baby.... Give her a big ol hillbilly hug from me....

I bet you have 5 little mommies there Chele. What a gang. All I can say is your poor, poor husband. He has no chance against them all!
Gingerlily, thank goodness for men like your SIL. I will say a prayer for his safe return. That is so tough leaving such a sweet buddle for so long not to mention the rest of his life he is missing while serving his country.
Chele they are all adorable. Glad you posted the pics. I'm eagerly awaiting my second and last grandchild next month.
