To my mom--I hope you had a wonderful birthday Momma. I wish I could have been there to celebrate it for you. Just wanted to tell you you have always tried to be the best mom you could to me and I love you so much for it. Sometimes that took hard love and hard times for you, I know I didn't make it easy. Thank you for all the talks we had laying on your bed. I remember the first on those talks. Daddy was teaching me Science and we got off subject somehow. We started talking about mine and yours relationship. He encouraged me to talk to you and I walked back to your room and flopped down on the bed. That was the first of many great conversations between us. Thank you for always being my advocate mom. Thank you for always believing in me and loving me and encouraging me no matter what. I love you! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
p.s. How old are you this year? lol

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!
To all the father's out there--happy father's day. Make the kids do the dishes today. We appreciate everything you do for us kids.
To my own Daddy:
I just wanted you to know some thing about my growing up times. As I was growing up I went through times when I made some pretty bad decisions. You never berated me about those times. You encouraged me to stand up again and dust myself off. I want you to know that because of your Godly example, I also WANTED to stand up and dust myself off. I always wanted what you had Daddy. I wanted that relationship you had with Christ. I saw you live it every day in your early morning devotions, in your work life, in the way you interacted with your friends, and in the way you loved your family. We always came first. I will ALWAYS cherish the hours and outings you spent with us. I loved the lunches we had at Morrow Mtn. I loved the times just you and I went off together. You were and still are good at giving your kids that special one on one time. Thank you for never giving up on me. Thank you for helping make me into the person I am today. I can confidently say my independence and love for Christ now is because of the way you lived. We disagreed at times, but my respect for your walk with Christ never wavered. I love you Daddy. Happy Father's Day. I wish I could be there with you to celebrate.
Love, Your curly-headed daughter.

So I had a [good] day....
Currently listening to----"Good Day" by Jewel
This morning I decided to get up early and make breakfast for my wonderful hubby. It's my day off, but I never get up early with him, so I decided to today. It was really nice just to have some chill time with him this morning. Then he went off to work and I got to work on the house.
I paid the bills, vacuumed, swept, cleaned the shower & toilet, and mopped the floors. THEN, I went to our local Hallmark store. I got a 20% off coupon from them for my birthday (no you didn't miss it, it's coming up on the 28th!) and decided to buy ALL the cards I need for the rest of the year. So, I looked through my calendar for each month and wrote down all the birthdays, holidays, and anniversaries. I only saved about 5 bucks but at least I have all (calculated) cards I need for the rest of the year! It was a VERY productive day.
After all that I went to McDonald's and got my favorite (double cheeseburger and fries) and then headed to the library (current location). I've been here for a couple of hours reading celebrity gossip and checking e-mails and such. Now I'm headed home to possibly take a nap before I start makin dinner. OH! Our neighbors (the other side of our duplex) have disappeared and the landlord moved out their stuff today. SO if anyone is looking for an apartment and would like to be neighbors we have an opening!!! lol--but seriously! K-, I'm out of here! Love ya!
