Something that comes so "easily" to many of us . . . I don't really like talking in FRONT of people & I never have. . . giving speeches in class this past spring nearly killed me!! I thought I would DIE everytime I had to do it. . .Although, I knew that was a common feeling among many people that HAD to speak in front of a group. Until recently, I never really thought that my FIVE year old could

Kymberlee, you are our oldest child. You were born in Red Bluff, California on Saturday, April 6th, 1996. You were born the day after Easter that year. You were 8 lbs & 21 & 1/4" long i believe. You were actually born 1 week late, and born via "emergency" c-section . . I didn't find out it was really an em. c-section, until a yr later, when we were back there having your sister. I developed

Here you are 22wks grown. And here you are. Into the world - with daddy. Jan 2002. You were supposed to be born Jan 18th. You were not patient then, and not so patient now either:)

This is our Miss Rayna on Christmas Eve, 2005 - which was your 4th birthday. This is at grandma & grandpa's house. They have that big singing, dancing santa & you loved it, LOL. You held his hands & sang & danced with him. Your favorite color is green.You are a funny, happy child. . . mostly good-mannered & well-behaved, but you definitely have a wyld, uncontrolled side. You are usually friendly

I have been looking at older photos of the kids & have decided I am going to start posting some to my blog & talking a bit about the kids personalities, etc. For now, this is "somewhat" permanent, so it's kind of a good "scrapbook" kinda thing. I am working on the "real" paper kind of scrapbook for them too, but it's taking a bit to do those;) lolMy kids are so crazy & definitely keep me busy &

Dariyn brought home a letter from her guidance counselor today, stating that she is eligible to participate in the 2008 Talent Search, sponsored by the Center for Talented Youth (CTY) of the John Hopkins University. It helps gifted/advanced etc students. I still don't really know much about it, but we will probably let her take the test. They have different programs for the kids that pass the

Grandchildren are great!After putting her grandchildren to bed, a grandmother changed into old slacks and a droopy blouse and proceeded to wash her hair. As she heard the children getting more and more rambunctious, her patience grew thin.At last she threw a towel around her head and stormed into their room, putting them back to bed with stern warnings. As sheleft the room, she heard the

Same today. I took Rayna to "school" & dropped her off. She was reluctant, like always. I am glad that she doesn't cry anymore - like she did when I took her to daycare! For about 4 -6 mos (a semester - a semester & 1/2), Rayna cried every time I dropped her off at daycare . She did eventually stop, but like I mentioned earlier, she refused to verbally speak to anyone! :( I feel really bad

This one is going to be about the kids.I have blogs for this & that. I think the other I will focus on the rehab aspects, or animals in general.The other is for my photo of the day. I will post 1 pic a day there. Then, I am also going to have a "houses of NY". . . They won't necessarily be "exotic" or big, or beautiful, or anything.
