My Husband "Subvet" says that when our first son "Sonshine" was born the sun rose on our world, when our second son "Gator" was born the sun laughed and when our daughter "Sugars" was born all the flowers bloomed. That says it all.

Friday Fragments and Thesaurus Thursday


From Mrs 4444's site Half-Past Kissing Time... Friday Fragments are bits and pieces of your week that are usually brief; too short for a stand-alone post, but too good to discard. Collect humorous observations, "Heard" items, and other small gems and put them together in a Friday Fragments post.






Well, due to my rather hectic schedule and your lack of participation the last month or so I'm going to put Thesaurus Thursday on hiatus for awhile. I'll bring it back once things settle down....and absence makes the heart grow fonder (which I'm hoping translates into more comments!) ;-)

Last Week's Definitions were:

eidolon - 1) an unreal image; phantom; apparition 2) an ideal

eidetic - pertaining to or constituting visual impressions recalled vividly and readily reproducible with great accuracy






20 minutes of instant QUIET cooperation..............

special thanks to Miss Whitney, who gave us this game when she cleaned out her classroom last month just because Sonshine loves to play with it so much!







child magnet:






Girlie-girl!

Charming Stinker!

How did YOU do through the checkups though? LOL!

I've been offline a lot this week due to real life and being bummed out about my computer/router issues. Oh well, life goes on.

I have no idea what the problem is... :( You're the only one I've heard this from.

I LOVE your photos! Your kids are the cutest, and I can see why your cat is a kid magnet :) Love the new header, too.

P.S. I'm writing a post for Tuesday(?) that includes favorite posts from moms who have kids with autism. Do you have a favorite post on the topic or another blogger's post to recommend? If so, email me... mrs4444 a t new.rr.com

I'm way to ADD for Thesaurus Thursday. It makes my poor little head spin.

More great pictures plus I really like to see men on their knees. It looks, so, well natural, doncha know!
