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.

can't get no respect

geez.

X got you huh??

here you go
xylomotous - (zi lot' e mes) adj boring into or cutting wood, as certain insects.

xanthus (zan' thes) adj 1) yellow 2) yellowish

for those who said they had trouble pronouncing the x-words here's a clue. No matter what "Leap Frog" says. Most times, when it begins a word "x" is pronounced like a "z" as in xylophone.

our Silly Goose this week is Diane, with "Xylotomous: A genetic cross between a xylophone and a hippopotamus."

cheers to you all, I'm still trying to get these silly gifts finished...WAAAAYYYY behind this year...something about 3 babies to take care of.......

I took one look at the x's and thought that meant "don't go there". lol

I gave up on the handmade ornaments this year. I don't know where the time went, and I don't have 3 babies.

Think maybe we should start earlier next year? lol
