    Stuff to Share
    I have a few things to catch up on so I'm going to put them all right here.

    First, I'd like you all to know I was one of the happy winners of Boo Mama's drawing a while back...for a Mandisa single. Due to a mailing glitch it took a long time for it to arrive. When it got here I put it on the player and had the whole family listen with me. :-) Oh My! All I can say is "wonderful!". The song 'Only the World' is so uplifting. Hope springs! Go and get yourself her new CD right away!



    *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*


    Second, I was recently privileged to get a copy of a darling CD called Name Your Tune--
    "a children's music compilation that is made-to-order and personalized
    for each child. They’ll hear their name more than 80 times throughout 14
    much-loved songs - a great way to enjoy music, have fun, and learn together!
    We’ve been recognized in last month’s Parents Magazine, and have been
    awarded the iParenting Award, too!"


    They included all three of my younger children's names on one CD.
    If only I could describe the look of delight that came across Little Guy's face when he heard his name being sung on the CD! Pure joy!
    The songs on this little CD are delightful and all three of the little children danced and sang and smiled while listening for the fist time. I have no doubt that this will be a favorite at our house for a long time to come.
    The CD even has a customizable label! Ours says: To (insert child's name) with love from Mommy and Daddy...
    If you need a fabulous gift idea or just want to surprise your children this is highly recommended.



    *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*


    Third, I was very blessed and happy to find out I have been given the Nice Matters blog award by Dana at Principled Discovery and by MaryKathryn at Just Going With the Flow.
    This award originated with Bella Enchanted as a way to award
    "those that are just nice people , good blog friends and those that inspire good feelings and inspiration! Those that care about others that are there to lend support or those that are just a positive influence in our blogging world!"
    I am honored that someone thought I was worthy of this award...and I'll do my best to live up to it! Thank you Dana and Mary!

    I need to pass this award on to some other bloggers but am unsure who....I'll be back with an update when I've thought it over.

    My Other Blog



    ~OUR LITTLE LOVE STORY~
    Once upon a time, when things were not so complex...there was a handsome farm boy college boy from the great woods of the Northwest who came to the south on his white stallion White Honda Civic and won Buttercup's Sunydazy's heart.

    He laid his heart at the foot of her dress and said "Our love can be like a storybook story. Will you be my bride?" She accepted and they began talking and dreaming of their perfect future together.

    Since that time they have together endured fire swamps, ROUS's, the pit of despair and yes, they have even teetered on the edge of the cliff's of insanity (tee hee!)

    Though their future was not quite what they expected they still believe in True Love. This blog is all about the rest of their lives where they are living 'Happily Ever After' in the land of La Kooka Rancha.

    They love to say 'you keep using that word...I do not think it means what you think it means.' and' Hallo, my name is Inigo Montoya'...but their favorite phrase is...

    'As you wish'....




    My Dear Family

    My Builder Man: A visionary with a heart of gold, who holds strong convictions and has an eye for beauty and order. He is always planning something new to build. A man who rises early, works very hard and likes strong coffee and plaid shirts.


    Osprey: Our oldest son. 17 years old. A young man with an incredible talent and ear for music. He has strong convictions, and is not easily swayed (esp. by me when it comes to math!). He's good at babysitting and rocking little ones to sleep. He loves to read and his favorite sport is fencing...a game of strategy at high speeds. He's not into rising early right now :-) but dearly loves a good all-you-can-eat buffet!


    RiverGirl: Our oldest daughter. 13 years old. She is budding into a beautiful young lady. She enjoys sewing, card making, scrapbooking and music. She is learning to cook and cares for her baby twin sisters like a pro. Being a mother hen type - she is more than willing to help me wake up any non-early risers in the house!


    Little Guy: Our 5 year old son. Extremely bright, and extremely energetic. He loves to play with his little sisters and will keep them happy for long stretches of up to 30 minutes at a time...until he gets too carried away and yells and whoops like a wild man! He loves to eat oranges and string cheese...we should've invested in a string cheese company long ago!


    Ladybug: This dear little 2 year old girl has a calmness in her personality that is very endearing! She was the larger of the twins and was consequently the first born. She started walking at 11 months old and toddles around smiling and trying to put on clothes--she wears them on her head!


    Doodlebug: Also 2 years old, and a precious little bundle of all energy. This little girl arrived second because she was a bit smaller and also because she never stopped flipping around in the womb. (She was born breach). She still hasn't slowed down...she wants to get places fast! We spend a lot of time peeling her little person off of the dining room chairs because she likes to climb up and inspect the table top!
