~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 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!

Oh, you what a lovely experience for you children. I wish I lived where my kids could have such expe....wait, I probably would have responded much differently. It probably would have went like this:
Mom wook, wook, CHICKENS
I would have looked,paniced and carried them inside, with a warning to stay away from animals. LOL ..I know, how sad?
I'm a city girl, too. I so wish I had such a wonderful nature story. Maybe one day. Until then thanks for the wonderful daydream. You are blessed.
