Friday, the 13th - No bad luck for us!

Little tiny baby Sophie Grace was born this morning, and we are so thankful that everything has gone well for her and her mother. Proud parents are Aaron and Cyndie. Can't wait to hold her and do some nibbling. 34 years ago today, I too was giving birth to a beautiful baby girl with dark hair and long fingers, like her dad's. No mother could be any more proud of a daughter than I am of Anneke. She has truly been a joy to watch grow up and become a mother of her own daughters. She is very precious to me, as are all our children, and I'm thankful for her good husband and the way she has lived her life. Happy Birthday, Anneke!!!

Greetings

Just want to say Happy Valentine's Day to my family (and any friends) who read this. I have so many people who I am thankful for and love dearly. Will you all be my valentines?

My Big Red Bowl

Here are the reasons that I love the big red Tupperware bowl that Anneke and Tom gave me for Christmas Felding:

1. It is a beautiful color.
2. It holds as much as my big stainless steel "popcorn" bowl.
3. It fits inside the sink.
4. It has a nice, tight-fitting lid.
5. It is so styling when I take a treat to school.
