Aw... Mondays and More

We saw Franklin this weekend and his best girl Lily too.
Lily is older and she loves sleeping a lot. She is a precious girl but she has lost her sight. Franklin is her guardian angel here on earth.
We saw these two cuties too. Jake and Hannah. It is always a joy to be with them. We love them so much.
We met this tiny princess too. It was so wonderful holding her in my arms and whispering in her ear. She knows God loved her. She smiled when she heard it. Visit Sandee and all those who participate in Aw...Mondays. I may be late but I am happy being here. You might not know, the kids live in Western New York and they live in the real country. It is so peaceful. Not lots of city distractions. Even as a child, my sweets said he loved the quiet on the farm when he was a boy. I fell in love with it the first time he took me there when we married. His grandma and grandpa went to bed at 8 o'clock. We were newlyweds. We snuck out the bedroom window and laid under the stars counting hundreds of them and listening to the night sounds all around us. Considering the state of the world today, I would highly recommend it to anyone raising kids. My friend Amanda W. with her five littles and her cute hubby home schools their brood and they live in a beautiful open space. also in Western NY.  I would do it if I were a young mom.
Reflecting on all those who gave their all for us and all those who gave their all for their countrymen today. Such a somber occasion. My parents made sure we never forgot and I haven't.
If you know me well, you know I love laughter. There is not one day my sweets does not roll out of bed with some silliness. I don't know what I would do if he didn't make me laugh out loud. Considering all the dark thoughts many have over these strange times, I had to share my friend Anna's thoughts on this. These past five days have been filled with many good things. I am going to try to rest and be refreshed so I can share more stories.

  1. That picture of you and Shea makes my heart smile so big!
    So, were Hannah and Jake able to travel from NY? I've another blog friend living in the Western part of NY (Hornell) -- they are so unhappy with all the crazy rules and are looking to move out of state as soon as they can.
    Love that meme about thighs. Truth hurts, but makes me laugh at the same time.

  2. Awww on the pups. Our Little Bit couldn't hear when she was old. We babied her right to the end. As it should be.

    I don't care for the big cities either. Quiet countryside works for me too.

    Love the thighs funny. I've not gained any weight but it's been a battle.

    Thank you for joining the Awww Mondays Blog Hop.

    Have a fabulous day, Anne. Big hug. ♥♥♥
