It's a Birthday Luv Fest!

Happy Birthday, Miss Kitty!
(and yes, awards are here too...I promise!)

Today is my precious princess Catherine's 6th birthday! Six years ago today I was pleading with my doctor to "just get her out of me NOW!" (I really did say that...) This little bundle of joy loved my womb. Loved it so much that she hung out in there for an extra week! AN EXTRA WEEK!!! (In pregnant mom years that feels like 10 years.) Finally, she arrived with jet black hair, pale white skin and ruby red lips...just like a little Snow White! After a few days the black "mommy gave you too much hormone" hair fell out and soft fuzzy blonde sprouted through. Then all hair growth stopped until about age 3. That and no talking...I mean not a word except for an occasional grunt until 3. Then wham! Complete articulate sentences came pouring out of this kid!

Today I celebrate my sweet surprise! Yep, she was a surprise!!! I was 37 and thought I couldn't have anymore babies. But God always has a bigger plan! So this is for my peach pie! I love you, beautiful girl!!!!! (yeah, you are definitely worth the 345 extra tests I had to have because I was an "old" mom!)

You are so funny! hahaa I came to check out my award! Thank you my friend!! I've gotten that before but never posted it, I'm such a party pooper. I appreciate you thinking of me and allowing me to have a spot in the sacred 10!
I'm not sure why I wasn't "following" your blog....I thought I was?! Did you remove me or something? hahaa Well, I signed up because I want to be one of "the coolest in the land of blog"!!
I was just reading your "about me" and it could have been describing me.....up until the entertaining and jazz hands....whatever that is? I'm not an entertainer but I love the rest and of course I don't miss homeschooling anymore. :)
Have and great night and thanks again for the award!! (hug)

Love the hot pink Barbie pad too! Birthday Blessings!

Tuesday's Tribute...Heartbeat..It's a Lovebeat

Yet Another Jay and Deb Production. I am paying my Tuesday's Tribute to Chilly. Today we celebrate our first Heartaversary. What is a Heartaversary, you ask? Well, settle in with a cuppa and let me weave a tale of wonder... One year ago today I was pacing the waiting room floor of University Medical Center in Tucson waiting for my husband’s surgeon to inform me if Chilly had survived his triple bypass. I’ll spare you the sordid details of how all this came about. I’ll just say that it was very fast and unexpected. The prospect of losing my spouse in my early 40’s wasn’t in my plan obviously. My plan was more of a “hanging with the kiddos, going to the Renaissance Faire, beating my son at Guitar Hero, driving my husband crazy for decades” kind of plan. But God always has a bigger plan for us. In this case, he was trying to keep Chilly on the planet for a while longer. As I have written before, Chilly has had two very challenging years. He has been a diabetic for a couple of decade
