Mother's Day

Almost every year, we take our mom to put flowers on her mom's grave. She gets very emotional but, I can't feel anything. My Grandmother died in 1973. I was days from my 4th birthday. I didn't get to know her.

But, I feel that her tears will be few compared to what I will shed if my mom should leave me. The older I get, the more it freaks me thinking of the possibility of her going. God give me strength.

But, despite me being morbid and negative, it was a beautiful day. The temperature was just right. We went to a nearby park after leaving the cemetary. Hamburgers and hot dogs. Friendly game of volley ball. (I didn't play) No one getting angry...it was very nice. I hope we have more days like this.

Gonna score ore ore tonight!

Not what you think! Grease 2 reference! :D We went bowling the night of my momma's b-day party. I got ONE strike! Hubby skunked! Joanna had fun.

He mentioned it to work friend and now he wants to go. We might go this Saturday.

Joanna now knows her name in sign language. She picked it up quick! I found a beginners book at a garage sale. I already knew the alphabet so, I showed her how to sign her name. She showed everyone...they were most impressed. :) I've always been fascinated with sign language and now it will be more fun to learn with my baby.

Happy Birthday Momma!

Its my momma's 63rd B-day!

Saturday, my sis gave her a party. She hired my mom's favorite music, mariachis!

Happy Birthday Momma, We love you!!

Elmer's Squeeze 'n Brush

I won a set of these brushes from a blog. Joanna was so happy. They're pretty cool. Here is what she painted asap.

Happy Birthday Joanna

Wow, I hate posting late but, weare just getting back to normal.

Saturday was my baby's 5th birthday. Since her daddy turned 40 on Friday, we decided to do a double party. We had a nice turnout. Thank you Beli, for taking over the grill. It freed up Gabino to be with his family.

Happy Birthday Gabino

The big 4-0!! I hope your birthday party Saturday rocks! Love you!

RIP Midget

I called my Tia Julia tonight. She was sniffling. She said Big Mike called her to tell her that Midget died. My sister ran over him by accident. :(

Midget was about 10yrs old or so. He was an indoor cat but when my brother went to live with my sis, he escaped. He came alive again once he got a taste of the outdoors. He used to be always sleepy, bad back, ear mites.......then he was reborn. I think he was happier these last 6 months.

I know my sister feels so bad about what happened, who wouldn't? But its not her fault. He was on the outside porch and for some reason ran under her truck after she started it up.

He will be missed, big time.
