They guessed my age at 26!!


Someone found out it was my Birthday today and they guessed my age at 26!!No they did not have dementia, but they were 100 years old with very poor eye sight. I had a great laugh out of that.
The real # is 49 and I am not a bit embarrassed by it.

Jeff and I had a great day of shopping, I shopped, he read a book. When I went into Eddie Bauer, the lady was trying to get me to buy a vest, she says,"these are so in style, you just have to have one," I looked out over my glasses,(Now that I can no longer see) and said, I truly do not care what is in style, look at me, I'm 49.

My boys always ask me,Why are you on a diet? You are old and you cares what you look like. My usual response is," I do not want you to have to buy a extra large casket. So you have it.

I am old and it is O.K. with me.

October 11, 1990 Waterloo,Iowa .My # 31



I am a little slow to post, but we are still celebrating, so I guess it is still acceptable.
At 3 pm, on October 11, I gave birth to one of the most beautiful brown eyed baby boys I had ever seen. His name was Taylor Andrew Whitt.
Taylor turned 18 and that makes me a little sad and yet happy for him. He is ready to be independent come next fall.
Taylor and I have always had a unique relationship, a deep bond between a mom and her son. One often unspoken, but very much felt.
Taylor is a very disciplined man, he is physically very strong and takes pride in his work, whether it is football or wrestling. Schools comes in third, but he does fairly well there too.
Taylor has been a great kid and I could not be prouder of him.


Happy Birthday to my second son. I love you.
Mom

My Little Girl Is Four





T









My Baby turned four and she had quite a princess party. We had so
much fun with her. The only person missing was her best friend Oakley. But she called and sang "Happy Birthday" to Caeleigh. Thanks Oakley.
As you can see, Caeleigh can do some serious pouting. She did not appreciate her mothers great Ebay purchase. She had enough and there was no cooperation that day.

I just love this girl with all her emotions. God has blessed our family with this precious princess. She has three big brothers that love her and dote on her every single day.

I say to God, Thank you, Thank you for the gift of adoption. The most important adoption is allowing us to be adopted into the kingdom of God, The second, allowing us to adopt Miss Caeleigh Elizabeth-Xinke Whitt , she is a treasure to our family and we love her with all our hearts. Happy Birthday My sweet Baby Girl.
Mom
I did not take these pictures on her B-day, in case your wondering. She really did have fun. I just loved the dress and I love showing the whole picture of life.

Another Teenage



Thirteen years ago a very special son was born, Alec Christopher Whitt. It has always amazed me that Jeff and I could always turn out such different children, not one alike. Well Alec is no different. Alec is without a doubt my easiest child. Kind, compliant, and very competitive. He knows as much about sports as Sports Center, maybe it is because he memorizes it? He is the only kid I know, that can enjoy any ballgame on TV, no matter who is playing. He is a great kid and we love him to death. Happy Birthday Alec!!!
