Melania Maycie & Mishayla Marian

November Preview...

Melania is not overly impressed that Mishayla has chosen to get her "Leapster observation hours" in by watching her play. Mishayla will have her very own Leapster later this month, and I'm sure the girls will miss this close bonding time. Betty D. reading to the girls on a recent visit.

Tender Heart Bear
I wish I had captured the size of the bag. Melania was a very optimistic trick or treater!

I was leaving the house after lunch to return to work when I encountered this black bear about 30 feet away... I did a double take, and went for my camera. Then, I decided rather than take pictures, I really should rescue the neighbor's dog. It was young black bear. I never heard if he was captured and relocated or not. No more bear sightings in my front yard!
Picking apples at Gpa and Gma's house.
Melania paying with her kitties. They are her "babies."
Melania had a playdate with Greta. Poor Mishayla was the 3rd wheel.
"Best" Friends!
Mishayla chose this dress, made by a friend of ours from WA to wear one day!
Thank you for your thoughtfulness if you follow my blog.

The Gift of Life

The Gift of Life
"I didn't give you the gift of life,
But in my heart I know.
The love I feel is deep and real,
As if it had been so.
For us to have each other
Is like a dream come true!
No, I didn't give you The gift of life,
Life gave me the gift of you."
