So then I was trampled under a rainbow...

Spring is just around the corner! I'm actually really happy about this, mostly because that means it'll be warmer. I'm so ready for warm weather. I can't wait to get our garden planted (ready for this so I can get all these plants out of my kitchen). Vegetable gardens rock. The thought of being able to go outside and pick my own veggies is just so cool. :)

I hope I can keep up with everything going on this spring! The kids will be here in June. So the task is making Mason's room that can counter as a bedroom for 3.... without making anyone feel left out. Hmmm. Here's to working on getting the carport enclosed! :) I am so excited about what this year is bringing. I think it's good stuff. Really good stuff. Finally.

Mason has 2 teeth now. Jaclyn is really coming along in speech. Abby is very stubborn and very much like her Momma.../sigh. LOL Anna just turned 14 and look 18 *shotgun*, Adri is just precious and is doing great in school and Bubba - well, he is *all* boy!

I'm blessed and grateful. So very grateful. :)

Raining Daisies on a Summer Day.....

Daisies = simplicity...easy...quiet....

Those are words that describe daisies to me. It also really represents my life at this point. Loving Joe, is surprisingly such an easy love. He's truly a rare soul. He doesn't worry about impressing people - so the circle to that is that because he's not worried about that he doesn't oppress anyone (like me or the kids) and in turn he's just real and people like him. I honestly don't know anyone who doesn't like him. I do think that's rare.

I've learned so much about life from him in the last 3 years. He says I make him want to be a better person and I think that about him. Because he is who he is - a man who shows love through his actions not his words.

Anyone can show love through words. But behind closed doors, when no one is looking what kind of love are they showing?

I love the fact that Joe has never raised his voice to me. I love how he comes home from work and seeks me out before anyone else and wraps those big strong arms around me and tells me how much he loves me. How he remembers everything I say....and months later he'll bring something home and say "didn't you want one of these...". Or how we like the exact same things. We love the same food, the same colors, the same decor...gardening stuff...

It just makes life easy. Simple. Nothing is complicated or tense. And *that* is precious. :)

New pics!
