Poem written by Mom

This is a poem my Mom wrote for my Dad this past Valentine's Day. She said that she didn't care if I included it on my blog. My parents are still in love after 16 years. I am so glad my parents don't mind showing they love each other in front of us.


Valentine's Day Past



On Valentine’s Day in the past,
I would have met you after work
For a quiet dinner for two.
Today, it is dinner for 5
And it is everything but quiet!

On Valentine’s Day in the past,
You would have given me the smell of roses.
Today, I have the sweet smell of girls,
The sweat of a boy,
And oh, the smell of diapers!

On Valentine’s Day in the past,
We would have come home,
And I would have slipped into some sexy lingerie.
Today, you come home
And I am in my PJ’s with a baby on my hip.
(or attached to my breast)

On Valentine’s Day in the past,
We would have taken a nice bubble bath,
And given each other a back rub.
Today, we discuss who is going to give the children a bath
And oh, I NEED a back rub!!

On Valentine’s Day in the past,
We would have ended the day making love,
And then fell asleep in each others arms.
Today, we make love everyday in the lives of our children,
And if you ask me, our love is greater and better today,
Than in the past because we have given it away so that it will last.

Thanks for all the great memories but most of all thanks for loving me.

I love you more today than all of our yesterdays. You are the love of my life.

On March 6th -- Canada Geese

After dinner, we headed to the park with bread in hand. We got to feed several Canada Geese. I have never seen so many Canada Geese in one place. When you look at these magnificent birds you can not tell the male from the female. But most of the time, you will see these birds in pairs. Here, I am getting a Canada Goose to eat out of my hand. Did you know they have TEETH? Not really, but their bill is very sharp and the inside is jagged. They also stick out their tongue and pant like a dog. This one was very demanding. He/she must have been really hungry or just a MALE!!
Andrew, was a little afraid at first to feed the geese. However, after a little coaxing and watching me, he gave it a try. This goose grabbed the bread out of his hand before he could think about dropping it. Notice the surprised look on Andrew's face. He still has a little piece of bread in his hand.

We both had a lot of fun this evening. I will never forget my time with the Canada Geese. I hope they stay around and have their goslings. That would be an amazing sight to see!!!

Our Home

This is a picture of the front of our house. I
thought you might want to see where we are
living.
This is the biggest house we have ever lived in.
I like the fact that I have my own room and we
have a hang out/playroom downstairs. It is a lot
of fun.
Also, Andrew and Hannah have their own rooms.
However, right now, Hannah is still bunking
in my parents room. We also have a Guest
Room if anyone would like to come visit. As you can see, this is the back of the house. To the left, right in front of the deck, is a huge Magnolia tree. Andrew and I like playing under and on the tree. My Dad doesn't like the tree at all. That probably has a lot to do with all the leaves he has to rake up. Another thing we like about the backyard is the treehouse. Also, this past Winter it was fun to sled down the hill. One thing we don't like is that there is no where for us to put up a pool. Or so, my Dad says. My Mom is still holding out hope and so am I!!!

A Muddy Mouth

In this pictures, Andrew has mud in his mouth. How did this happen you might ask? Well, Andrew and I had made a mud pie and I ask him to try it. He refused. So, my Mom ask him to try it. Instead of Andrew leaning back, he leaned forward and the stick that the mud was on went straight in his mouth. It was quite funny to my Mom and I. ( Mom didn't mean for it to go in his mouth)

Still In Love

Let me introduce my family. My parents are Jeff and Missy. My Dad likes to go fishing, play with his children, and he is a big Nascar fan. The way to my Dads heart is through his stomach. My Dad likes to try different foods and EAT!! My Mom likes to cook and bake, read and teach us about Christ. My parents are very loving and fun to be around.

My Girl

This is me, Sierra. My favorite birthday present was my dog, Cotton. She is a Toy Poodle. I got her from my Papa and Nana for my 5th birthday. Cotton just turned 7 years old.
I like bright colors especially pink and yellow. I have started collecting poodle things. I am learning to decorated and sew my own clothes.

Outdoors Boy

My brother, Andrew, likes to play outside, to play remote control cars and do anything with my Dad. He is 6 years old. At the moment, his favorite color is PINK!! I think he likes pink because he likes to copy me. His favorite food is Macaroni and cheese. Andrew will, hopefully, be adopted late this Summer.

Cuteness at its best

This is my sister, Hannah-Faith. We call her Hannah or "boo boo" for short. She is called "boo boo" because she was our surprise baby. My parents were only on the adoption list for 3 months when we got the call to adopt her. Hannah likes to nurse, chew on things and scream. Hannah is 11 months and her favorite thing is our MOM!! She is crawling and pulling up on things. When she is awake, she likes to play and be held.

A Picture Of Our Family!!!!

This is a recent picture of our family at the park. Who knows , except the LORD, when the next family member will be added.

Welcome to my blog

Hi, I am glad you came to view my blog. In the coming months, I hope to trill you with my family moments. I would like to let our friends and family become more involved with the daily adventures of our family because we live so far away from them. I hope to include pictures with my blog. This way you can see how we are growing.
