Being Grateful

I'm 

at my

wit's end 

with my kids

who continue to

be UNGRATEFUL!!

This is NOT how I've 

raised them. Or is it???

I would like nothing more

than to produce words of how

they mind their manners, and do

not talk back, pick up after them-

selves and do chores without having

to be reminded...It's just not that way.

UGH!! I am
grateful 
that they
are mine.

On a happier note....

We went to Maryland this weekend and spent time

with our neighbors... This is something I've been missing.

 It's November, yet the flowers are STILL

budding.

So chilly we could see our breath.

But you can't. ;o)

On with my day. I hope yours is great, too.
