Can you believe it's April already!

Boy or Boy, I am so glad to have the warmer weather back. Just love seeing all the spring flowers popping up. Just look out my kitchen window yesterday and saw my pear tree in bloom. We planted this tree at the last house we lived in and when moving Tom dug it up and brought it with us. Now this was in the dead of winter. But we planted it anyway. Last year it grew it's little leaves back and we knew it was going to make it. No blooms, but we was just happy it survived. Then when I saw the blossums, I just wanted to shout "Hooray!" I can't wait to get my flowers going and fix up my little porch. That is my little private spot, where I go to for some talks with God and a great place for some reading. As excited as I get about Spring, it sometimes bothers me that time is moving so fast. Just like yesterday, we had our family Easter dinner. We have some good cooks in our family, so of course we all eat too much. Just have to try it all. But as I watched the grandchildren, niece's and nephew's playing, I realized just how much they all have grown. Stephen now 20 is such a wonderful young man, Spencer now 16, driving! And is turning into a man right in front of me, Macee our little angel, is 10, and really growing. In fact she baked and decorated a cake for our dessert. She's going to be a good little pastry chef. Then there's Jake, he' also 10, and all boy! Anything rough and dirty and he's happy. Then our little Breanna, 5 and Lexie,3 are the sweetest little girls. And then comes Landry, 2, you better like singing and dancing, because that's what she is doing all the time. They are all such fun and a true blessing to the family. Then I have Trisha,16 and Johnnie 14 that couldn't be there, but both really good kids. I would have to say, they are all going to bring us so much pleasure, and our future is sure to be busy! My life has been blessed with all these beautiful little ones. And look forward to the additions to come.
