Well, I’m getting older soon. My birthday is coming up and I’m so excited to be having a Hawaiian themed birthday party. It’s still about three weeks away, so we needed to start planning. Grandma is getting steak, fish and coconut shrimp. She’ll also buy some veggies to put on the grill. I’m providing the…
That’s right! Today’s posts are all about home! Do you know how many times I think about you both everyday? Whoa! A lot! You are my home, sweet sisters. So much of what I do, I do with you ( and your brothers in mind. I always buy cars that can hold more than two:…
Grandma and I worked on your scrapbooks again today. All the baby pictures are in. Next are the toddler pictures. Purity, you have a page entitled “All the Faces of Purity” while Bea has a page entitled “Our Christmas Angel.” What great memories! We are lucky this situation did not happen when you were younger….

Your cosmic DJ has found another great song for you to enjoy this evening. I’m not sure what time of day, you get to see my posts. Or how often. But I continue to post an average of two posts a day. Sometimes it’s three (like yesterday). I get inspired. Sometimes I post ahead so…
