A memorable moment…having flowers delivered this week from my husband and it’s not even a birthday or anniversary. I am grateful..that I planted Lantana this spring outside my back door. I laugh..when I think about how picky Miss Sam and Mr. John are about their “blankies”. They have to have them “just so” in order [...]
A memorable moment…eating my own home grown tomatoes for the very first time. They were more than delicious they were simply indescribable. Patiently waiting for the next batch. I am grateful..for the lazy days of summer. I laugh..when I think about how opposite Mr. John and I are yet how easily we get along. [...]

A memorable moment…was when Snickers’ chased her first squirrel. This is progress for her. Usually the squirrels will chase her and she will run into the house and hide under the bed. She’s finally coming into her own. I am grateful…that Miss Sam is on the mend. I laugh…when I think on how Miss Sam [...]

A memorable moment…because one of my little preschool clients (she will turn five soon) is learning to read ‘Dick and Jane’, Miss Sam asked me “When did I start reading?”.
