    The Front Porch Swing

    That's not as bad as your daughter saying that when she grows up, she hopes her breasts are nice and long, just like her mom's.

    The Front Porch Swing

    An elderly woman and her little grandson, whose face was sprinkled with bright freckles, spent the day at the zoo. Lots of children were waiting in line to get their cheeks painted by a local artist who was decorating them with tiger paws. "You've got so many freckles, there's no...

    OH MY GOODNESS!! I would so love to have that building for my chickens! I would gradually divide it into breeder pens, grow out pens, and laying pens. What a treasure. ETA: Of course, you're going to need some outdoor runs........

    Cherish that time with him, meltdowns and all. They grow up too fast. I still smile thinking about light up shoes and how they would only cooperate with shoe shopping because I always had them run down the aisle to see if they could run fast in that pair. Payless always had BOGO 1/2 off and...

    I think it depends on the person receiving the gift. If you want a new fridge and DH buys it for you, great. He should know you well enough to know if it would be well received. My DH is not really good at gifts, that's okay. If I want it, I buy it. If it is near a holiday, I tell him...

    I know, I laughed so hard, tears ran down my leg.

    All kids are different and they all develop in their own way and speed. I have three boys and no two hit the milestones at the same time. My oldest walked, no, ran at seven months. My middle waited until he was nine months (still early) and the last one, Reese, was over a year old when he...

    Awwwww! Blooie, what a wonderful story. I am the old fashioned "do it in the right order, no exceptions" kind of girl, at least I WAS. I think I just found the exception.......

    I dunno', it wouldn't hurt to ask! That young lady may be a future heritage breeder, with just a little encouragement..... If she gets a coop, I'll donate some eggs!

    It sounds like you need to send the chicks over to her house! I think she would make a fine chick sitter until they can go outside!

    That is a tough place to be, Wyodreamer, but it doesn't have to be where you stay. It's not too late. The ultimate show of support would be to get in a car and go. Even if you don't say anything, your presence will say it all. If that is not possible, call a sibling or anyone there and ask...

    I have caught myself doing that with my DH, but I am trying to stop it. I know how it feels when he takes jabs at me or the kids in the name of "only joking" and I don't like it. I am just preaching to myself here, not passing judgment.

    I have no doubt she is a fine person and a loving mother, that is reason enough not to call her an "Old Bat!" I know there is nothing but playfulness behind it. I admit, I have heard others referring to moms with such loving nicknames as "Old Goat," "Swamp Witch," and "Fat Cow," but there...
