Blooie, my friend

I can attest to Blooie's beautiful hummingbird photos. While I was getting cancer treatment and had to be away from home, she posted them daily to cheer me up. Amazing photography!

You brighten up a thread simply by posting on it. Your way with words, you say what so many of us are thinking but can't convey in the manner you can. You really have a gift.

Looking at your pics here, I now know why I felt such a kinship to you---we're house twins

Great interview from a great person! You always know the right things to say or have the perfect picture to brighten someone's day.

I'm so glad that the hummingbird pictures cheered you. In summer I spend hours out on the deck with my camera at the ready. Poor Ken would come out and ask me if I planned to sit there all day. I always told him that I wanted to get "that one picture of a lifetime". I should have said, "Leave me alone. Someday I'll meet Rachel and she might need some pictures of hummers!" Thanks for the kind words. You are an inspiration, and you have no idea how much help you've been to me as I watch little Ashley struggle with her leukemia!

That was great.
Your chicken sitter is a keeper. I am glad you got some fertile eggs for her to put under the broody.
Look what all it started...

Ah, 3goodeggs - another stalwart I try to emulate. Thanks for all the help you've been over the past year. Katie's parents probably aren't too sure about her obsession with Gramma's chickens. When Scout hatched she wanted them to build her a coop so Scout and Agatha could live there! When I tell Katie, "You're my heart" she grins and responds, "And you're my gizzard." Yep, she spends too much time with the chickens!

"You're my heart" and "You're my gizzard"...love that!
 
Before, I'd wanted to meet Blooie.

Now, I want to meet Katie---that girl's definitely after my heart!

Hey, how old is she? Sugar Monkey's only 14.........

Katiebug is 9. She's a love! And she's so doggone smart - too smart sometimes.






She came to me last fall and said she wanted to make a quilt. I thought that was fantastic - another quilter! I taught Little Diane too when she was 6! So I went out (I have a separate trailer for sewing, no kidding!) and grabbed a box of 2 inch squares I'd put together years before and brought them in the house. She started pressing seams, but then she said she thought they wouldn't make a very big quilt. Well, I was picturing her making a nice little doll quilt so I asked her how big she thought it had to be. She explained what she wanted. "Kendra doesn't have any nerves in her feet, Gramma, so she can be cold before she feels like she's cold. I wanna make a quilt to fit over her in her carseat and in her wheelchair." Okay, total heart melt. So we went back out and she chose her colors. Then she sat at the sewing machine and got busy. She learned quick!
