Translation: Dear Grandpa, you gave me my favorite person. Can you guess right here_____________. You got it! Yes! Daddy! Bye. I love you. From, Franklin. I have a feeling he has no idea how special this note will be to Grandpa. 2009-01-06 http://www.pleonast.com/user/notcool?l=5&entryID=615589 Sit back and enjoy this pretty song. Mindy Smith "Angel Doves" 2009-01-04 http://www.pleonast.com/user/notcool?l=5&entryID=615017 There are a lot of grumpy store employees out there. Yikes! 2009-01-02 http://www.pleonast.com/user/notcool?l=5&entryID=614480 Just randomly I was thinking about the verse of "Down in My Heart" that says "I want the peace that passes understanding down in my heart." I've sung it 5 million times and I finally really thought about it. I DO WANT the peace that surpasses all understanding down in my heart! I have to put in the effort of studying and focusing on the word to reach that goal. I want to do better on that this coming year. 2008-12-31 http://www.pleonast.com/user/notcool?l=5&entryID=611975 Gram has graduated from answering "no" to everything and is now answering with, "otay". I love it. I want to smooch his sweet baby lips each time he says it. --------------------------------------------------------------- wellness update - everyone is doing good. Franklin and Matt dodged the bullet thus far. 2008-12-22 http://www.pleonast.com/user/notcool?l=5&entryID=611422 weak, but stable. Franklin and Matt still in the clear. Thank you for your prayers and concern. 2008-12-20 http://www.pleonast.com/user/notcool?l=5&entryID=611294 Gram, now Molly and me. Lots of vomiting. Miserable. Goodnight. 2008-12-20 http://www.pleonast.com/user/notcool?l=5&entryID=607186 but isn't it fabulous when your kids say, "Mommy, go do something else while we play. We're pretending you're not home." Well, OK! (They are playing Cat in the Hat.) That request is almost as good as, "Mommy, pretend you're asleep." NO problem! 2008-12-08 http://www.pleonast.com/user/notcool?l=5&entryID=606801 2008-12-07 http://www.pleonast.com/user/notcool?l=5&entryID=605681 They left yesterday. We had such a nice visit. Franklin and Andrew played full throttle all day everyday. We are so sad to see them go and I hate to think of how long it will be before we're together again. Moments after they left for the airport, Franklin went out to the playscape and just sat and cried. He loves his cousin so much. In case it wasn't obvious from her videos, they have some precious children. I can't wait to post the pictures she took of the family. My baby is 18 months now and getting so BIG. Not planning on anymore wee ones in this family, so every lb. and inch is kinda sad for me. He has a runny nose and Molly isn't feeling real hot either. They took turns moaning and groaning last night. Then Franklin had a bad dream, so I'm lacking sleep. What's new? *YAWN* Hope you have a good day! 2008-12-03
