Ruffles!

Guest written by our friend Clara Castro

I was on the phone talking to HOME SECURITY FAMILY about getting an alarm system installed when I heard a loud crash in the other room. As soon as I got off the phone with the representative and had made an appointment for them to come out next week, I peeked in the other room to see what the crash was. A jade tree that I had growing in the conservatory was on the ground. The plant stand was knocked over and the beautiful old Imari ceramic pot that it was growing in was smashed into a ton of little pieces. I have been growing that jade tree for years and it had just started to get big. For some reason, they are really hard to grown. My kids weren’t home, so I knew that they hadn’t been throwing the football in the house ( yes, a problem at our home sometimes). I thought about who the next culprit could be and then I saw Ruffles, our cat in the corner. He looked totally guilty. I was shocked that he had been able to knock over the plant stand. He usually never causes any problems in the house!

Fever

Jolaine is sick since yesterday. She is really hot! And she doesn't like to drink medicine I have to force her to drink it. I just want her to get well. She is not eating well I am afraid she is going to lose weight again. I really don't like it when my kids get sick because they won't eat and they loose weight so fast. They are already skinny..

Well, I hope she feels better soon. And hope it won't pass to us...

Jodel

My baby Jodel is gonna be five. Wow! To me she grows fast and she is pretty easy girl. She is very sweet, the sweetest girl of all. Jodel is a little bit shy but once you talk to her nicely she'll talk back and then she wont stop talking to you. My friends will always tells me that she is a talkative and a very sweet girl.

I love her so very much..
