Faithful Tulips






Tulip Pulling. . . tasting. . .
Singing to the tulips. . .
sitting in the tulips
scooting thru the tulips


The tulip season has been longer than usuall this year for some. . .
On my birthday last year my honey gave me a bag of tulip bulbs and we planted them for a family home evening activity this past fall. This is the kind of faith I understand. My sweet angel sang to the flowers and helped them to grow, and then one afternoon something happened to all the petals, I am sure it was not the wind. I did need a few minuites to get dinner ready and let my sweet pea loose in the back yard. She has taken several of them to Grandpa. . . she has not stopped picking flowers since.

Energy boost

Who couldn't use a boost of energy
Number 3 sounds good about now.
Number 7 would be nice at times but some how "The Wiggles" is the only option that wins

Parents' Everyday Energy BoostsIn a rut? Feeling too tired to tackle another chore? Try these tedium-busting tactics:
1. Head off in a different direction, with an alternate driving or walking route.
2. Find reasons to laugh -- and say thank you.
3. Wrap yourself in red or orange with a bright shawl or blanket.
4. Free up space and energy. Clear out the clutter in your purse, mail pile, bedroom, or car.
5. Lose yourself in a good book or film.
6. Be creative: Paint, write, knit, or sew.
7. Pump up the volume: Fast beats are energizing. Increase your heart rate with tempos that go from slow to fast.
8. Take a hike: Get a natural high from beaches, mountains, lakes, forests.
