little boy, big hat

Dear Bo (Turbo, Turb, Bo-ee),

What a cute kid you are! More ornery than most children I've met. The child that I said my children wouldn't act like. But you know what? I like you. I would rather be around you any day than without you. You have more spunk, more attitude, more determination than I thought you would have. I honestly thought you would be the "easy one". Your brother was the hard-headed one, not my sweet little baby Bo. I hope you grow up to have more spunk, more attitude (well, not too much), more determination than most people you know. I hope you grow up to be what God wants you to be, and use those strong characteristics to be great!

You are asleep right now, and for that, I'm thankful. You've already been through 3 pairs of underwear today, two sets of clothes, and you've ate more so far than I will eat all day.

I hope you have a kid just like you someday:)

Love, Mom

My little garden

I begged for a garden this year, but Matt was not having it. So I asked my dad to come over and help me:) We put it all together on Tuesday night and filled it up with dirt. It's a couple of 2x8's screwed together and it sits on the ground instead of tilling up the yard.

Charity was nice enough to give me the "leftovers" of her garden expedition. Thanks, Charity! I got four tomato plants, four pepper plants (two green, two yellow), four cherry tomato plants, three jalapeno plants, and a bunch of onions. I'm really excited about these little plants. Hopefully, I'll have some great tomatoes this year!

It also rained a thousand inches yesterday. So I guess this guy probably about needed some sun this morning. But I bet anything that he wished he hadn't even got up. Slone found him, so now he's our new pet. He's already been in the house....but that was short lived once I found him. So now he's in a five gallon bucket in the shed. He's gross....I can't even hardly post this pic.


"Don't you have some house tidy to get done?"Can't you hear him? That's exactly what was being said at this moment:)
