Sister!

Anyone who knows me knows that those females who are near and dear to me I affectionately call them "Sistah". Here is a picture of my sister and me with my mom and a picture of my mom and her sister, Ann. My mom is the youngest of 10 children. There were 9 girls and a brother right in the middle. My aunts were always involved in our lives. They spent holidays and special occasions with us. They showed us how special and important a sister relationship really is. They have always been there for each other. Luckily I was blessed with a sister myself. My sister is my best friend. I do not know what I would do without her. She has been there for me in both the good times and bad times. Her daughter Caroline and Analynn hopefully will share a sisterhood that we have shared. So if I call you "Sistah" you know you mean a lot to me.

We miss Caroline!!!!

This is a picture of my mom's three granddaughters. Caroline is the blonde and the oldest of the three. Analynn falls in the middle and Phoebe is the youngest. Caroline is my biggest fan. Anyone says anything bad about "her Nan" and Caroline takes up for me. When my sister was in preterm labor Caroline was with me every Wednesday. Since the storm they now live in Baton Rouge and we do not see them as much. We are hoping to see them next weekend. WE MISS CAROLINE! WE LOVE CAROLINE!

Just what I wanted

Yesterday we went on the Honey Island Swamp tour. I let both of the kids get a souvenir. This bug keeper is what Analynn picked out. In the evening we went to Family night at school. The kids caught this roach and decided to keep the in the keeper. Rob told Analynn she needed to let the roach go because she was not bringing it in the house. She said "I am not letting him go, it is the pet I always wanted." We are definitely pet retarded.
