Kaitlin and mommy

Cute, beautiful, determined, independant, negotiator, fighter, sinsitive, loving, rambuctious, wild, funny, bossy, furosious, picky, caring, generous, kind, smart, strong willed, unique.  The words could keep coming.  Kaitlin is all of this and more.  She makes me smile, laugh and cry all in the same day.  I love her "atrillion houses", "to the moon and back", but she can get my blood boilng faster then anything.  I have the hardest time with Kaitlin.  We but heads and will have yelling matches.  We are to simular.  She is me and I am her. I am brought to tears in frustration, but that fristration turns to smiles and silly games.  I am so thankfull for my Kaitlin(yellow teeth and all)! 

A garden

With the ground still frozen, Jemahl went out to the back yard in attempts to make a garden.  He dug and dug (made some pretty good muscles) in the frozen dirt and gave up till the ground was a little more thawed.  He went out got the wood, dirt, fertilizer and hammered away and built me a garden.
A couple months before Leah was born I was out planting the garden.  Carrots, dill, peas, beans, cucumber and raspberries.
Jemahl would come home from work each day and would look for a sprout and then come in telling me I messed up the garden.  I reminded him it just took time....yes time and our garden did blossom. 

 The pants never stay on long...nothing like being half nude in the summer watering the garden

                      The weeds from just one day...alot can get accomplished at nap time!

We enjoyed ice cream pails full of fresh peas, a hand full of raspberries (next year will be a gooder, I think), green and yellow beans and even some carrots.  It was very tasty.  Can't wait to do it all again next year....but hopefully with alot less weeds.
