From Small things..Big things one day come

Sometimes the smallest things are the toughest...tiny doesn't mean weak and fragile doesn't break. Like the silk of a spider, that is stronger than steel, or the strength of an ant... small doesn't mean weak...

Over the past few weeks, I experience strength like this... not by me but by Big Sis... She made some decisions and choices that required the wisdom of Solomon and the strength of a diamond. As she has said, she is nearing the end of her long road, that she is almost home. Many of her wishes and wants are becoming a reality. Based on events of today and she now has a voice and a chance to get her "wants" listened too. Funny while waiting this morning my palm began to itch, I never remember if it means rain, money or a visitor... but I usually lean towards money, cause we got enough rain.... So as I itched the itch, I wondered what money I would get today... maybe the lottery.. to my surprise, I got a bigger treasure than old King Farouk... or as Visa says... Priceless ( Need I say more)

Cryptic message, I know... it is all good for Big Sis... she has been through a lot and that "lot" is slowly fading away...

Day started out with all of us up and getting dressed... kids off to school.. Toots and I off to battle "Dorthy's" demons... cause there is no place like home... ( Don't worry... not gonna break into song). Kiddos were at friends after school, I was nose to the grind stone catching up from my busy morning. Little Guy, Big Sis, Toots and I all were relieved and kind of walking on air.. Little Guy had an interesting day... friends started to sing a song.. Mrs. Toots had a baby and her head pop off... needless to say he didn't take kindly to his friend's singing.. he was a little upset but survived.

23 days.... and counting... had a friends ask tonight how far along Toots was... Big Sis said a few weeks.. I said 23 days.... Good ole counter.. like a Swiss army knife.. million uses... Big Sis repeats with a little "Duh Dad" 23 days is a few weeks... After I got over her ability to do math so fast... I explained.. when you get this close to the end... You don't count in weeks.. it is days... cause sometime 23 days can turn into... Gotta go.. Toots is in labor... You never know... ( she's not... she is sleeping... )

Short post tonight.... sure I missed something... but i am mentally exhausted and physically drained.... my words went elsewhere today...

Good night.... keep those cards and letters coming in... don't forget to enter the name game...
