hey my little family

what a few hours on a sunny day can do for you

i have never been an animal person i swore id never have a dog who wants to pick up poop not me but somehow in my baby hungry weakness i was convinced to relent by the other two mccalebs who said they desperately needed a puppy fine whatever just take care of her and pick up the poop

Taking the valentines happy girl

well as it turns out it was me who needed her the most i think if the test of the greatest among us is the one who will be the servant than penny wins in this houseok animal peoplei get it i really really get it

from the spring/summer 09 toast catalog 

i have been laying in bed sick since monday it seems to be getting worse by the day not better i am so irritated and antsy i miss my family and i want to clean my house 

cate and i went through some of the free options around the web for valentines to download and print 

Off to the kindergarten valentine party

cate (incredulously) what were you a child of adam and eve

i will i will i will please hold me accountable if you dont see the results posted next week the inspiration pieces

remember when the weather was warm and we would go to the park when daddy got home from work and we would bring homemade bread and fruit to eat for dinner and we would be drenched in golden light and the cousins would come meet us for some wild rides down the slide 

confession  i miss saved by the bell

i am given glimpses of the why and the good and the reasons and the plan the bigger picture and the necessity for some to not fit the mold

ready to share the love

and the dishes she cleans for me i dont even have to rinse before putting things in the dishwasher anymore and how warm she keeps my toesies while im sitting at the desk working on the computer who needs slippers it seems her only desire in life is to be close to us and all she asks for is an occasional pet and some food and water truly my lowest maintenance friend

the girl loves a project i mean LOVES it was like so fun to her to print them off plan how she wanted to present them go to the store for candy sign and put them together she just bossed me around and made sure i tied the string right
