Just two.  My second husband, the one that died of cancer, you know, had taken care of something before I met him.

I would have loved to have had more, but he wasn't keen on it.  He had three of his own and he and his first wife adopted a daughter too.  So there you have it.

I'm not saying what I used to say becaue I've learned my lesson about not being grateful for gifts from God.  Wanting or whining about something I don't have all that, oh enough already, I still feel very guilty about that though.

I can see some might misconstrue ^, not you tcm, I'm not referring to you.

But I was talking about a DIL's miscarriage there and that we knew he was a boy and we were going on about how come we can't have girls all the while his days were numbered, unbeknownst to any of us, very sad, what I call sad.

Never again will I say I want a girl, I just want whatever I'll be given.

Happy to me, is celebrating my son's 28th birthday today.  I can't believe it was 28 years ago, that I was getting ready to give birth.  He was born at 3:33 in the afternoon.  i've always considered 3 to be my lucky number. 

he has the BEST grin,lealta! you're a lucky woman!

He's a really good kid Barri.  I'm very proud of him.

as well you should  be,he's a fine young man,and a gentleman,because of you and your dear hubby! 🙂

That is very sad, Steppe. Now I understand what you were saying. 

Lealta, congrats to your son today. Happy Birthday. My oldest son is 26, and he was born in Dec at 4:44 am. 

Lovely sunny day in Melbourne.

How is everybody doing?    (no,  I did not ask about the footy!!!)

How is greencat doing today?  Are you more upbeat?   

TCM, your bird is beautiful.  Such pretty colors. Do you have other birds.  And do you still have your duck?

I'm happy because I've just watched Tom Jones sing Delilah at the Grand final and he hasn't lost

his touch.  The crowd went wild.
