New Mamma-Rare Site



Angel and I were headed out for a walk on this beautiful afternoon, Memorial Day, when we turned the corner about 3 blocks from our home and I saw a momma moose. We QUICKLY turned around and made a beeline to the house where I put Angel up and hoped in the car and went back down to where I saw the moose, and there was her baby with her. It couldn't be more than a few days old. So cute, BUT you do NOT want to get near them. You can tell momma had her ears down and was pretty nervous. She had been eating something, which she needed to do. She was pretty thin. This was my first time of seeing the young one so close to our house.

Beautiful Sun Shine and Sounds

I woke up this morning to the sun shining brightly through our windows. We opened the curtains and windows to let the sounds and fresh air come in. While I was sitting at the kitchen table, eating breakfast, in the nice warm sunshine, I heard a robin singing to me in the nearby trees. It was a beautiful sound, since I know once they get here after a long migration back to Alaska, spring is almost here. I am still waiting for the little swallows to make their way back to their nest near our kitchen window.
I even put on my shorts yesterday and probably will today also. My poor legs were so white from being hidden all winter, that I needed sun glasses on so I wouldn't be blinded by the brightness!
I talked to my sister, Glenda, today. She got out of the hospital yesterday and is staying with my aunt and uncle there in Denver, until after tomorrow when she has follow up appointments with her doctors. She seemed to doing pretty well now, she's able to eat and keep things down, and is managing the pain. She getting stronger and stronger each day. She will just need to take it easy for a few weeks yet, but I bet she bounces back pretty quickly. The Shaklee vitamins helped her
be nice and healty. :) Thank you all for your prayers and support.
