Let us touch the dying, the poor, the lonely and the unwanted
according to the graces we have received and let us not be ashamed or
slow to do the humble work.

I am the proud mom to 6 kids: Natasha, 24, Nikolai, 20, Reese, 20, Maylee, 14, Erik, 10 and Violet, 7. The kids come from Russia, Ukraine and China; I'm so proud of my family sometimes I think I'll burst and I needed an outlet for it - so I've created this weblog. :o)

Here is our little baby girl. She had her surgery today and it went well. The doctor said that there is a 98 - 99% chance that she will be just fine and that in a month or two she can resume her normal activity (a month or two?? Knowing Daisy, in a day or two she'll be bouncing off the walls with glee!). But for now she is resting comfortably in her little bed, all bandaged up. Poor little thing!! She looked SOOOO sad on the drive home. I almost couldn't look at her. You can't really see the bandages very well in this picture, but both knees are bandaged pretty thoroughly. Should be fun keeping them on and her stitches clean for 10 days...! Ack!! Thanks for the prayers and all of the concern! The support for us with her has been amazing. She is quite a dog, and very, very loved.



Mark is still out of town (wahh!!) but he sent me these flowers to tell me how much he missed me and loved me. Isn't that the sweetest thing you've ever heard??? I love him so much!!


Here was Daisy last night, feeling miserable. Not sure if she's more miserable now, or then, though!! Poor little thing! I know she misses her daddy.

If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap.
If you want happiness for a day, go fishing.
If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.
