I'm new to this scrapbooking stuff so you'll be seeing a lot of me. I paint furniture, walls and decorate but I just adore the cute paper decorations. <br /><br />Merry Christmas,<br />Shanna<br /><br />www.revampedfrenchmaison.comNo namehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10271263985764088812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904785229889075616.post-4594497733384389462009-05-24T10:41:40.617+01:002009-05-24T10:41:40.617+01:00Don't feel bad June, I had that same "sel...Don't feel bad June, I had that same "selfish, selfish, selfish" response to that story. I am pretty sure any mom would think that - even if for a short moment. Our instinct is to think of the child first. It's natural, I think.<br />Thanks so much for the chicken story & pics. I LOVE chickens & have this secret desire to raise some. Hee hee hee The poor bald things look so silly. If my wrist stops acting up I think I just will make some sweaters for them No Kidding!

I can spend a day with my grandchildren and am wore out, can't imagine having to do it full time again. And asking a 7 year old for advice, that sounds really nuts. Cute jackets for the hens. The whole world is going a bit crazy I think. I was reading about a 78 year-old woman who was arrested for beating her husband who is 84 because she thought he cheated on her 35 years ago! I think iwould have taken some kind of action 35 years ago LOL .

I thought that I was already on you...Evenin' June! I thought that I was already on your FOLLOW list, but apparently not and I am NOW!<br /><br />My, my ... you have provoked the thoughts of MANY this posting and I shall tell you this with ALL honesty - I have six children born when I was 23 up until the ripe 'ol age of 35 (twins mind you!). I had no thoughts of EVER having anymore until one day I found myself pregnant at the age of 48! YES! You have read correctly! Was I out of my head? Apparently! ROFL! NO, it was not intended and neither of us thought it possible either! SO, long story short, I miscarried and I am a believer in ALL things for a purpose and there was much that came from that experience, however, Robert and I every once-in-a-while will hear something or be watching something that has us looking at each other and saying, "aren't you glad we don't have a little one running about?" ROFL! Robert has two younger boys under that age of 10, living with their mum of course and it is so nice to be able to send them home after keeping up with them for a couple of weeks! Exhausting indeed!<br /><br />Okay, I've written a novel, so won't elaborate on the rest of your post. YES, things are CRAZY yet SOOOOOO wonderful all at the same time, however, I would NEVER give ear to the advice of a 7-year-old in such matters! I mean, REALLY NOW, she's had not ONE bit of experience to be qualified! LOL! *rolling eyes*<br /><br />SWEET little chickies - HAPPY to see they are being tended to SO wonderfully! *smile*<br /><br />I agree with you wholeheartedly, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" is my motto and I am SO glad that you are up and running.<br /><br />I, too, LOVE overlays and your papers are QUITE lovely, THANK YOU!<br /><br />Have a BEAUTIFUL week!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />Linda :)Linda Walton aka bobbysgirlforeverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17508413943491941194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904785229889075616.post-48014788849050876702009-05-20T17:45:07.450+01:002009-05-20T17:45:07.450+01:00Wow I hadn't heard some of those stories!

Who doesn't want their mother around for a long time to help with all the ups and downs in life? My youngest was born when I was 39, and it was harder than when I had my older sons. Who in their right mind would listen to the advise of a 7 year old? Too weird! The story about the chickens is too cute! Love them in their little coats, I hope they find home for them all.

What a post. You always cause me to ...Hello June,<br /><br />What a post. You always cause me to think - and smile. Every part of your post today is so relevant and well written. I have not been reading or posting blogs for a few weeks, and yours is the first on my "welcome back eila" tour.<br /><br />I was 19 when my son was born. I was 38 as he hit the world. I am thankful I had the energy in his early life, and the patience in the teen years. I agree it is so unfair to the child when one has them so late in life - for all of the reasons you stated. It is hard to lose a parent at any age... but when you are young, and just getting your footing - it is when you need your parents the most.<br /><br />A 7 year old? Now that truly frightens me on so many levels!!!!<br /><br />Your chicken story touched my heart. My sister has a featherless parrot - whose feathers will never grow back. (it has to do with a nervous disorder). Even bald birds need love!<br /><br />Google Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Kanab, Utah. They have wonderful stories about rescued animals. I have visited there (2 of my sisters work there). It is an amazing place and I think you will find it interesting and heart warming. (And the founders are from your homeland - and very nice people as well)<br /><br />Thank you so much for the papers. They are lovely.<br /><br />Sending a big ole Grizzly hugs from Montana!!!<br /><br />eilaeilajeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04615518394014483444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904785229889075616.post-17242448261961716982009-05-20T14:31:12.520+01:002009-05-20T14:31:12.520+01:00What an Awesome post!!!
