THANK YOU BOB !!!!!!!!

Just wanted to share this gift Bob gave me. We had dropped off Molly, Mike, and Brock off at the airport on Jan. 3rd. Well, I was sad and feeling very low, and Bob and I walked around the Mall in Colorado Springs. I kept wiping tears out of my eyes, thinking of all the fun we had with M/M, and Brock, and we came across a Zales. We went in and I tried on a beautiful heart shaped diamond ring for kicks. It fit perfect. I wear a size 7....Well, Bob asked if I really liked it, as I kept staring at this ring on my finger and said "YES". Well, He bought it for me right there, plus we put a band on each side of it and had it soldered. I got it yesterday and wanted to tell Bob publicly I love my heart shaped diamond ring, and I love him. We have our ups and downs but I know Bob loves me and I love him. God is really helping us. My Dad's last words to me before he died was "Love eachother, and take care of eachother" . We are Dad. we are. Thank you xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

The New JOB.......... :)

Well I started my new job. It was very hard to say good-bye to the old bunch of kids. Gulp. But, now I have started a new child care place and a whole new bunch of kids. Just today at lunch I was doing math with my table of kids. I held up fingers and added one side to the other. "Okay how many is this? (holding up four fingers on each hand). they counted 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8. Great. I kept doing these counting games. Well we were almost finished with lunch and one of the kids says to me....."Miss Gail, I never had a teacher as smart as you." Oh man, that was funny. I have never been good at math, and he made me feel like a math whiz. Now I only have 4 and 5 year olds. So much easier. I use to have 2 1/2-5 yr olds. But the class I am helping has 20 kids from 10am-3pm. I even get to ride the bus with some of them. All in all it is going very well. I have worked 7 am to 7 pm the last two days. I am ok. Tomorrow I work 7 am -3 pm. And that starts my weekend. NO Fridays!!! Plus Monday is a paid holiday. Yippie, a four day weekend. I like this new job........Happy Weekend..and Go Bears.

Great Memories.......................

Happy New Year. What a great way to ring in 2007. We had so much fun with Molly, Mike and Brock. We did a lot, yet had a lot of relaxing time too. Got to show Brock camels, peacocks, piggies, chickens, bunnies, goats, horses, cows, our dogs. He loved Izzy. Izzy loved him. We got to take him on a horse ride at the in-laws. That was fun. Molly and Mike got to ride too. Brock put on dad's cowboy hat, grabbed it, waved it in the air and yelled "yee haw." Oh my gosh what a great memory. Brock's favorite word is "CHICKEN". He says chicken about every other conversation. Its a hoot. "You're a chicken." So funny. Bob and Mike went looking for bargins together and Molly, Brock and I went to the mall and shopped. We ate sushi, prime rib, banana pancakes, steaks, french toast, tacos and more. Oh man it was fun. Went to a very cool Steak House in Denver that had a very long , fast slide to go down. That was fun but the dinner wasn't the greatest. We met Doc and Laurie, my cousins there. Brock loved the slide. We want them to come back in the summer so we can take them to the ranch. It was a great time. Molly and Bob even went to the gym together and worked out. I stayed home and watched Brock every chance I got. We had fun with all the toys and bubbles, and the dogs. I love that Boy.
Other good news...I was interviewed and called to take the job at a different Child Care place. I was highly recommended to them by my friend Kelley. I am nervous, and I will miss the kids I care for so much. Tomorrow is my last day. Monday I start the new job. I pray this new adventure will make God happy. I just want to do what God wants me to do. Teach kids. So that is the exciting week we had here in snowy Colorado. Two blizzards, and a new snow storm due tomorrow. It sure is beautiful. And we really need the moisture. I am just so glad we had the time with Molly, Mike and Brock inbetween snow storms. Thanks God. Today it was fifty degrees out. Nice.......
