Waiting patiently

I did some errands with Sarah early this morning before much of the snow fell. After we came back and I got her settled(which can take a while-lol) I ran back out to the car for something and look who was waiting so patiently! Bear! We call him Bear. He must have fallen out when I took Sarah out of the car:) He always remains in the car. He is Sarah's traveling buddy. but, from the look on his face I would say he was quite happy to breathe a bit of fresh air. Even if he was covered with snow!

And So It Goes

I guess this picture speaks for itself.

I've always been a Mama's Girl

An Oldie

This would be sister Ali and myself playing a board game in our grandmother's back yard in Provincetown. It is about 1968. I can't quite tell which board game it is. But I AM sure that I am winning....
See that green 'line' behind us? That is a fence dividing my grammy's property with Mrs. Prader's property next door. First of all, it is a pathetic fence. Secondly, god forbid one of our toys(balls) rolled under that 'fence' into Mrs. Prader's yard. She was not a nice woman. We lived in fear of anything ending up in her yard. She used to peek at us through her windows. And strangely, I never remember her ever being outside in her yard. I rarely saw her. And we lived with Grammy every summer until I was about 12. Mom stayed with us while dad flew back and forth on weekends from McLean, Virginia-- which is where we lived during the school year.

The Teeth-hers and mine

In case you were wondering WHERE Sarah's teeth came from... I have put up a couple of pictures of myself around the age of 9 before I got my braces. You can see exactly where Sarah's teeth came from. LOL. She will get braces also.

Should I or shouldn't I......

CUT IT????????

This is the tangled mess that greets me every morning.

It looks so pretty after I've brushed it and fixed it up.

But sometimes there are tears from Miss Sarah....
