In The Pink - Another Girl


GIRLS - GIRLS IN THE PINK ...




Yesterday, June 26th 2008 I found from ultrasound and pictures there is another little girl to grace this family. Kodie Layne is scheduled for her new place on earth November 17th. She is the daughter of my youngest son and his wife and has a big sister, Kiara who is 6 years old and starts school this fall. It was delightful and exciting watching her face as she saw the 3D face of her little sister, Kodie.



After a couple of miscarriages, we are now awaiting the birth of Kensley Faith,
the daughter of my middle son and his wife in the next few days.
She is due on July 8th, yet I am looking for a little firecracker! Her mom is ready I am sure of that. Kensley has an older brother, Ian who is 18 years old and a big sister, Haley who will be 9 years this September.
****************************

Having grandchildren is Gods' way of telling you,
"Hey there is more to life than work,
children and paying taxes".
I have been blessed with ten grandchildren in all -
seven are here on this earth,
two of them are ready to
make their presence known;
God has my angel, Macey Hope.
She was born premature and left her mark
here after three days of life,
she would have been 8 years old this year.
God Bless You, Macey Hope

A Grandmothers Prayer


Little people, tiny people
sent from above
God sent precious angels
for us all to love
Growing up so quickly
leaving home without a sound.
Soon they give us the gift of life
grandchildren all around.
I pray for them the finest life
that God will allow.
'Cause when it comes to grandchildren
my head will surely bow,
"God you know the reasons
for the little people’s lives.
They're sent here from Heaven
and in my heart love strives.
To make them feel so happy,

good things they endure.
Keep them safe and healthy,
so their little hearts stay pure.
And God, one thing I ask of you,
guide us all each day
To have the strength and honor
to teach them how to pray".

AMEN

Workplace & Assistant


My workplace - a cozy room all for me

Step inside and you will see

Containers of beads, clasps and such

Look around, you'll see oh so much

Rows and rows of my creations

Shown with delight and appreciation.






























This is my assistant, Kenzie - very patient and
helpful everyday. She plays and watches me with my creating as she I'm sure is wondering "why does she sit there like this everyday?" Really she is a very good girl and her great granny enjoys her company tremendously!





My Newest
Silver and Pearls -

A combination so
soothing to the eye.
I liked the look as I
slowly created this
set while spending
some quiet time after
Ian's graduation party.

Blooms of Global Warning?

Easter Lilies in June

Global warning – they talk about
Differences in temperature
Makes you want to shout!
Cold in the spring
Summer is sweltering
While lilies bloom
No way of sheltering
The beautiful white blooms
Of Easter pride
Now needs an umbrella
For the long, hot ride
Peaceful white flowers
For signs of spring
In mid-summer
Now blossoming.

Graduation - 2008


CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
Ian Scott Allison

Tomorrow, June 14th, my grandson, Ian graduates from Graham High School! As he takes that walk across the stage for his diploma, I wish him all the best that he can get out of life. He plans to go to ACC and further his education in Criminal Justice - my little "PeeWee" wants to be a policeman. I am so very proud of him no matter what he does and I know he will do it well.

"To you Ian, your grandmother loves you so very much and you have made me so proud of you and your accomplishments. Walk proud and do good, stand tall and others will stand by you. Make the best out of your life and what it has to offer you throughout your future. I love you, Ian!"
Love Always,
Mawmaw
