Happy 6th Birthday Elfrieda


                                   Happy 6th Birthday Elfrieda
You are such a sweet sister. So loveable, impulsive, outdoor-loving, cute, affectionate, and everything else that makes a little girl sweet. We love you and may God bless your next year. I'm sorry I'm 5 days late but I hope you still enjoy these pictures of our princess. Please tell me which one is your favourite.

Math

Hi all you math fans out there. I decided a while ago that I would do math problem for a blog post one day. Well, here it is.
The bicyclists were 300 miles apart at 3 p.m. and were headed toward each other. If they met at 9 p.m. and one was traveling 20 miles per hour faster than the other, what was the speed of each bicyclist?
No, you won't get a prize for the right answer but I want to see how many replies I can get.
                           From your math enjoying bloggist,
                                                                                 Yesenia









I couldn't figure this one out. Smile

I'm Back!!!!

I am very glad to be back to blogging. After having a 4-5 week break, it's good to be back. But I wouldn't  discourage anyone from taking a break from blogging or the internet totally. It makes it worth so much more once you come back. We have had a lot going on during the time that I wasn't blogging but I won't try to start at the beginning of everything, I'll just give you an overview of our week and I might do some other posts later on.
  We had a very good Sunday at Willie and Marcie's. Of course we encountered some memories of Caleb and we want it that way. We really enjoyed ourselves.
  On Monday, Linda came over for lunch. We were enjoying ourselves around the table after lunch when we heard a crash and a bang!! We all knew it was her one-and-a-half year old daughter, Kaylee, falling down the steps, but Linda wasn't that worried because Kaylee falls often. She ran to get her and when she looked into her bleeding mouth, she almost panicked. "Her teeth, her teeth, what do I do??" For Kaylee's three front teeth had all broken out. Mama took her to the ER but they couldn't do very much for her there, so she went to Lethbridge. Her other girls just stayed at our house and I went with her to Lethbridge.
  Kaylee slept most of the drive, for which we were glad. David met us at the dentist's office and the dentists tried everything they could to save her teeth. But since the teeth had broken out with a piece of the bone, and they couldn't get somebody to put her to sleep, it just didn't work. They would just get the plaster on to keep the teeth in place and then she would break it out. Linda wasn't allowed in the room where Kaylee was, and yet, hearing her traumatic crying, pulled at her mother heart and of course on those around her. After over an hour wait in the waiting room, they finally just pulled the teeth out the rest of the way and we left. David told us over and over again that he wasn't becoming a dentist as we drove home. (He was holding Kaylee the whole time.)
  But even after such an ordeal, she sure still didn't lose her determined, busy character. To get the bad taste of blood out of her mouth, David bought her an ice cream. She wanted to eat it all by herself and every last bit of it too. 
  Please pray for Kaylee and her parents. We are really hoping that her teeth will come back nicely once she gets the second set, please help us pray.
  Yesterday we had Neil and Justina Dyck over for supper. We had a good evening.
  This evening we are planning to have another singing evening. I'm looking forward to it.
                                         Also looking forward to getting in contact with commenters,
                                                                                                                                          Yesenia
