kids don't judge...adults think otherwise

Perfect example of how kids don't judge the bearded wonder.....

Adam and I were talking about this the other day....about how kids al love him, but adults think otherwise when they see a dark haired, tanned skin, bearded man talking or playing with kids. The other day in the store Adam was waiting for me and these two boys starting talking to Adam about the Old Navy doy and how it talks. The parents on the otherhand just gave Adam a weird look and moved their kids along. This has happened more than once before..is it just a "man' phobia or a beard man sterotype or does Adam look creepy to them? what is it?? Adam has a heart of gold, but people don't give him a chance, it's sad. He is so wonderful with children and they sense his kindness, but adults don't. Our society has ruined any chance of pure hearted men just talking with kids without someone thinking " oh he's a molester" Sad, sad, sad :(

no, not yet...i still need more time..........

28 more days, kids come back and back to the grind. well today is my offical first day of summer, that's right 2/3 into summer and it finally begins. no more teaching summer school, no more professional development, just days at home tidying up and getting things ready for school. who ever thinks that teachers get 3 months off in the summer is out of their sweet, blessed minds! a teachers job is never finished, it goes all year long, 60-80 work wks and the kids are always some where in the back of your mind " what can i do to help my kids??" anyways...please don't make me go back right now.....in 12 days, but not tonight ;)

FYI- these two don't go together!

I thought it would never happen to me, but it did...the toilet ate my phone and I had to fish it out (yuck!) Well I have been without a phone for four days and I feel as if a part of my body is missing. Isn't that sad, remember the time without cell phones- could we survive now?? Well, be safe and make sure that your phone doesn't fall victim to John!

seeing double....

Fourth of July fun was had by all, the kids ran and played on the home made slip and slide(so hillbilly) and then did they watch the fireworks???.....no! they were too involved with the puppies. We all had loads of fun throughout the holiday!

sometimes we had to resort to caging them :)
anabell....get in the kennel! Look she's a good girl, she needs a treat!

the world could have been exploding with fireworks, but they didn't care they just loved the puppies.

Fireworks in the background, but she's lookin' for the puppies!

Giddy up Vinny!!

Not everyone can be happy all the time

summer lovin'

FL time was spent at the beach lounging( besides the hospital visit for kidney stones..again..) We enjoyed St. Andrews island, skim boarding and Pineapple Willy's. Not enough time for vacation, but thankful for what we got this year. Back to the grind......
