Today's Gift~ God is Good

I just had to slip ONE picture of the kitties in . They get

bigger each day. Their eyes are not open yet..but they

are so dear. They bring me comfort..so pure and sweet.

Columbine coming up

The bulbs are blooming

Of course ..I had to treat myself to some inside too.

JOYS

My Are They Growing

Click on the pictures to enlarge each one.

They are growing so fast. Still don't have their

eyes open ..they are 9 days old . All is good

and I just love each one of them.

I don't think my daughter, Mercedes, has given

them litter names yet.

The striped one needs a unique name for sure.

They all have some stripes somewhere on their bodies.

Kittens

My youngest daughter's cat Remy l (she's a black cat with gold eyes)

The daddy is white, gray and brown . This is the little striped cat.

So cute, has stripes all over, even the little legs. Looks like

Pippy Longstockings.

We Have Five New Kittens

My youngest daughter, Mercedes, moved back home last

Friday. We knew her cat Remy was expecting.

They arrived last night, Thursday.

It was amazing, no complications and all healthy.

My older daughter came over with her friend

Ashely and stayed for the births.

Even Rich was excitied!! It was an event

that needed little asisstance from us humans.

Here they are..2 all black, 1 striped, two black & white

Remy did so good. She had all 5 in about 4 hours, from

7.30 to 11.30 PM

All in a pile sleeping

Here they are today, Remy is up and walking and acting

so spry. Jumping up on the desk where Mercedes

is on the computer. She seems to be happy . The babies

are asleep..so she is out and about the house.

Amen & Amen

To All My Family and Friends

May this Valentine's Day bring you love & joy

It's Snowing Here

See the snow on the deer's back??

It's really coming down now.

These pics are from my kitchen window..These three

stayed out there for a long time. I know food is scarce now

for them. Wish I had some corn . Maybe I should go

get some of the corn that wasn't harvested up the road.

We also saw 15 eagles on the river..Illinois River

and two coyotes in a corn field ..on our way home from

my NeuroSurgeon.

Here's who came to visit. No food for Mr Sharp Shinned Hawk.

The birds all hid.

Warmer Weather

I was so thankful that it was warm enough and still light enough

to get these pictures of our friend the Great Barred Owl.

February is when they begin to nest and have babies.

They blend in with the trees so easily. I had plenty of photo shots, he

didn't seem to be bothered by me. I talked to him and he would look

at me. He must have known I am Snow White of the Singing Woods

The Pileated Woodpecker was in the trees in back also, but

not close enough for a picture.

I am thankful I got to see them today.
