Sunshine ....

 Today the sun is shining and I am happy.  It's not too warm by any means but oh I am loving this sunshine.
 Had a doctor's appointment this morning.  It was at with my optometrist. He says my vision has not changed and I am doing well.  I just love this doctor. He is so funny. He remembers my mother. He said today, "wow, I just am amazed at your mother having eleven children." " No dish washer, no  cleaning ladies. " I just laughed out loud. I told him she didn't hire what she could raise. She had many dish washers, floor sweepers and baby sitters. .LOL. We older kids did it all.
  Going to town later and enjoy just being out in this wonderful sunshine.  Hope you are getting some rays also. XO

  3. Beautiful weather here also! Lots of sun and warm temperatures. I am the oldest of 10. I can identify with what you are saying. I knew how to take care of babies when I was 10 years old not to mention washing dishes!

  9. It's been dark here all day. No sun. Love it when a doctor says all is well. I'm sure you all had to chip in to take of all of you.

  16. Oh, this cracks me up, Susie, because my mom never hired anyone to clean either - we did all the work haha, and her and my dad. How funny that your doctor remembers your mom. Eleven children - Yikes! My mother-in-law had 10! I really admire these women.

    I love these pictures of the trees. All the pretty colors of Autumn. Have a nice Friday tomorrow.

    love,

    1. Sheri, When I was young and found out I was pregnant for my third time ..I cried like a baby myself...then I had twins. Does God have a sense of humor or what? I have 4 daughters...I would be nuts if I had as many kids as mommy did. xoxo,Susie
