Monday!!

Well it is the end of another Monday! They come so quick! The older you get the faster time flies! remember when you were a kid and it seemed like forever when you were waiting for Santa to come, or just to wait in line to see a movie seemed like days on end... Well now, it's like a flash of light that goes by with each day...they all start to run into each other and then weeks months, and years go by!.....CRAZY!!! well, Ms Lynn brought me in the most beautiful grapes that her Father has grown and picked for me to make some grape jelly! I am still trying to figure out how I am going to extract those darn little seeds from the middles!... It is a challenge! I wish I had Lucy to stomp them!! Hahaha... Love that show! "I Love Lucy" How did I get off on that??? Oh, well... I also picked peaches off of a tree that my Mother had planted in her yard probably 25 or 30 years ago.. i don't recall ever getting peaches off of it before.. but I am going to try to make some peach cobbler..or something.. with them.. Daycare was great today. We talked about how a lot of children don't have Fathers. I had one little girl who was very upset because she hadn't seen her father in over 3 months. Just because he is not with the Mother. If people only realized how they affect children. In order to help her try to work through this emptiness, I tried to encourage the other children to talk obout their Fathers and how many of them only get to see their Fathers every other weekend, due to divorce, and also the many children who have Fathers and even Mothers who are serving our country. Many of these children do not get to see them for months and months or even years!!! I can't even imagine what these children must be feeling. I always have had my Father close by. The furthest he ever went when I was a kid was to work, and when we mis-behaved we DREADED the words... " WAIT 'TILL YOUR FATHER GETS HOME!"...Man how the tables have turned!
