My Symphony
To live content with small means.
To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion.
To be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich.
To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly.
To listen to stars and birds, to listen and sages, with open heart.
To bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never.
In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common.
This is to be my symphony. ~ William Ellery Channing
The Nature Of Love
Love is the river of life in this world.
Think not that ye know it stand at the little tinkling rill-the first small fountain.
Not until you have gone through the rocky gorge, and not lost the stream;
not until you have gone through the meadow,
and the stream has widened and deepened until fleets could ride on its bosom;
not until beyond the meadow you have come to the unfathomable ocean,
and poured your treasures into its depth not until then can you know
what love is. ~ Henry Ward Beecher
Everything has beauty but not everyone sees it. ~ Confucius

Chicken or a Dog with it's Tail Between it's Legs
Howdy,
I just posted but you know showers make you think. Why am I so frightened of telling other about God I have so many times wanted to but I am afraid I have no clue why. I think maybe I am afraid of someone laughing at me or knowing more then me also I am not really a talker when it comes to strangers. But those are all foolish reasons!! I am just going to keep praying and reading the Bible maybe one day soon I will be able to wittness.
I think I should update you on my silly problem of the Jae and Mary Ellen thingy. I have to laugh at myself thinking Mary was Making Jen her new best friend those two are so funny togather you two fight like cats and dogs and I see that I have no worry when it comes to my friendship with Mary. Not that you are mean to each other but it is not like you never fight either. I think there has only been one time we really faught with each other and I will not bore you all with that story. Love you all and thanks for being my friends sanny

Find were the Pieces Go
Yo Yo Gal's and whom ever may be reading this,
Well I woke up at around 8 and Norah and I started talking although neither she nor I had our eyes open. Janelle came in and of course she wanted us to wake up, next Channing and Patrick came in Mary Ellen was still sleeping. the other three gals were in another room so I have no idea what was going. so after a while I got up and I read one book to Janelle then I found Mary Ellen in the room with Emily, Marty and Jea we talk for awhile. I went down stairs and helped Channing with his puzzle it was fun he wants me to name one of my kids, when I have one, after him I said Oh yah I will name it Yanning Anne, he loved it. Emily did all of our make up they say I have really great eyes for it. Thanks Emm sorry you had to do all of our make up. Next Channing started another puzzle and wanted me to help so I did for a short time. I had to go home so my lasagna would get done but all the girls wanted to go with me Melissa said that the house was so messy so all of us girls made quick work of cleaning the upstairs. we tried to get the van to start but someone had left it slightly on. so she was going to drive some of us in Daniel's car she lost the keys in the snow so I helped her find them. Mary, Norwell and I came here,To my house, I made the lasagna Norwell help thaw the hamburger. They listened to music then I went out and fed cow's and set up units they came out and I had Norah sign the board most of you have signed it. We all came in and Mary Ellen called home they left. Now Norah you may not like my bad spelling and I may have forgotten commas but I have but a few words for you DEAL WITH IT!!!!!!!!!! My sis called and said she was going to be late for supper so dad and I ate and went out to do the milking. my sis Say's my Lasagna was really good and I have to admit it was the best I had done. Not to be mean or anything my mom is not the best house keeper and so when she is gone it looks so good because I cleaned it. Man I feel like I am bragging!
love y'all Sandal

Sunshine and Summertime

Learning the Basic's
Well here I am again posting I have been for the last couple days taking care of the house mom is gone to help a woman out so I decided to clean the house while she was gone and man I like it I think we have only made it cleaner when company was coming. I did not finish with the cleaning because we moved calves and they really were stubborn they would not moved because they were scared of there own Shadow. You know I think we are afraid to move ahead in our own lives for the same reason we are scared of our own shadow. I went in the house and started supper I tried so long to call the Row's so I could get the recipe before it was to late so I finally called Emily's cell phone they must of heard it or something because they called me I got the recipe THANKS JAE!!!!!!! it turn out great I invited Grandma up to eat with us because I made so much. Of course I milked cow's. I love you all it makes me feel importune when you comment lol! Later dudes

Long Trails Lead Us Home
Hey,
I have not posted for a few days so this will be a quick update. Sunday dad and I went to Church mom went to babysit for a woman who is going to have a baby. After Church was pot luck then a business meeting I washed dishes Jae rinsed them. After that I went to were Mary Ellen was looking at a catalog we chose which furniture we wanted Tim came over then we drew on two people in the catalog but Charissa did not mind since she had left already besides no one told us not to. We then dance the reel or tried to anyways I danced with Channing and Isaac I just wish I could dance with the guy I like but I figure that when one day when I marry I will get enough dancing to last a life time. I went home and milked cow's the my cousin called I talked to her for an hour.
Monday I got up and finished my writing assignment then out to the barn I went bedding cow's feeding hay petting cats. When I was putting the cow's in the heifer got out and it took me forever to get it in. I ran to the house made dinner (mom was gone babysitting again) changed clothes and dad took me to writing class after that Jen and I played violin at 4:50 dad came and got me I again ran to the house to get supper ready. Next milking,shower, and violin then at 9:00 I went to the Row's we watched a movie then Mary Ellen and I talked it was a good thing to just be us two again. Thanks Mary I love you as a friend!!! Thanks everyone for commenting in my blog I love you all. Today Emily and I baby sat for the same people mom has been baby sitting for those kids could give anyone a head ache but I actually enjoyed the change in my day at three I came home and you what i did next my normal routine.
