More pics from graduation, Madyson Wadell with her sister, Macee, Tisha Enfinger with Daniel, Caleb Loftis with Connerly Moody, and Tyler Newman, Madison Taylor and Ethan Oswalt doing their tunee ta dance. I am sure I spelled that wrong. But, the dance was really cute.

This is some of Mrs. Kims four year old class right before graduation. Aren't they cute? Nick at top left, Ethan at top right, Daniel at bottom left, Emma and Madison at bottom middle, Nick and Ethan bottom right.

Past Due

I know it has been a while since I last posted anything, but, with everything that went on with Misti, it was hard to focus for a while.

But, now I am getting back on track and moving forward.

Summer is here which is good news for all the school teachers and students but not such good news for me.... Now, at work, I get to prepare lunch for extra kids each day. All the after school kids that normally ate lunch at school, now get to eat at daycare.

First, let me say hats off to the teachers from New Hope that have children enrolled at ABC & Me that have pulled their children for the summer. It shows how much you love them and enjoy your time with them. I will miss them all. But, I am looking forward to seeing them again in the fall.

A long time employee of ABC & Me has left us.

Ms. Sheri Lopez worked with us for 9 years. She has decided to move to Texas to be close to her mom and family. I understand her move but, she, Michael Wayne, and Mylee will be dearly missed. The babies were lucky to have her as their teacher and I don't think anyone will ever be able to fill her shoes.

I love you Sheri.

Two of my favorite babies from daycare will also be greatly missed. Philip O'Bryant: the cutest little red head you have ever seen in you life, is out for the summer to spend time with his mom and sister. I am jealous of them. Philip is a great kid with a big smile and a sweet little country accent that would melt your heart. He is one of those that is too cute to get mad at. I love you Phil man and I can't wait for you to come back.

Next, Emma O'Bryant: This sweet little punkin head has left the daycare for good. She is going to daycamp at Propst Park this summer and then on to "big school" in the fall. She has outgrown daycare. I will miss you Emma O. I love you so much and will miss my morning "huggies" every day. I hope you enjoy daycamp with Anna Kate and come visit me soon.


Sorry it has been so long since I posted, but I will try to do better.

For my Two Followers and anyone else...

This past week has been the worst week ever. There are so many details that are too personal and I can't share. Lets just say that people you love will make choices you don't love and there is nothing you can do about it.

My daughter lost her baby. The details of this are too painful for me to talk about. I have accepted it, and I am trying my best to move on. At work, last week, my boss, Mrs. Anita, gave me a used bouncy seat. I was so excited to get it. I left it at work on Friday, forgot to bring it home. Misti lost the baby over the weekend. I went back to work on Monday, and there it was, waterworks all over again for me. And then I noticed the name on the bouncy seat, "Angel".

Lets just say, I cried alot that day. I know everything happens for a reason. I just still have not figured this one out. I did everything I could to take care of Misti, but, I guess it wasn't meant to be yet. I have never given as much of myself as I did with this.

I am sure one day, all of this will make sense. But, right now, it just hurts....

It's been a while!

So, it has been a long time since I have posted anything on here, but honestly, I have been very busy with work and life that I haven't had much time. But, things are starting back on the right track, so I will try to update anyone interested in my crazy life.


I am going to be a Mimmy. Not a granny, or a maw maw, or a nana, or a me me, or any of those things. I didn't want to be called granny, and my daughter, the pregnant one, loves Hello Kitty. Evidently there is a character in Hello Kitty named Mimmy and she chose the name for me. My nickname for Brian is Pookie, and Misti, has decided that he will remain Pookie. So, Mimmy and Pookie are gonna be grandparents. I was a little unsure about this at first. She is not married, enrolled in college, and so is the daddy. They are working on their futures and this was definitely not planned. But, what's done is done, so time to deal with it.

After the shock wore off, and I accepted it, I am okay with it now. I am excited about being a Mimmy!

Their plans for the future are not clear at this time because they have not told his parents yet. His dad was laid off due to the economy recently and has a job interview next Thursday, April 16th. After the interview which they are sure he will get, then they will tell them. They don't want to put too much stress on his family and I can't pressure them to do so. But, I wish they would tell them so I could talk to his mom, Mrs. Kathy and start planning. The due date according to her cycle is Nov. 28th 2009. We have not went to the doctor yet, but I am sure when I do take her, the due date might change. Doctor appt. is in May.

Bless her heart, she has morning sickness all day long. Everything she eats makes her sick. She will be hungry, eat a few bites, and off to the bathroom. Hopefully that won't last too long. This is her 7th week of pregnancy and 3rd week of sickness.

I will update more when I have more information.

Please pray for her health, the baby's health, and my sanity.

Happy New Year to all my followers! Ha Ha. This is still very new for me and I have not told anyone about it.

I had a great New Years Eve with Pookie, (Brian), and for the first time in a very long time, I had a few "grown up" drinks. Brian agreed to be the driver while I partied with an old friend from back in the day. I had a really good time, got some sugar at midnight, and then we made it home safely.

I miss my babies from work, and I am looking foward to going back.

This is my son, Joe. He gave me a hard time in his younger years, but has grown into such a mature, well rounded young man. He is a good boy with a good heart.
