Luee

Luee
We adopted Luee from the Humane Society in 1996. He was 2 years old, but still a pup. He has slowed down a bit; his age is catching up to him. He is the best dog anyone could ever have. Luee had to be put to sleep on April 15, 2009. Rest in Peace Pup.

BE AN ANGEL AND A FAIRY TODAY


Good Monday Morning Speakies:

Trusting your weekend was great and fun filled and that we are ready to begin another week, yeah right. The kids down here are back to school and the roads are more congested with all those yellow buses stopping everywhere to load and unload the little ones.



Now a day’s people believe in aliens, vampires, ghosts, goblins, angels (I’ll have something to say about angels later) and zombies. We are forgetting one of our favorite believe-in characters the “TOOTH FAIRY.” The tooth fairy is a legendary fairy who gives children money or a gift in exchange for a baby tooth that has fallen out or as my dad did a little punch to help it fall. Children would then place the tooth under their pillow at night. It is said that the fairy would take the tooth and replace it with money after the child fell asleep. In early Europe tradition was to bury the tooth and that tradition is still alive in Ireland and Great Britain. It is even common for people to leave trails of “fairy dust” on the floor of the child’s room. That’s a pretty neat idea. Roe had a great idea something like that and I’ll tell you about it in another post.



Now for those angels I spoke about, today is “BE AN ANGEL DAY.” I guess for the little ones it can mean just don’t be a devil today or any day for Mom and Dad. To me all little kids are angels it’s the bad influence from home or outside that ruins them. For the rest of us it can mean be an angel to those in need, maybe a visit to a lonely person, a phone call to cheer a friend or just a kind act in general will do. Try it, I’m sure your heart will get that special feeling and maybe your Guardian Angel will shine a little brighter in back of you.

Well enough for today, have a great one and a wonderful evening. See you soon.
