Happy Halloween from Ms Kaydie
Kaydie made this with a little help from me. The eyes and nose a \re made from nut shells(my idea).Thats a ghost sticking out of the top of the hat. She gave this artsy fartsy pumpkin to my bestfriend who Kaydie refurs to a her Aunt. I am so proud of this picture because of the fact it captures a wonderful and funny memory. If you look closely you can see the eyelashes that she insisted on having. " Mom, its a girl." she proclaimed. I get tickled every time i look at this picture. I love that little girl. Shes whimsical, and such a joy in my life. I can't tell you how many lifes she has touched in the short time that shes been here. Her smile lights a room and has sense the day she was born. Other people brag on her like shes there child. I heard the name Kaydie when i was 9 yrs old and told my Mom that i would someday be naming my daughter that beautiful name. She smiled and said,"Ok sweety." Now the spelling my Mom and i figured out together. You see my Moms' middle name is Kay. So Kay in honor of my Mom die the second half of Windie. Thats how the name and spelling came about.{Kaydie}

What Women need and want
Men need and want ADMIRATION. See Friday's email. Women need and want ATTENTION. Someone sent me a book entitled "What men know about women?" You guessed it, it was totally blank, NOTHING. Someone said if a man thinks for one minute he can understand women he has timed it just about right!
Why women do it
There is a valid reason women have their weeping spells, spend so much time shopping, fixing their hair, changing the furniture around and a thousand other things characteristic of women. Women need attention. God wired them that way. They will do anything in the world to get attention (more on this later). If we men every realize that and feed them the right kind of attention it can transform the relationship and marriage.
Her hair do
Here is a woman, she goes to the beauty parlor, gets her hair washed, rolled up in those rat tails (curlers), sits under the hair dryer. The operator spend hours, it seems, fixing her hair. She comes home and her husband never notices. Finally she asks, "How do you like my new hair do." He hasn't slipped, he slupped. Than he makes a quick glance and says casually, "It looks fine" or some other casual remark and she begins to bawl. The smart husband will stop everything and rave about her hair and how beautiful she is. That will get him a few hundred points that night.
Husbands are to "cherish" their wives Eph. 5:29. That means to give her TLC, tender loving care, and that includes noticing her, giving her attention.
Notice your wife
Husbands notice you wife, her dress, her shoes, her makeup, any thing new and PAY ATTENTION by giving her the compliments she deserves and desires. More on this and examples of what to do. Next time I am going to tell you how to save tons of money if you will do this one simple thing. From the writings of Sumner Wemp

I hope you enjoy the pictures. Are you aware that if everyone drops 1 piece of trash we'd be in real trouble? We all need to stop and think. Please remember somebody has to pick up what we drop. Now I don't know about you, but I personally don't like picking up other peoples trash.

Ms Jean
Have you ever helped someone only to find out that they helped you more than you helped them? Well, that was the case with Ms.Jean. I was hired to sit and aide my cousins mother in law who was in the last stages of cancer. Hospise came everyday to give me instructions to better care for her and what to relay to her husband . Her husband wanted so badly to stay @ home with her,but had to work. I ask her husband why the curtains were closed making the room dark and depressing. He informed me that it was her idea and that she wanted nothing to do with the outside world. So that day I ask her what I could do to make her want to look out of her window. She thought about it and finally said,"A humming bird feeder." I rushed to the phone and called her husband to tell him about the humming bird feeder. The next morning as I reached over to open the curtian she began fussing at me. As soon as the humming bird feeder was in sight she became silent for a moment. With tears in her eyes she said,"Thank you." I told her that it wasn't me,it was her husband that did it. "Oh,I love that man" she said wiping away her tears. My next mission was to get her out of that room. I ask her a few days later if I could take her to the other room. Without hesitation she said,"Ok ,but while I'm out of this bed I might as well get my hair cut." I was so excited that went to the phone to make arrangements right away. A few days later her pain became so unbareable that her husband and I could no longer get her to eat anything. I had to do something to get her to eat. I showed up one morning with cooking magazines. I turned her tv on and tuned it to the cooking channel. I talked about food all day long. Toward the end of the day i ask her what her favorite meal was. She licked her lips and said,"fried shrimp,hush puppies,fried catfish,and french bread." I bet you can guess what she and her husband ate for dinner that night. Now she didn't eat much,but she ate. About a week later I ask Ms.Jean if there were any movies she would like to see. She thought about it all day and finally said,"E.T.". So that night she enjoyed watching E.T.. Not long after that she passed on. I miss her,but I'm thankful for the time I spent with her. She taught me so much. Thanks Ms.Jean.

Can anyone tell me
Can anyone tell me how to...I found a chihuahua puppy that i adopted. She is as sweet as she can be,but she acts like shes been beaten. We named her Gracie. I am reluctant to get onto her when she pottys in the house (ALL OVER) and she chews everything. Help me please. She acts scared when I leave her outside after eating to potty. As soon as I bring her in she pottys in the house. I'm tired of scrubbing my carpet. Can anyone tell me what I should do?

come one come all
Yesterday was a very uplifting day. I joined The Church Of The Woodlands East. Every Sunday people greet you with a welcoming smile thats genuine. Then they have tables set up should you want juice or coffee. As your about to enter the worship hall a person hands you your bulleton and a pen. How many times have you been sitting in church and wanted to jot something down that you would like to recall later and you have NO PEN? Everyone shuffles to there seats and the music starts. Let me tell you something about the music. It's like being at a concert. Nobody does anything strange. Everybody is just enjoying the uplifting music. The preacher preaches and he makes you think and laugh. By the time it's time to go you have a smile on your face and a lighter heart. You leave thinking I'll be back next Sunday. This Sunday the subject was 2012. Theres a movie coming out called 2012. Some people believe it's the end of the world. I say NOT! If you read your Bible God says NO MAN KNOWETH THE DAY OR THE HOUR. www.woodlandschurch.tv

Who Done It
Don't you love a good who done it? Oh i do. I love CSI Las Vegas and CSI New York. I find it very intersting. And i like to figure it out before they do. A little detective work gives me a brake from everything my brain worries about during the day. You should try it . It's a rush solving the case before the characters do. Then I get to be proud that i was intellagent enough to beat them to the punch and pat myself on the back. That feels pretty good to. It's a great escape. Not to mention you really begin to like the characters and get involved with there story line. Give it a try and see what you think. Warning....children should not watch with you.

Fashion
Kaydie and I had a Barbie fashion show. It brought back the memory of my Mom and I doing the same thing. I even made some of the outfits. Boy is it hard to measure a Barbie doll for clothes. I made a runway and I announced them as Kaydie made them strut down the runway.We had so much fun. I know my Mom was looking down at us and smiling. I hope I'm as fun as my Momma was. She could make anything fun. And she always made time for me. I had all the love in the world. I have memories to last a lifetime.

Dress up
My daughter loves to play dress up. Remember when we were kids and let our imaginations run wild? I'm Superman,a little boy would holler as he pretended to fly around with his arms stretched out in front of him. While a little girl would be hollering oh yah?!!? I'm Wonder Woman! And she's stronger than stupid old Superman. Then there would be a battle back and forth going something like this. Nuh uh.Ya huh. Until Mom would come out and say nobodies stronger than anybody else. Well, times haven't changed much.My daughter,Kaydie informed a little boy she was playing with that she's going to be a doctor when she grows up. When this little boy shot back Nuh uh only boys can be doctors! Kaydie puffed up her chest and said thats not so. You are just saying that because i could do it better than you can! It took everything i and the other parents had not to bust out laughing. You have to admit that was a very smart remark. I wanted to stand up and say thats right she told you. Instead i said nothing just grinned.

Sieze The Day
Well, It's Friday! And my daughter already has a costume for next Saturdays Halloween. She will be visiting her Dad.I do hope he remembers to minimize the sugar or she will be bouncing off the walls and she defintely won't be sleeping. She's growing so fast. I remember the day she was born. 6lbs 7oz. she was so tiny. And now she's almost as tall as me. And she still lights up a room and commands everyones attention without a word spoken from her lips just a smile. She just has a kindness about her. She can make anyone smile. God must have really loved me to give me Kaydie. I couldn't have hand picked a better child. I love seeing things through her eyes. She notices things I don't even pay attention to. What's a special memory that you cherish? And when's the last time you played and enjoyed life as if you were a kid again?

Music and why we love it
Music makes us feel any emotion really. Try this experiment mute the sound on a movie and watch it. Then watch it again with the sound and notice the difference.I enjoy songs of praise,classical music,musicals,and rock n' roll (some of it). Do you ever get those commercial jiggles stuck in your head. It's cool for a while,but then you can't seem to erase them from what my grandmother called your tape it's annoying. How many of you remember the coke a cola song? I'd like 2 teach the world 2 sing in perfect harmony...... Or the band aid song? I am stuck on band aid brand so germs don't stick on me...... Or the ever famous McDonalds song? @all beef patties special lettuce cheese served on a sesame bun.You deserve a brake today @ mcdonalds... Why does our brain hold onto useless junk? And some of the things we want to remember won't stick. Just a thought.

Nature girl
My daughter is outgoing and quiet the nature girl. These pictures were taken in my yard. Do you see my little monkey in the tree? Don't you just love roses? Oh I do. There delicate, dainty, beautiful flowers. Don't you think? No 2 are the same. And I enjoy there fragrance. Roses are given out of love, a plea for forgiveness, and for condolences. So apparently I'm not the only one who smiles when they see roses. Although I have to say my preference is not a bundle of roses, but one long stem yellow rose. I think anyone can run and grab a quick bundle of roses. But, if a man takes the time to pick one perfect yellow rose for me; I melt like butter.

Dances your cares away
Well I took my daughter to dance class today. She takes jazz and ballet/tap classes. You should she her. She is absolutely amazing. The energy and pep in her step makes me remember what its like to be a kid. How when your a kid you have not a care in the world. And your so wrapped up in the moment that nothing else matters. No worries, no concerns, nothing ,but the here and now. Maybe sometimes we should take time to dance and be a kid again. As my 5 year old daughter puts it,"Lets dance till we have happy feet again."

Gerard Butler is absolutely gorious
I must tell you up front I wrote the note on the bare chested picture of Gerry. He is dreamy isn't he? You can see him in P.S. I Love You; Dear Frankie; 300; Phantom Of The Opera; Dracula 2000; and the list goes on and on. Trust me he is not only good looking,but he is talented as well. He can act & sing. And I've never heard and unkind word said about him. I am proud of him staying down to earth instead of surcoming to the hollywood hype. Go rent his movies and enjoy. :)
