"It's May, it's May, the lusty month of May. . ."

Oh, my, I am behind!! After Noah's birthday, we celebrate Dawn - and continue to be grateful that Harry found her and had the good sense to hang on to her!!

 

The 19th is my mama's birthday - our third year without her with us!  We miss her, of course, but treasure the many years we had with her.

 

I always recall Betsy's birthday - because she missed mine by a day! When I would tell Grandma Stevens that Alice missed being born on her birthday by just one day, she'd say, "Might as well be an inch as a mile. She still missed it!"

 

Roseann and I share a birthday - same day, same year! The original Birthday Buddy!

 

Frankie's birthday is today - he's 4! And talking about Birthday Buddies, little Lee Lawrence Terrill made his debut on Grandma Mary's birthday! 

May continues to fill up with birthdays - at last count, there were 48 on my Birthday Calendar!!

Happy Birthday World!

Happy Birthday Noah!

How can it be 32 years since Noah was born??

 

He's a blessing to our family!

 

  And so is Taylor and

Keesa and Frank - and we are excited to welcome baby brother Lee Lawrence next week!!

Hope it's the best year ever Noah!!

The May Birthdays Begin!

Polly's birthday is today! She was born on Mother's Day - and I was there in Virginia - when I arrived, Eliza was sure that the baby would be late since I had already come.

But it all worked out just right!

Polly continues to be a joy to all -  what a smile, what a personality!

Happy 4th birthday sweet girl!

And then two years later, Ralph decided to come on the 10th also - I got there soon after he was born - and stayed 3 weeks - and had a wonderful time.

Ralph is becoming a most charming little guy - we love being with him!

Happy day to you young man!!

Note to the one or two readers of this blog:  I thought I had posted this to post yesterday the 10th - but apparently it did not - so it's late!!

April came and went - just like that!

April sure whizzed by - enjoyed General Conference!!

 

And Easter.

 

A photo of me - pregnant with Eliza - 

 

and so we celebrated Eliza in April!

 

And now it's May - Happy May Day!!

Resolved:  Be better about blogging!
