grand-daughters' photo I wanted to share

14 years ago

I can't resist showing off this photo of my two littlest grand-daughters. Madison (7) and MacKenzie (5).

They were at a petting zoo while vacationing in OR, and got to hold and play with a 5 week old Leopard cub. He's totally adorable. What tickles me is that right now, his eyes are as blue as theirs. LOL.

I love this photo and just wanted to share it. Today is MacKenzie's 5th birthday too.

hugs, Karen

Ohhhhh, thanks everyone!! (-: You've all made my day!! To answer your questions - Jan, the center piece is a round vase and it's sitting on a small scalloped edge dish the other 2 pieces are long vases and a large platter for the top and another for the base. The top one is gorgeous, it's covered with roses. It would look gorgeous with a cake on it for a special occasion. I don't do christmas as I'm a Jehovah's Witness so I wouldn't personally use it for that but it's a great idea Llena. Oh I just thought of something now that you've given me the idea, wouldn't these be great for wedding cakes??!! Not huge heavy cakes as that could end in disaster if it was too heavy and toppled over YIKES!! But not so heavy cakes like sponges etc would look beautiful - OK, marketing idea!! lol I picked all the pieces up from garage sales, some years ago. I don't even know why I bought them, I just saw them and thought they'd come in handy for something eventually lol. Sorie, it's 43cm (17") tall. Thanks again for the lovely kind words and thank you for the fabulous ideas and wonderful gardens and 'garden junk' I've been loving looking at!! (((hugs))) Tracey

Love, love, love your Princess Alexandra of Kent. I have two and I can't wait to see the blooms. Now I definitely will be checking on her everyday! I also noticed that she's very healthy, stock-wise. My P.A.K. is bushier than the other new intros I'd purchased. For example, I have Young Lycidas. Its first bloom was unimpressive. I will post a pic if someone requests. Thanks for the beautiful photo! Again, I can't wait for mine to bloom!!!!!!!!!!!!

Laura, They look great. You'll be picking ripe tomatoes before you know it. I hope y'all have fun at Sea World. I don't know if having a web cam up would be a good thing or a bad thing.....if something happened....like an attack of killer hail....knowing about it could ruin your trip. Dawn

grand-daughter don't want to leave us

I've not had the same experience exactly but whenever I take my 6 year old and my 3 year old to my mother in laws, she babysits for them when I go to school one night a week for a couple of hours, anyway, when it is time to come home my 6 year old absolutely throws the biggest fit imaginable. I do believe that at grandma's house they have her undivided attention all the time, they watch movies with her, color, and pretty much everything else a child would do with their grandma. I am a SAHM, with my kids 24 hours a day except the oldest when he is at school. I think that it is perfectly normal for your grand daughter to act this way, I remember doing the same thing when I was little. I don't know what you can do to make things easier on her and you when its time to go home though. I haven't figured that part out myself yet. Hopefully someone will have some ideas for you! Angie

Karen your grand daughters are beautiful!!! I love their blue eyes and I got chills when I realized the leopard had the same blue eyes. Brown eyes are dominant in our family though we have a few, My Grand Daughter has Blue eyes and My Sister and Daddy, one in each generation. Those girls of your are going to be heart breakers!!!!Bet they get that from you!!!!!

So-o-o-o-o beautiful. You are blessed without measure!!!!

I had the great fortune to raise my grandbabylove on and off for 8 years. I was able to create an intire glorious childhood for her that I never had. She became my full time job, my hobby, my passion, .... almost my whole heart. It has been almost 2 years since I have seen her. Which seems like 2 eternities.

I saw a Grandmum yesterday being crabby to her little grand daughter. I would have loved to have picked that 4 yr old up and held her. In our current society, people do not really even want you to speak to their children. If you have the priviledge to have a babylove in your home or inner circle, you are blessed. "Such as these are of the Kingdom of Heaven."

Thank you SO much for the wonderful words on my little grand-daughters. They have a big sister, Meagan, who is 20.
I call them my M&Ms. LOL.
{{gwi:127731}}

I'm blessed to have 8 grandkids in all. My oldest son Michael, has a boy (23) and a girl (19) in college. My youngest son, Jason, has two little boys (6 and 11) and a stepdaughter (15). Tho none of us consider her "step", she's totally ours, we love her so much and she came in our family at age 2.

I'm very proud of my family, and feel lucky beyond words.
LOL,Carrie, I may have broken a few hearts in my younger days but sure couldn't hold a candle to these girls. I didn't even get the blue eyes, darn it. Mine are a weird green. My Dad apparently gave his eyes to most of my kids 'n grandkids. LOL

One more photo, I promise. I just got this one that is a close-up of MacKenzie and the baby leopard. The eyes just tickle me to no end. And her turning 5 yrs old while he's 5 wks old. I swear he almost looks like he's smiling too. They make a pretty cute pair, even if I am terribly prejudiced. LOL.
