Bass she started to read at christmas and now cant stop every time i see her she has a book or pen and paper in her hand. She loves helping out with her younger brother Charlie so I know she will make a great mum to. Every one who see's her says she looks like her auntie Julie (dad's side) i can see that but omg she looks like my little sis Katie and sleeps like her acts like her and thats where she get her love for art from.

I have been in freezing Iowa yes -45 below my car wont start. School has only been in for only 2 days this week. It has been a mess with the kids at home, don't get me wrong l love them but l don't get anything done , clean up one room then they are making a mess in the other. l can't believe l am copping with the car not working , l think it is because l have not had to use the car much so l have relied on hubby's car. p.s. thank you to my bf for helping me on Tuesday . The library has been in the news this week a bit courier newspaper and Des Moines reg and i hate to say it but i was on channel 9 . My hubby is home today he has hurt his arm .
