CAUGHT UP

Our middle daughter and hubby with their 4 children live about a 6 hour drive south of us. It is great to have them back in the same province, if not the same city!  We miss having them close!!  I love the way she thinks and writes and appreciate her wisdom - though she doesn't post nearly often enough for my mother heart!! She is one busy mom, plus she works!!



















This is one of her recent posts...

BATHROOM REALITY

Usually when I see graffiti on a bathroom wall I expect to see crude humor, phone numbers, initials in hearts...that kind of thing, right?
Well today I saw this:

Guilt is what I always feel
But that doesn't change the path I am on.........

...........for the rest of the story you are invited to read Evi's blog at CAUGHT UP !!

Hi Karin, Your daughter is one busy gal ---having 4 kids and also working. I often wonder how I did it myself. I raised 3 sons and always worked fulltime.. I met myself coming and going....

Some 'nice' graffiti????? That's interesting--and RARE.

Have a nice weekend.
Hugs,
Betsy

Thanks for providing the link to your daughter's blog. She's a good writer -- like her mother.

The picture is neat.

Your grand kids are so cute!
I love what your daughter had to say. She shares wisdom, and pulls you in with the way she writes.

Happy sleeping... and a wonderful day tomorrow!

Peter’s mother had five children from a previous marriage; with Karl she had Klaus, Peter and Renate. Klaus, Renate and Peter at their last visit So glad Renate was able to visit for a few weeks before Peter died.  Karl immigrated to Canada in 1950, settling in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and Martha and the children followed later.

Welcome all BATW visitors !! Debbie does a wonderful job taking us to fascinating places around the world! Thank you so much! So, grab a hot chocolate, or that second cup and enjoy the visit. Here are some facts about the Province of Alberta, part of western Canada, where we've lived for 37 years! Thanks to Doris for this lovely winter scene! Didn't have my own! It's winter here now but we do get the four seasons and they are beautiful. Love this photo - thanks Evi! The days are getting longer and soon we will have spring again!

Alberta had it's centennial celebrations in September '05! We're still quite young! If a 21 year old had ten bucks to his name in 1905 he could buy 64 hectares - over 150 acres. Of course it had stipulations, but wouldn't that be fantastic nowadays. I'd even pay $1000.00, oh ...
