MAY I SAY GOOD LUCK AND CONGRAD'S
TO ALL MY NEWEST PARENTS AND OF COURSE PARENTS TO BE.
I JUST THOUGHT I WRITE SOME THINGS FOR YOU THAT YOU'LL FIND OUT ON YOUR OWN
I KNOW HOW SCARED YOU MUST BE, AFTER ALL YOU ARE GIVEN THE GREATEST GIFT OF ALL A CHILD! A LITTLE BABY! A PERSON! WHAT A GIFT!

WHAT MAKES A GOOD PARENT?
I really don't know the answer to give you.
I can tell you what happen in my life with 4 daughters,
but I really can't explain how they became grown women.
It is like that song "SUN RISE SUN SET SWIFTLY FLOW THE YEARS!"
Or "YESTERDAY, I WAS YOUNG"

Yes what you are being given is a gift some folks will never know.
you will have to be able to show
the way of love to you child.
Not only when he/she is a little cute baby,
But a teenage rebelling,I hate you kind of kid.
You will still have to love them!
When you ask them to clean their room and they tell you
NO!
You will still forgive and love them!
I still think of my Daughters as my little girls.
(guess I lie to my self to keep young)

Then they grow up after all the doctors, school meetings, food, clothes, dolls, love ect. and go out on their own. You are sad, but very glad you made it this far in the PARENT GAME, but really wonder how you did it and then think back in wonderment at your parents and how they made it thought it with you. God has a funny kind of humor I guess but He does know best I guess.

I WISH YOU ALL THE VERY BEST OF LUCK (you'll need it) Oh one more thing you can't brake the child unless you drop her/him so be careful you don't } WITH ANY LUCK YOU WILL MAKE IT ALL THE WAY TO WHERE I AM A GRANDPARENT X 6

MERRY CHRISTMAS,HAPPY HOLIDAYS,GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR CHILD
BEST WISHES
MAN MOUNTAIN DEAN AND FRIENDS

NOW WHY YOU MAY ASK IS OLD MAN DEAN ON HIS SOAPBOX AGAIN BECAUSE I THINK OF YOU AS MY EXTENDED FAMILY AND I WANT YOU TO BE SAFE AND AWARE OF WHAT IS HAPPENING!

The holidays are here merry Christmas and good Cheer! but there are looking to steal out there too. Looking for those who very foolishly leave their shopping in the seat of their van, truck or car.

HERE ARE SOME TIPS TO KEEP YOU SAFE:

ALWAYS LOCK YOUR CAR!

NEVER LEAVE PRESENTS WHERE ANYONE CAN SEE THEM!

INSTEAD LOCK THEM IN YOUR CAR TRUNK!

NEVER TURN YOUR BACK ON YOUR CHILD,
IT ONLY TAKES SECONDS TO STEAL THEM.

PLEASE DON'T LEAVE YOUR PURSE IN A SHOPPING CART,

INSTEAD KEEP IT ON YOUR SHOULDER,AROUND YOUR WAIST AND NECK WITH ONE HAND ON IT AT ALL TIMES.

ALWAYS HAVE YOUR KEYS READY TO GET IN THE CAR QUICKLY AND LOCK ALL DOORS

RECORD ALL CREDIT CARD NUMBERS IN A SAFE PLACE IN CASE THEY ARE STOLEN
REPORT TO POLICE AND BANK AS SOON AS YOU CAN TO STOP IT FROM BEING USED!

THIS IS A GREAT TIME OF THE YEAR, AND I DO WISH YOU ALL THE JOY AND HAPPINESS BUT YOU MUST BE AWARE OF WHAT IS HAPPENING SO YOU ARE NOT A VICTIM!

GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU SAFE
MERRY CHRISTMAS

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL MY FRIENDS HERE ON THE STREAM
MAY YOUR TABLES BE FILLED WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY AND MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL

YOU KNOW WHEN I WAS A KID WE LOOK FORWARD TO
THE MACY'S THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE WITH ALL THE BALLONS AND BANDS.
AND AT LONG LAST SANTA MADE HIS APPEARANCE AND THE SHOPPING BEGAN AND EVERYONE GOT IN THE "MOOD"
HAVE YOU NOTICE THAT THE STORES HAVE ALREADY HAVE THEIR "TRIM-A-TREE"
DEPT SET UP IN SEPT? I PERSONALY FIND THIS OFFENSIVE.
DID YOU KNOW THAT OUR TOWN, LOUISVILLE KY., HAD IT'S "CHRISTMAS PARADE WITH SANTA" LAST WEEKEND!

I OBJECT TO THE STORES AND THE TV ADS STARTING SO EARLY! IT TAKES THE WHOLE MEANING OF THE HOLIDAYS AND REALLY BURNS ME UP
TO MY JEWISH FRIENDS WHO ARE LOST IN THIS SEASON ANY WAY THE LIGHTING OF THE 8 CANDLES COMES AROUND THE SAME TIME.
THE RINGING OF THE SALVATION ARMY BELLS IS STARTING HERE TODAY!!!!
HAVE THEY FORGOT THE REAL MEANING OF THIS HOLIDAY?

FOR THE CHRISTEN IT IS TO REMEMBER THE BIRTH OF CHRIST THE SAVOR AND THE GIVING OF GIFTS BY THE THREE WISE MEN LAID AT HIS CRIB.THIS IS WHY WE EXCHANGE GIFTS AT CHRISTMAS!

THE MEANING IS LOST WHEN THE TV,STORES ECT BRING OUT THEIR "BIG GUNS" AND FIRE. THE KIDS WILL BUG THE HECK OUT OF MOM AND DAD TO BUY THEM SOMETHING THAT THEY SEE ON THESE ADS AND I JUST FEEL THAT IS WRONG!
I FEEL WE SHOULD GO BACK TO WAITING TILL AFTER THANKSGIVING!

NOW DON'T GET ME WRONG, I LOVE CHRISTMAS AND ALL THE MUSIC AND STUFF THAT GOES WITH IT
BUT I DON'T LIKE WHAT THESE STORES LIKE MACYS, KROGERS, WALMARTS ECT.
HAVE DONE HOW ABOUT YOU? DO YOU AGREE WITH ME?

YOUR COMMENTS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME HERE!

"THE EXAMINATION"

A little boy and girl at school having lunch in the shelter shed.
"Tommy," she said, "I'm not eating any more chicken sandwiches."
"Why?" he asked.
"Cause I'm starting to grow feathers down here," she said, pointing to the bottom of her tummy.
"I don't believe you!" he said. "You'll have to show me."
Behind the shed they went, where the inspection took place.
"Gee, you're right," he said. "I've been eating a lot of chicken, perhaps I'm getting feathers too."
"Well, I'd better have a look," she said.
After a lengthy examination, she looked up and said, "Oh, I think it's too late for you, you've got the neck and giblets too!"

GEE, KIDS ARE SMART!
