Mountain trip
Hi...spent yesterday at Mount Rainier National Park...I found snow to play in! My "girls" loved it...we also had a picnic at Narada Falls and a short hike at Longmire....great day! Will try to post pic...JJ
Hi Jill,
What a great photo! It looks as if your "girls" are already quite fond of you. Do they get along well together? What have you learned from them so far? I can imagine how much fun they must have had in the snow!
Love,
Polly

Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.
Hi...today it will be in the low 90s! Too hot for this girl. The kids are at school...I have this week off....cleaned the kitchen...did ironing.....I really needed a break, so the fact that my classes were canceled this week is a real blessing.
The girls are wonderful...It is easy to like them! For some reason...the three if us have bonded very quickly...The two girls get along well too. I have learned what they like to eat....as long as I keep making stir fry veggies and rice with the meat dishes I will be a popular host mom. I learned that kids drink a ton of milk and juice and it seems like I am running to the store every other day, at least! Luckily, they like English muffins for breakfast an sometimes hard boiled eggs. I am only responsible for cooking their dinner, but make sure they have lunch meat, fruit, snacks, etc. I keep Crystal Lite int he fridge and also usually have a jug of ice tea in there too. They like Ramen and Cup of Noodles too/ Saori loves mac and cheese and wanted to make a macaroni sandwich the other day...I kept my mouth shut...she decided not to take it....Whew! She doesn't like salad or fresh veggies and is over weight. ...like me! I will gradually learn to cook what they like, but try to keep it healthy as well. I am about to embark on a diet again..I have gained too much weight while I have been stressed about my situation.
