Chinaberry........they're not native to this area, but they sure do like it. Kind of like me.

Our leaves are already fallinggggggg.

Yes, Kim I know what your leaves are doing right now. I also know that in the ditches in front of your house there are rose-hips. I wish I were there to pick some. And drink coffee with cream.

FAVORITE: most liked, preferred above all others Sara, you were my favorite.  You were our first baby and we were so excited for you.  Your hair was perfect for me to learn how to braid and you always were very still for me.  You were the first little girl I got to dress up and put lacy socks on.  You were such a fun little girl to read to.  You memorized the books we had and it was a big part of our day to read with each other.  *where is the bear when the wind blows cold?*.    You have alw...
