Tuesday, 31 March 2009. I can't believe how fast a year went by. How you came as tiny as you were in this photo. How you had a big sister waiting to have you big enough to play. She was waiting to have you big enough to eat! So that she could cook and make mini muffins for you. AND THEN before we know it. You are playing with Sadie, trying words, eating muffins and everything else! Growing curls and running around! Happy Birthday Ava. one year old today. Friday, 20 March 2009.

Monday, 2 November 2009. Forties File Friday - What's in a name? Eternity is in a name. Some cultures believe that as long as someone remembers a name the person is. He has not passed onto the world of the dead until his name has been forgotten. That is why verbal histories are so important to many native cultures. It keeps the ancestors mortal. I am a John and Johnny is a John. I am not sure exactly how many in the line. Am anywhere from the 9. Of First name John. As well as Johnny. His middle name is K...

Friday, 21 August 2009. Forties File Friday - Earliest memory of Home - Haultain? We moved to the house next door at 1230 E Garfield when I was still preschool and lived in that house until I was nearly 14. David and I shared a bedroom which was in the middle of the back of the house. David always got the upper bunk. Access to our room was through the bathroom and the corner bedroom which was alternately Glenn's and then Moms when either of them were there. I remember my little motorized speedboat laying...

Back to school clothes shopping with Nancy and Byrda (Fred Meyer springs to mind! Teasing Nancy ...

Forties Files: Sleeping Beauties
http://fortiesfilegrandma.blogspot.com/2009/12/sleep-post.html
Thursday, 24 December 2009. Dad perfected the art of sleeping in. But he passed on his wisdom. Some try the floor. Most prefer the couch. This couch seemed to be a favourite. A favourite for many. There was no respect for those sleeping. Something about not being able to resist the urge. It's not like they didn't have beds. They even made it close sometimes. My Dad used to say. "Any fool can get up in the morning. It takes the smart . to know when to go to bed at night.". I wish I had listened to my Dad!
