Hunting Season is Upon Me (Oh, no!)
Don’t get between a man (or a boy for that matter) and hunting season. It’s like getting between me and my favorite dessert. (which in case you wanted to know is ice cream) You just don’t mess with me. Boys like their challenges and since this one provides them with lots of fresh air, exercise, the study of nature, stalking skills, marksmanship, butchering skills and lots of fresh organic meat, how can I complain? Seth (16), shot his first antelope last week. A very nice one I am told. If you ever get the opportunity to have some antelope meat, you must! It’s the most tender, mildest game you’ll ever have.

I thought my quiver was full until I read about this family that just had their 17th child! Wowowee. According to Discovery Health the Duggars’s have changed about 90,000 diapers. Hmmm, I wonder if she uses cloth diapers? You’ve got to see the house that they built debt free.

Sounds like a built-in vacation spot. After reading about Mr. and Mrs. Duggar, I feel like my family of 6 kids is rather small. But eleven years solid of pregnancy PLUS nursing… (do you hear me whimpering) <smiles>…
