Mom cannot get Walker to stop running with Faith long enough to get a picture but she promised she would try. Maybe, Walker can help us take care of Dad when they both are on the floor. Check back because I am determined mom will get that picture. Brian and Megan are snow camping so we get Walker, Hurray!! Love, Toby
I (Toby) feel so bad because dad hurt his back picking me up. So, I decided to sleep on him at night in case he needs me. You see he is on the floor and so easy to get to.
I do look mighty cute up here if I do say so myself. See Faith sleeping on her big bed and staying close by.
I (Faith) am dad's alarm clock. I woke him up with my special kisses and he loves it because he loves me!
You know I am the guard dog, so I am protecting my dad by sitting on him. Therefore, no one has a chance of getting close to him.
On Sunday afternoon Vern picked up our little dog Toby and turned. The turning was the mistake. He has done something to his lower back at the waist level. Now, he is lying flat on the floor on top of a glacier. He is supposed to stand and walk on flat surfaces or lie down on the floor. It has been hard getting him comfortable---- with something under his knees---with enough blankets. He has pain medication, relaxant medication, has had a massage--that felt good when it was done and had 2 chiropractic treatments which hurt like crazy. I am his driver extraordinaire since it is not good to drive when on pain meds. I hope he feels better soon as this is not much fun for him at all.
Happy Valentine's Day to all in our lives. We will spend our day at work with me watching the 3 year old children who will try to figure out what in the world Valentine's Day is all about. They love the cards they get.
We are so thankful for all that bless our lives, our children and their spouses, all those adopted sons and daughter, nieces and nephews, grandpuppies, and all the distant relatives through Megan's family in Wisconsin. Also, we have the Grube family in Tacoma. We are blessed with friends old and new. I am fortunate to work with 3 wonderful ladies and the rest of the staff at the Lutheran church.
Take care and Happy Valentine's Day! Extra hugs to Walker, Buddie, Fyodor, Toby, Delight, Peaches and Faith our dog family! You make life great for everyone.

Sue is it:
Sweet: That is until I get stubborn but I can tell you for sure no one I know nor anyone in my family thinks I am stubborn. Sweet all the way! Plus you see, my two bio children, Brian and Christy are not stubborn and my husband is not stubborn and our sweet daughter-in-law Megan is not stubborn and our Special son-in-law Randy is not stubborn. None of our adopted sons or daughters or any of our dogs or their dogs or cats are stubborn. We are the Sweet Family!
Under and Up: You usually find me under a table looking for a child or something lost in the preschool room or up above a child trying to figure out what is happening and or what we are doing next. The only problem here is that children are getting taller and I am not. Many children seeming to be stretching toward my height very quickly. So, I guess I will sit down and have fun with the kids and not worry about their height or mine.
Easy: It is so easy to tell me a joke and I just do not get it. It is so easy to tell me something and I will believe it and it is not true. It is so easy for me to go screaming around the house saying. "It is snowing." I so love snow! It is so easy for me to love my two kids and their spouses and the two dogs they have. It is so easy for me to love all the people that have come into our lives because of our own two children. We have so many adopted daughters and sons and soon to have an adopted grand child by Rudy and Anne. It is so easy to look into our world and find so many good things happening in our lives. It is so easy to love kids and dogs and by kids they can be of any age. It is so easy to love the families connected to us through others we know. Our family has grown so much in the last few years with Brian and Christy getting married. It is so easy to care for all the soliders and their families with Randy and Christy being in the Army. Dedra and Ross, you are one of those families. It is so easy to love the children and the families I have had over the past 20 plus years at Our Savior Lutheran Preschool. It is so easy to love those I work with and their families. It is easy to care and love.
Now, it is said I have to tag 3 people so here it goes. I usually do not play these games but it was fun. Thank You Dedra.
I tag Betsy or Jon (whichever one of you wishes to answer this and you are part of the Sweet Family), Jenny because you are part of our Sweet Family and Anne because you and Rudy bless our lives so much.
