Hand raising a Kitten
Before I really get into my story and the do's and don'ts. Please if you see a kitten or find a litter do not take them. Most times Mom is not far off and is just getting some food. It is okay to sit and watch to see if Mom returns, if hours go by or even a day goes by and she has not returned then it okay to get involved. So please make sure there is no chance Mom is around. Also if you do not plan on taking on the responsibilities of raising them find someone who will or has the know how. Most times it's not always best to take them to a shelter. Shelters are over runned and more times than not the reality is they will be put down. It takes a lot of care for small kittens to survive. So remember Mom is best for these little ones!

Camping with a Family
You know how it feels when you go camping and you think you have everything? You made your list, check it twice, and you still forget things. Well I know that feeling, as a Mother of two children and the one that packs everything! It is so annoying to get things out and realize the most important stuff on your list is not there. For example toilet paper for the out house.

The Old Farmhouse
Josie looks to her Mother with a long expression on her face. " Mom why did we have to move from Ladoga? All my friends are there." Josie's Mom just looked straight out the front of the van as she drove. She took a deep breath in and out and replied " Well me and your Daddy didn't have any life insurance and after he died it took almost all our savings to bury him. We just didn't have enough money left to live in our house anymore. I was able to find another house to live in with what we had left. It wasn't easy for me to make this decision, I so wish we could have stayed in our home. I just can't afford it on my own. Just wait we will be happy in no time here, Think of it as a new adventure for all of us." Josie looked out her window as her Mom pulled on a gravel drive at the end of it she saw an old farm house with no paint and looks like it needed a lot of work. All Josie knew she felt homesick.
