Memorials

My family has fought in more than one more war. It's not something though the men who did spoke much about. These past World Wars, when I think about them, I think to myself, how much do we know about the real reasons behind them? How much don't we know? I should read through the histories a little more perhaps, and try to sift through to find original sources rather than commentaries. But there's there's a lot to do in this life, don't know how much time I have for it. But there's an earlier war I might read a book on soon, as I'm thinking of getting it as a gift. But that goes back a bit to the Civil War. I'll see. Remembering my grandfather and great grandfather. I shall have to go and walk to the graveyard before too much longer, God willing. It's not far to go to see.

Cottontail Rabbit

There's quite a family here, so there should be more pictures in future. Here's a starter. Fishie is still here though on medication, it's hard to say whether he will make it or not. I am renovating, adding on to the counter in the kitchen for more space to work in. The Lord is gracious.

Happy Mother's Day

It has been a Mother's Day of ups and downs. I sent an e-card ahead of a regular card to my mother, as she has come down with strep throat and so our visit to celebrate together has been called off for a few weeks. She is on a second antibiotic now, and hopefully it will be enough, as she has had antibiotic resistant strep previously, it may not be though. I took this beautiful photo a few days ago, and saved it to make into an e-card. She sounds a little down but is happy for the card, and not too down as she is an energetic person. Wishing a Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there.
