February days are now gone and March has officially kicked in. I finally purchased a new monthly focus board. We ventured out for a day date which included a movie. I love our day dates. I will give my honest review about the movie for those interested. I wanted to see this movie as it was based on a true story. I did enjoy the movie but oh my, it was a tear jerker from the get go! It ended good but mercy! Let's just say that I am thankful that no one was sitting close enough to see my tear stained face.

The Birthday girl...Middle Daughter Melissa.(Melissa Kay Conner Jackson) Born on July 9th, 1984 at 7:15 a.m. Weighed 7lbs 5 oz with a head full of black hair. I am talking she had so much hair that Velcro hair bows was not needed. We went right on to using the ones that snapped! She was born 7 minutes after I arrived at the hospital! One thing I could do was BIRTH in a hurry!
She and my soninlove Brad just celebrated their 7th wedding anniversary. They celebrated with a weekend trip to St. Augustine Fla.
Their two beautiful little girls and my granddaughters.
