I'm feeling a little nostalgic this morning... thought I share something special to me with you...this 1st photo was taken with me and my 3 week old daughter, she weighed 8 lbs 5 oz at birth...taken at my parents house in Sept. of 1971 with a Polaroid camera.
then after 2 miscarriages during several years, God blessed us one more time, with a 9 lb 14 oz son... this photo was taken at a baseball game by a professional photographer, that was there to take photos for the local newspaper, I had no idea that it had been taken until he presented me with it...my son was about 3 months old at the time, May 1978.
Good Morning Sis. Pam 47 and rain. Tax day today. Nice to see the youg girl loving the turtle. I am sure Post Offices everywhere will be very busy today with people rusing to get there taxes post marked before the deadline. Have a great day and take Care. Bro. Doc
Good Wednesday morning! Rain or Shine it is a beautiful day!
This picture of Livvy, next door neighbor, loving a Giant Turtle brought back memories to me.
Growing up, we had turtles in our backyard. We would find them on the side of the road going to and from the 500 acre Ranch we had in South Texas. We would number them with fingernail polish and be careful when mowing.
Our granddaughters have raised these turtles from little ones in an aquarium.
Wayne made their first home in a metal water trough with a spraying fountain.
They are in a rubber stock tank home now as they have grown.
God's creatures are all so different and amazing. What pets did you have growing up? Blessings & Hugs! Pam
Life is a lot like jazz… It's more beautiful when you improvise… ♫Hello♫ May this Wednesday be as sweet as a hug… Sparkling like a burst of laughter. Enjoy the simple little things that life offers you. Have a wonderful day. Kisses and hugs.
Good Morning Pam. reminds me the snapping turtle I can into at the pond when I lived on all the acres up north, Good thing I didn't get close to it. LOL
What luck to be able to get close to these turtles at home!....
I had a Florida turtle for my daughter, unfortunately it did not survive long in a small aquarium... they are not happy I believe, I prefer them in freedom just like all animals...
