Farm Girl Egg

My great-niece Jaden.  I really think she was born to be a farm girl.  Have to laugh though we keep asking her if she laid the egg herself and she would just giggle, roll her eyes and say no.

Happy Birthday America May God Continue to Bless

Question: Could this be your frog prince?

Are you search in of your prince?  Could this be him?  One little smooch and you could break the spell turning him from a frog to a prince.  ** Warning from the croaker general **  Beware the frog prince have a tendency to turn back into a frog once you say I do, but they are CUTE frogs.

What Part of the Fairytale Are You??

You Are the Castle

You are a bit of a homebody and even somewhat of a loner. You function best when you're all by yourself. Other people see you as mysterious and even a little scary. They don't understand how deep and complicated you are. You have many layers to your personality, and there is always a surprise waiting around the corner with you. You aren't as scary as you seem, but you are intense. You require people to confront things about themselves that they rather not know.

Inside Grandmothers Bible

You know you can find treasure in the most unique places.  I have one of my grandmothers bibles and inside the pages are faded and worn a good indication that they have been read and reread.  I also found a newspaper clipping from Ann Landers.  The following is the article:

________________________________________________________________________________

Dear Ann Landers: 

All my married life I've felt like a nobody because I was "only a housewife."  Today I read something that gave me a lift.

The home economics department of our state college published a leaflet in chart form.  It shows what a housewife is worth per week in dollars and cents on today's labor market.  Here it is:

Cooking, table setting, sewing, at $2.00 an hour........$50.00

Dish washing, at $1.25 an hour...................................  17.50

Child Care at $.50 and hour......................................  17.50

Routine housework, $1.25 an hour............................  22.50

Laundry, at $1.25 an hour ........................................    6.25

Ironing, at $1.25 an hour...........................................    6.25

The chart suggests adding 25% for miscellaneous work.  So the grand total is $150 a week.  On yearly basis a housewife is worth $7800.  Tonight when Mr. Greatheart comes home I'm going to greet him like a woman who earns almost $8,000 a year because that's what I am. ~ Ashamed no longer~

Dear Ashamed No Longer,

Housewives of America unite! Clip this column for your husband.
