There are a lot of words in this search - what is the first word you see?
From Angela West Virginia's Treasures.
Shirley and Marcy
A mother was concerned about her kindergarten son walking to school. He didn't want his mother to walk with him. She wanted to give him the feeling that he had some independence but yet know that he was safe.
So she had an idea of how to handle it. She asked a neighbor if she would please follow him to school in the mornings, staying at a distance, so he probably wouldn't notice her. She said that since she was up early with her toddler anyway, it would be a good way for them to get some exercise as well, so she agreed.
The next school day, the neighbor and her little girl set out following behind Timmy as he walked to school with another neighbor girl he knew. She did this for the whole week.
As the two kids walked and chatted, kicking stones and twigs, Timmy 's little friend noticed the same lady was following them as she seemed to do every day all week. Finally she said to Timmy, 'Have you noticed that lady following us to school all week? Do you know her?'
Timmy nonchalantly replied, 'Yeah, I know who she is.'
The little girl said, 'Well, who is she?'
'That's just Shirley Goodnest, ' Timmy replied, 'and her daughter Marcy.'
'Shirley Goodnest? Who is she and why is she following us?'
'Well,' Timmy explained, 'every night my Mum makes me say the 23rd Psalm with my prayers, 'cuz she worries about me so much. And in the Psalm, it says, ' Shirley Goodnest and Marcy shall follow me all the days of my life', so I guess I'll just have to get used to it!'
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you, and be gracious unto you; the Lord lift His countenance upon you, and give you peace.
May Shirley Goodnest and Marcy be with you today and always
Thank you Jerry at Asthecrackerheadcrumbles.

A man was dining in a fancy restaurant and there was a gorgeous redhead sitting at the next table..He had been checking
her out since he sat down, but lacked the nerve to talk with her.
Suddenly she sneezed, and her glass eye came flying out of its socket towards the man. He reflexively reached out, grabbed it out of the air, and handed it back.
'Oh my, I am so sorry,' the woman said, as she popped her eye back in place. 'Let me buy your dinner to make it up to you.'
They enjoyed a wonderful dinner together, and afterwards they went to the theatre followed by drinks... They talked, they laughed, she shared her deepest dreams and he shared his. She listened to him with interest.
After paying for everything, she asked him if he would like to come to her place for a nightcap and stay for breakfast. They had a wonderful, wonderful time.
The next morning, she cooked a gourmet meal with all the trimmings. The guy was amazed. Everything had been so incredible!
'You know,' he said, 'you are the perfect woman.. Are you this nice to every guy you meet?'
'No,' she replies. . .....
Wait for it ..... ......
It's coming ...... ......
The suspense is killing you, isn't it?
She said .... ......:
'You just happened to catch my eye.'
Thank you Fran
Thank you Kelly
Childbirth at 65
With all the new technology regarding fertility recently, a 65-year-old friend of mine was able to give birth.
When she was discharged from the hospital and went home, I went to visit.
'May I see the new baby?' I asked
'Not yet,' She said 'I'll make coffee, and we can visit for a while first.'
Thirty minutes had passed, and I asked, 'May I see the new baby now?'
'No, not yet,' She said.
After another few minutes had elapsed,
I asked again, 'May I see the baby now?'
'No, not yet,' replied my friend.
Growing very impatient, I asked, 'Well, when can I see the baby?'
'WHEN HE CRIES!' she told me.
'WHEN HE CRIES?' I demanded.
'Why do I have to wait until he CRIES?'
'BECAUSE I FORGOT WHERE I PUT HIM,O. K.?'

It was hard for me to convince my son that he needed me to walk with him to the bus stop in first grade. KG was not too bad as the bus came to our house. I like the eye story too. I also like the toilet roll lesson. Thanks for sharing:)
Your daughter looks a lot younger for her age.
some cute jokes. i saw 'family' first.
Love those stories--especially the Shirley Goodnest ones. I'll have to try to remember them to share at home!
I saw the word LOVE first. Don't know how I missed family as most of the others saw that first. Happy birthday to your daughter. Hope you all have a fun time celebrating with her. Happy Friday!
Forgot where I put him.... ha, ha, ha, ha... I love that squirrel, too. They are about that cheeky.

Happy Birthday to your daughter! She got an early present with her son's confirmation, didn't she? I love the story about the little boy walking to school - I hope Shirley Goodnest and Marcy follow me around like that. Ann
Happy birthday to your daughter !!! Happy weekend to you !
I saw the word love first. These were so funny today. My favourites were the one about catching her eye, the one about the little boy and the one about forgotten baby!
As always you get a laugh out of me and that's not easy today. I love Shirley Goodnest and Marcy, but the 65 year old mama cracked me uo!
I love your last quote on your blog.

I spotted love first....
The little squirrel is so cute. I know they're a nuisance, but I still love to watch their silly antics.
We both have grandsons going through confirmation..... a special time for all!
Congratulations to your grandson confirmation...a special time for him. And happy Birthday to your daughter. Odd how the kids grow older and we don't :)I got a big chuckle over the tooth brush and toilet paper joke. I also got a chuckle over the old woman losing the baby...I am sure that could have happened to me LOL

Nice Friday post, Sandie. I can identify with a lot of it.
We had a Walmart Cadillac, a Walmart Mercedes, a Walmart BMW, and several other Walmart cars. Most of them had duct tape to keep the rain out and the wind from blowing in.
Oh yes, I saw "LOVE" first.
..
Liked this:)
that squirrel is so cute. The first word I saw was courage.
Happy Birthday to your daughter
A rite of passage - confirmation into the church. And love the Shirley Goodnest and Marcy story. :)
