What a nice change in the weather!!  It is so hard to be inside.  It seems like winter has been here forever. 

Angela has hit another stepping stone.  She is riding her tricycle all by herself.  She is so proud and bugs us to go riding everyday.  We are going to have to get her a new bike because she is so tall that her poor knees have bruses from hitting the handle bars.  Aunt Pooh bought a new pool so I know she will look forward to swimming this summer.  She was on their tramp jumping when I arrived to pick her up tonight.  I know we are all tired of being stuck in the house.

Angela and Daddy played hooky last Friday and she was not happy about not going to school.  I have a feeling that when school is out, she is going to be bugging us about not going to school.  She really loves school and is doing very well.  She is the youngest in her class, but seems to be keeping up with the other kids.  She is becoming more independent each day.  She is getting herself dressed with little help from us and wants to do more  and more things by herself.  We are so proud of her.

Mommy's new job is going well.  I really like it and I like the people I work with.  They seem like a great group of people.  Michael, the owner will be in town next week, so I will get to meet him for the first time.  I have only talked with him once, so I am looking forward to meeting him.  Mark is a very down to earth and I feel that he and I will work well together.  Vicente is one of the sales reps and he is a citizen of Chilli, so I have enjoyed getting to know him.  He is young and I enjoy watching him learn, after being in sales for so many years.  I can say i do not miss sales.  Nick, the guy who runs the warehouse is young as well, but very polite and does a great job.  Janice has been with the company for many years and has been a great teacher.  I look forward to learning from her.  Bethany is our accountant and also works for More then Gourmet.  More then Gourmet is owned by Michael's son and is in the other part of our building.  She is a swwwt person and has been helpful as well.  Dana is our sevice/engineer person.  He is older and reminds me of the 70's.  He also is a great person.  I have about 4 weeks left with the temp service and then I will start on their payroll.  I am so excited.

The need to buy a second car has come with my new job because it is in Akron, so we know own a 04 Jeep Liberty 4x4.  it is red with crome.  I love it.  I also realized today that we bought the PT almost two years ago.  It still feels like just yesterday.  It has grown on me and has become my car.  it will be better on the gas going to Akron everyday, but I do drive the Jeep on the weekends.  I really like it.

Daddy has been going to school to improve his photograpy skills and is hoping to start doing that on the side.  He has always taken great pictures, so I know he will do well.  I am really proud of him but I have to say i do miss him in the evenings after Angela goes to bed.

Well I think it is time to close this posting for now.  Thank you for stopping in and visiting.  Please post ibn the guestbook so Angela will see it is the future.

I can't believe it is March already.  Alot has has happened since Christmas.  Daddy and I have been together for 12 years and married for nine wonderful years.  It still seems like yesterday. 

Mommy lost her job, but was only out of work for less then 30 days.  It has been hard to get use to the new schedule.  I am working in Akron now, so I have a 30 minute drive one way.   I am so glad to be working again, but I miss so much.  I miss taking her to school in the morning, driving to work with Dadday, having lunch with Daddy and just being able to talk to Daddy throughout the day.  The good thing is that I am doing a new kind of work.  I am an assistant to the VP of sales for a company that sells tire molds and parts internationally.  It will be great experence for me and it is has been interesting learning something new. 

Angela is doing very well in pre-school.  She seems to love it and is learning so much.  She has learned severl songs and I love to listen to her sing them.  She is counting better and has learned the difference between big and little, tall and short, her colors.  She can hold up three fingers and say that is how old she is.  She is telling us when she has to go to the bathroom and most of the time will go by herself.  We are so proud of her.  She makes us laugh.  She is so smart.  We have our 2nd parent-teacher conferences the 11th.  I am looking forward to seeing how much she has learned. 

Daddy has gone back to school for photography.  He was a photo journalist is the Navy and has always taken great picture.  I am really proud of him and I am so glad he is pursuing his photograpy.  He has taken several really great pictures of Angela and they will be wonderful to look back on in the future.

This is a new year and we are going under several changes and I hope that it will hold a great year for us.  Charge is a scarry thing, but I beleive that when one door closes, a better door is open.  I miss my old job and I wish I was still there, but I will make this new job work for all of us. 

I promise to update again soon.   Thank you all for being patient with me and staying up with us.
