Baby Bear

Cousin Fun - the Sleeping Tent - BEFORE one of the stools feel over and gave Mara a scratch and "blackish" eye! Lots of love from the kiddos to Bapo!
Where Dad's new "house" will be!
Dad's current living location. We LOVE having him here with us! Always SOMETHING going on with 3 kiddos and the neighborhood dogs - not quite Arizona or Colorado!

Yep, that would be me. You know our family and if not is made up of: Mama Bear (watching from above), Papa Bear, Big Sister Bear and Baby Bear. Well, Papa Bear is comfortably resting back in a hospital bed with some thanks to some great pain meds. And ... it is good that they got the pain (at least mostly) under control for now, because they were about to learn that just like a Mama Bear protects her cubs - so a Baby Bear will do about anything it takes to bring comfort to Papa Bear. Augh - seeing Dad in pain isn't any fun and he is so tough that he graciously "grins and bears" it. He is back visiting the hospital for some pain relief, diabetic control and to hopefully get some questions answered.

I am going to be keeping the blog more up-to-date. It is easiest to keep you all in the loop and share pictures and such - especially Dad's friends whose emails I don't have ... and I KNOW you are out there!

In addition to health updates and such I will document Dad's new "house" that is going to be started soon, hopefully. He is putting up a building on our property that he will be able to drive his rig in and have all the comforts of home with an additional room in the back for lounging and company.

I am sure Papa Bear would love to hear from you, so either leave a note here or drop him an email. If you want a snail mail address - comment here too and I will send you our home address.

Thanks for all your thoughts, prayers and well wishes.
