Lifes Like That

Just recently my daughter met a new friend. This little girl is the same age as my daughter but she is really quite big for her age. If you were just meeting her for the first time you would think that she would be a couple of years older than my daughter. Last week at the bus stop a couple of the other girls that Kara goes to school with were making fun of this girl because of her size. They were saying things like Phentermine, diet pills and that she really needs to join a gym. Well my daughter got really mad and royally told these girls off. Although these girls were friends of Kara’s for quite some time now, now she wants nothing to do with them because they were bullying this other girl. I was quite proud of Kara and am very happy that she stands up for things that she thinks is right.

Although I do get annoyed with her from time to time, I am very happy to say that I think I’m doing something right with this kid.

My father in law stopped in here today to inform us that he finally sold his house. This is great news as he already bought a mini home and if he had not sold his home soon he would have ended up paying two mortgages. As a man on a fixed income the thoughts of having to do this was not very pleasant. Although he did not get the money that he had hoped to for his house he is just very thankful that it did sell. Now after the closing date arrives he can really start to move on his life. We are extremely happy for him and hopefully the remainder of his selling of his home goes smoothly.
