Sitting on the couch with Mommy2


I have been absent for a while because I took Her Highness to a major medical center a few states away for foot surgery. She is recovering at home, commanding her subjects with her usual felicity. I am exhausted and still recovering from the trip.

Today I had an opportunity to catch a ride with Lost In Space to Mommy2's house. She took me on her errands, then let me nap on her couch for a couple of hours. After that I have had the blessing of fellowshipping with her family, including Lost In A Dream, my future daughter in law. Right now we are all snuggled in on the couch surfing the web, answering my e-mails and now posting to the bloglet.

I know something on Mommy2 that I am going to blackmail her with (or is it blackblog, in this case?) Right now I am being Her Highness and Mommy2 is making my tea! What a friend. We had a little fun earlier planning a trip (Mommys only). We can't decide whether to take the Alaska Marine Highway to Southeast Alaska to show her my old haunts, or to go talk my mom, Great Grannie, into coming to my house for a long visit. Actually neither of us has any money nor do we have child care, but it is fun to dream.

Lost In A Dream and Techno Guy cooked supper while I was napping and we enjoyed a meal of pasta and deer steak. It is really nice to feel so much at home with my friend and to all be part of the family of God. Our fellowship is sweet, our friendship enduring and our life in Christ, eternal! Woohoo! What a life.

Mommy2 introduction

I am Mommy2 and I am sooooo glad that my dear friend Mommy1 has decided to join this adventure in blogland. Unlike me, she is a born writer and has many,many adventures to share...as you can see we have some common ground...a wedding in our future....

Mommy 1 Intro

I have come into blogland kicking and screaming. Mommy 2 has always wanted to do this and finally I decided to play. Here goes. I am Mommy 1, mother of 8 in descending order of age. Big Army Man 26, Lanky guy, 23, Another son, Lost-in-space,19, 16 year old son, Mr. Peabody, 15 year old son, Mr. Inquisitive, 14 year old daughter, Shineylocks, 8 year old son, Speed and 5 year old daughter, Her Highness.

I am married to Sir Dashing, the handsome patriarch of this clan. Together, from the Rocky Mountains, we are guiding the 6 youngest of the clan into their "Big" lives while watching from a distance as Big Army Man and Lanky guy and their beautiful wives produce the cutest grandchildren ever born.

Stick around and when I get over this performance anxiety, I will write more of the exciting escapades of the McFamily.

P.S. Lost-in-space has recently given an engagement ring to Mommy 2's number 4 daughter, Lost-in-a-dream!

This is the beginning for us...


We are 2 Moms of a Feather.

This is our adventure together...so sit back with us.
Have a cup of coffee or tea, maybe a biscuit or cookie or 2.
