Howdy,

I'm very tired but I couldn't let a day go by with out sending you a message. The Littles and I went to Shirleys today, along with Fritz and Sadie. Emma is pregnant, and not just a little pregnant, alot of pregnant. We didn't really see her show signs of being in heat, last week Shirley and I were driving down the driveway and I slowed down like I always do and I'm like "Emma's fat" today she was really alot bigger. So we are not sure how far along she is, but it could be anyday by the looks of her. Hopefully Dutch is the daddy. It looks like Fritz got one of the beagle girls. Shirley doesn't know what to do with them, they were supposed to be puggles, They look like poogles. They are 2 1/2 weeks old and are solid with large white splashes on their chest. I told her to wait for their hair to grow and see if it keeps growing and starts to curl.

We started putting the osb sheeting on the trailers roof today, we got more than half done. Shirley special ordered the metal for it and that's suppose to come in later next week. Some places are pretty soft and we built up the area over Shirleys bedroom that dips down. I talked to Mike today for a very short time and he said that he's okay and asked how the boys are doing. I don't know where he is right now or anything. Somewhere in the middle I guess. Well I better get some sleep so I can get up early tomorrow and go back to Shirley's.

Love you very much, Mom xoxoxox
