In my post Theodore Roosevelt – Larger Than Life I completely underestimated the complexity of one of the greatest occupants of the American white house.

Sign’s of simple, but hard working times. Produce from simple hard working times, still grown today. A gentlemen said the tobacco grown in northern Tennessee is a type not found anywhere else in the world. It is used for a very niche market; the outer wrapping of high dollar cigars… Another Tennessee Original. Just a…
32 weeks pregnant and slowing…… As these last weeks approach, I have grand nesting plans. The problem is that my grand plans and my physical ability don’t match.

I am continually blessed by this 14 month old baby girl. Her little motherly actions are so adorable—she pats her baby doll on the back, rock the doll cradle and gives big wet slobbery kisses on her baby dolls face.

The other day, I made a trek into town to the grocery store. I took my daughter and left the rest of the children with dad. We had a nice afternoon out. The Autumn leaves are becoming more brilliant each day. We awed at the brilliant hues of reds, oranges and yellows. We collected our…
