Are you sure she's not MY kid???? I do that too :lol:


sometimes its better to be lucky than good. Lemon jr. has always been lucky when it comes to money, so much so we call him the money magnet.

Dad goes into a bank to ask for halves and strikes out, but Lemon Jr. gets a free cookie and finds $20 on the floor by the table where they have free coffee for their customers! (this was about as far from the teller windows as you can get but still be in the bank).

1/28 Today Franklin had a new person at the CU open up the counter. At first she said that there was no junk cup in the counter. So we told here that the GM of the CU opened it for Franklin last week.So she had to have Franklin tell were they the keys were and how to open it up. Some times it can be hard as in Franklin's mind once is always.

I think they may be called dragon tears. My mom uses different colors of them in her fish tank.

I just noticed these. Ya know, you may want to hold onto those Kenya coins; you may have to give them to Zero, in case he gets deported. He'll need all the help he can get :lol:
