How many years is enough for you to say that life is complete and you can go? The average life expectancy of a male in our country is 67 while 70 for female. Do you also think that going beyond that gives you more in life - sort...

goowter I'd be fine with 65. If I have already served my purpose, though, I would be much happier to go meet Jesus. If it is anything like that song /I can only imagine/ by mercy me, I'd be there in a heart beat.

I don't really see this as a problem or a deficiency, but sometimes it sounds like it would be nice. It would be nice when the world gets real heavy and bears down on you like it's nobody's business. My wife always says she "feels...

I simply can't believe how crazy it is this week. I have lived in Iowa for 34 years and don't remember seeing this kind of a mess for quite some time. We had a major ice storm last weekend that knocked out the power for hundreds...

goowter I hear ya. I'm in West Des Moines and I don't remember the winter being this bad last year. There have been several times, when the temperature didn't get into double digits for a couple weeks, that I just wanted to pack the family up and move somewhere where...

goowter If you really want to *earn* $500 a month there are lots of things you can do. You could start a web site that sells things. If you are knowledgeable in a specific area you can start a blog and make money off of advertising. The list is potentially endless....

goowter I like the idea of a food chart. Simple, but sounds very useful. That way my wife and I can stop asking each other, "Wait, what did we give her for lunch yesterday?" Thanks for the input.

goowter Good point about the grazing. My wife and I talked about it and we thought that maybe we are being silly to make her eat three meals at the table. If she is going to be so active we should just let her eat as she goes.

goowter We haven't tried slipping avocado on her, but that sounds like a good idea. We have tried slipping her stuff when she eats stuff she likes. It's really funny because she gives us a confused look like, "that bite was a little different." Man, she makes me...

goowter Thanks for the list, a lot of good stuff there. We do try to give her most anything we eat, but she is really behind on the teeth thing. She didn't have any teeth until she was 12 mo. and now she only has three on the bottom and four on top. Darned if they...

goowter That is very creative. I am glad to hear she is doing well. I have also noticed that it is easier to feed her while she is distracted, like watching a movie. However, I don't want to instill a bad habit of eating in front of the tv.

goowter Hang in there ruby. From what I have heard on this discussion, as long as they are drinking (milk and juice) that they are probably fine. The only time to worry is if they are lethargic or lifeless. If that is the case, then you need to take him to the doctor....
