At four weeks now,
they're starting to explore the world around them. :-)










Cuteness overload. :-)

3 weeks old


The kittens are three weeks old today.
Their momma was Reeses 
and we think their daddy was a barn cat that my daughter had named Poncho.


So my daughter took those names 
and decided to name the kittens, Leche


Chiclet 



Chupa



and Dulce.

5 years!


Five years ago I sat down and decide to start a little blog. :-)
I've had lots of fun and met many kindred spirits since that day.
I hope to continue sharing simple pleasure with each of you
for many more years to come!
Thank you for visiting Heritage Schoolhouse. :-)

Looking back -



Scenes from an Evening Walk


The kittens are doing well.


They were two weeks old yesterday.



First blossoms on the tomato plants,


and the peppers.


The green beans look good.


The potato plants and onions are starting to wilt and fall over.
I think we'll harvest sometime this week.


I'm still waiting on my herbs outside to emerge,
but the ones in the kitchen indoors have started to sprout.


Dolly and Loretta enjoying  the evening.


Sweet Miss Dolly.


Sunflowers!


Lots of dewberries on the stump in the front yard.






The bluebonnets are starting to go to seed.





Love the wild chamomile! 


And the honeysuckle on our front property line.


Dolly girl.


And the black eyed susans are just starting to appear.
