A Firefighters Little Girl
(author unknown)
I am very dedicated to my work. I wear firefighter shirts every day, even when I'm not on duty. The fire department is my second home, and my second family. It often seems as if my life revolves around the fire department, but it means nothing compared to my little girl. I am normally a very friendly person, but if you hurt my little girl you will make me mad. I know my little girl is growing up, even if I don't like it. She seems to like you, so Ill tolerate you dating her, but here are a few things for you to think about while you're with her:
First of all, I go into burning buildings to save people that I've never even seen before, you can't imagine how protective I am of my little girl.
I once broke a mans sternum by accident while doing CPR to save his life. If that's how I help people what do you think I do when I'm pissed off?
I investigate arson fires. I know exactly what clues to look for to prove it was arson so I also know how to make sure nobody can tell how a fire started... and I know where you live. Remember Backdraft?
I've worked more car accidents than you'll ever see, the sight of blood doesn't bother me one little bit.
Its normal for me to carry chainsaws, axes, and various other extremely sharp tools in my car..touch my little girl and me and you take a little ride.
When we burn down a house for training, nobody ever looks in the closets.
I use the jaws of life to tear doors off wrecked cars. They cut though solid metal like a hot knife through butter. So watch your paws or get the jaws.
Sirens and air horns can really muffle the sounds of someone screaming.
Most of my friends are cops, paramedics, or firefighters. WE ARE 911. If you make me mad who do you think you're going to call for help?
I have access to explosives.
I am well trained in emergency medicine. I know exactly which arteries are the easiest to sever and which ones bleed the most. (remember all the sharp tools?)
Even though my little girl insists that you are a nice guy and not like most other guys, I know better. I was once your age, I know EXACTLY what you're thinking. Because of that I already have plenty of reasons to not like you.
It wouldn't take much at all to push me over the edge, and I just sharpened my axe.
So if you want to date my little girl you better keep these things in mind.
Fireman are protective by nature, and there is nothing we are more protective of than our little girls. Whenever you're alone with her, you better remember that someday you may be alone with me!

Breakfast with Daddy

Introducing Ruairidh
(that's Rory to all of us who don't speak Gaelic)
Ama & Papa's new baby boy. He's a Cairns Terrier and a heck of a lot smaller than our girls!
Welcome to family Rory!
Ama's Boots
Grace was lucky enough to spend part of her sick day with Ama & Papa so Daddy could go to a meeting. Looks like they didn't have any fun at all ;)
Thanks Ama & Papa!! (and Rory too)
Daddy's Boots
Grace has always had a shoe fetish.
And by the way, this is a perfect example of why I want to cut her hair....she looks TEN not two!
Sick Days are F-U-N fun!
Against Mommy's better judgement, Daddy whips out the big guns to keep the sicky happy! Who is going to explain to her that "No, you can't keep the tent in the family room forever"?
She's so funny though. She peaks her head out of the tent and says "Hellllll-oooooooooooooooo". Daddy taught her that, too!

Too much partying???
Grace had a wonderful time at her postponed Valentine's day party, unfortunately, she stayed home sick today. Mark put on her favorite movie (Nemo) and here she sits...
Poor GiGi
Valentines Day Party
Well, since we were snowed in on Valentine's Day, Grace and I had our own party at home. Hope you had a sweet day, too!
Valentines Blizzard 2007
If you haven't heard...we had a blizzard! It was SO pretty. I will try to get a good picture of what that snow pile on the right looks like now and post another time.
Daddy is OUR Valentine
What lucky girls we are! Mark bought us both roses and cooked a yummy dinner for our Valentine's Eve surprise. (note: that is sparkling grape juice - not wine) ;)

Wash the Kitchen Floor! Wash the Kitchen Floor!
Tia Sarah, I SWEAR we don't MAKE her do this! She actually cries when you take away the "Sweep Sweep"!!!
But hey, we need all the help we can get!
How Quickly They Learn
I guess after she has seen us do it a million times, I shouldn't be suprised but WOW! We let the dogs in, she runs over grabs the doggie towels and wipes their paws! Amazing Grace.
