Welcome to the Kulig Family Farm

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
We had Cassie's Roman-Catholic Confirmation on Thursday, April 10th, 2008. Along with our parish priest, John Schwartzlose, our Archbishop Joseph Kurtz came and performed the confirmation ritual for the children. We are all very proud of Cassie for going through the classes and taking time from her life to follow through with the whole process. For a young teenager, the process can seem like forever, but Cassie endured it all, and in the end she chose her Saint as Saint Zita. When given the choice of who should sponsor her, there was no question for her that it would be Chip (Leslie's step-brother). Chip came to the services dressed up in his Sunday best, but after all, he is a lawyer, and somehow I doubt he's used to wearing jeans. Chip was a great choice for Cassie, and not only did he promise to say a prayer for Cassie every day, I made him promise to do the same for me, because as we all agreed, I would need it more. :)
The Kulig Family went out to the zoo today. We got to see all the standard animals: The Gorillas, The Zebras, The Lions, The Snow Leapord (with his tail in his mouth constantly. He seemed very proud of that, like FINALLY! I finally got that thing!), and the Giraffe. It was a very sweet giraffe too, and we got to have a really close and private moment with him because there was nobody in there with us at all. He seemed like he really wanted to be petted. He kept getting close to the cage and putting his knee up to it over and over, untill I started petting him. He would lower his head down, inside the cage, and like one of our horses, he would just sit there and enjoy it, and not move at all. Carlee got up on my shoulder and petted him too, but Leslie and Cassie jumped up on a fence in there, and gave him some attention as well. Of course we all didn't know what to expect, but I'm sure everyone of our family members would agree, he reminded us all of one of the horses. I put some pictures out in the Photo Gallery menu item. Cute stuff.
I love watching Leslie play around with the kids. She can be strong when required, but nobody knows her tender side. She had Carlee giggling so much here when she was playing with her just awhile ago. I walked through the bedroom door to catch Leslie sword playing with Carlee (with the Star Wars Jedi sabers). It was so cute, I had to go get the camera. Although, I really didn't get the best of picture on Leslie's behalf, but I think you can get the gist of what was going on with this picture, with Leslie on the floor, and Carlee victoriously on top of her. Leslie is such a sweet mother, and she has gone out of her way to make the girls feel special, and stayed involved in all aspects of their lives. She truly touches their lives so incredibly well, that only when the girls have children of their own will they understand how much it took of their mother to have done that with 4 kids. I really love Leslie, and I recognize how lucky I am to have her.
