Remember the 1st time you held your newborn child and all your parenting love and instinct came rushing forth like a tidal wave. Your heart was bursting and you knew that you you would do anything for your child. Here are some parent newborn pictures that will bring tears to your eyes looking at love at 1st sight captured on film!

Father and son!

Notice the close family resemblance in each photo? Nothing is as strong as the bond between parent and child!!!

Your Desert Rose!

A COWGIRL DOG AND HER BABY!

Our 5 month old granddaughter, The Rosa Jewel and her Cowgirl dog, Laya are becoming fast friends! Notice how Laya thinks she has herded The Rosa Jewel to the blanket??? Can't wait till the Rosa Jewel starts to walk...!!!

Your Desert Rose!

"The Hell Bitch"!!!

If you are reading this blog...you must surely know the movie, LONESOME DOVE! It is in my top 3 favorite movies, my number one western. If you read my side bar you will see that under cowboys with class I briefly chatted with Bobby Duval a year or so ago. I use sayings from the movie quite frequently and do believe that it is the most true to life in it's time period ever made.

One of my favorite "characters" in this movie was the white unbroken mare that Capt' Call was going to break for himself! Ha....she just about broke him! So when here in the desert another "character" was acting viciously...I gave her this name from LONESOME DOVE with much affection!

So...look closely in the cab of the truck! Do you see a cute little cowdog in there??? Auntie Rose is goning to go say hi to this cowdog and give her a scratch behind the ear!

This little cowdog will be soooo happy to see her Auntie Rose!

Now this little cowdog has known The Desert Rose for at least 5 years now!

She greets me the same every time!

Here you can see her true affection for me!

Here she is with her dad "Spanky" who she LOVES! She rides around the stables all day next to him the golf cart checking out all the action going on!

Hay...Hell Bitch...you are on my front porch!!! And then...this is what happens when you go to the office to pay your monthly board!

Kinda makes you want to tell them....to go get a dog that fucking (25 cents in the cuss jar!) likes you!!!

There is only one time that the "Hell Bitch" will ever let anyone near her, and that is in the golf cart if she is in the middle! See my hands on her??? Once she even layed her head on my knee. Yes, my heart melted and I thought she finally liked me!!!

So now that you can see how sweet the "Hell Bitch" is in the golf cart...take a look at this!

As you can see, as soon as I dismount the golf cart...I am again, A wicked witch!

So as hard as I have tried to make friends with the " Hell Bitch", she will have no part of it!

Yes...it does hurt my feelings. I am after all... known as the cookie lady by all the horses here and the " Hell Bitch" would certainly benefit from my friendship. Spanky says she is just scared! However as a "Bitch" myself, I think she is just protecting her man!

The Desert Rose and Spanky make nice for the camera at the barn party!

Your Desert Rose!
