JESSI DUKE

Stinky feet

National Prayer Remembering 9-11-2001 Lord, we come to You on bended knee, heads bowed and our hearts filled to overflowing with so much grief for the many people who have been injured and killed in our National crises. We ask you, Lord, to give courage and strength to those who so bravely go to their aid. And though our hearts will be heavy and filled with sorrow we ask, Lord, that You give them the endurance needed to help them through this difficult task. Please give us the strength, Lord, to get through each difficult and devastating day that faces each of us and our country. Protect and guide our Military that are now being called to duty. We ask, Lord, that You guide the leaders of our great country in their hour of decision. The burden that has been placed on their shoulders during this crisis is overwhelming. We ask that with Your infinite wisdom You guide them gently to the right decisions. And lastly, Lord, we ask that You allow us all to come together as a Nation, to stand tall and united, so that we might help each other in our hour of need. Amen ~ author unknown ~ May God Bless America!

JJ had never seen such a sight. Daisy was running after them her hair was a flying and she was waving the fry pan and yelling "Get back. Once I get my hands on both of you. Your both gonna wish you hadn't been born." said Daisy as chased them back into the house. JJ just sat there a laugh until Jesse gave her a look. Jesse got out of truck and followed them into the house. "What is going on?" he asked looking at the three of them.

JJ was glad it's wasn't her that had her Uncle upset. "Will it be safe to go home?" asked JJ. "It better be." said her uncle. They both knew how Bo and Lori got when they were upset. "Let's just hope the farms still standing." replied Jesse.

"Are things ok with you two?" asked Jesse. "Yeah." said JJ as she watched out the window. "Uncle Jesse can we see Luke later?" asked JJ.

JJ waited in front of the school for Jesse to pick her up. It was long day and she just wanted to go home. "JJ please talk to me?" asked Matt as he came up beside her. "Why? You knew that I was suppose to be home at midnight."said JJ as Jesse finally pulled up to the school. "Come on JJ" said Matt. "Hi Uncle Jesse." said JJ as she got into his truck and shut the door. "JJ" said Matt one more time. "Can we go Uncle Jesse? I'll talk to you later Matt." said JJ. "Fine whatever JJ." said Matt as he turned and left.

"Bo, I want you to quit the childish games you and Lori are playing. One more time and the keys to the General are mine." Jesse told him before he turned around went into the house.

Happy Birthday Tom!!! I hope you had a very happy birthday with your family and friends. Happy Birthday Cuz!!!

Jesse had enough of them fighting. "Loren Crystal Davenport get in the house NOW. Go take a shower." Jesse told her.

Daisy also came running to the door. Stopped dead in her tracks and started laughing. Lori was a site to see. Jesse tried to keep from laugh too, but it was hard not to laugh. m "All right you two. I said I wanted this tractor fixed by lunch time." Jesse reminded them.

Jesse walked into the old farm house. Walking over to coffee pot and pour himself a cup coffee. Let it cool for few seconds before taking a sip. Just as he set it down he heard "Dang it Lori." Jesse got up and went to the door to see what was happen.

"Bo" said Jesse letting the young man know that he wasn't out of the area yet.

Jesse looked at tractor then at Bo the then at Lori. He wasn't sure what he was going to do with both of them. "Beauregard Jackson Duke! What where you think? I want this tractor fixed. And If it's not before lunch you can forget about going to see Luke or the Boar's Nest later. And you Loren Crystal Davenport are going to help and if you don't. You won't be seeing Luke tonight either." said Jesse in a tone that let them both know there would be no room for argument.

Jesse wasn't sure what to think. He didn't know if he should laugh or... "What's going? Who did it?" asked Jesse as he got of the truck and went to where Bo and Lori was standing.

Jesse pulled up to the school "I'll be here to pick up after school." said Jesse as he stopped in front of the door. "Yes sir." said JJ as she got out of the truck. "Bye Uncle Jesse." she said as she shut the door. Jesse watched as she went into the school before heading back towards the farm.

JJ watched as her uncle got in the truck. "Uncle Jesse, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to worry you last night." whispered JJ. Jesse looked over at her "I know JJ." he said as pulled up out of the yard on to the road.

JJ stopped looked at Jesse then Lori thought for a second and said "I guess you Uncle Jesse. I'll go wait in the truck for you." then walked out the door and towards the truck.

JJ laughed as Bo fell out bed. He shot her a look before she left his room. She went over to the table and grab her books as she walked into the kitchen. "Uncle Jesse are you going to drive to school or is Bo?" asked JJ.

"I mean it Bo. Get up" said JJ as she started tickling him.

I'll give it try.

"No, Uncle Jesse said to get up." said JJ as she took his pillow away from him too.

"Ok. Uncle Jesse." said JJ as walked over to were Lori was. "Hey sleepy head! It's time to get up." said JJ as shook Lori's arm. JJ waited until she saw Lori's eyes open before she left to wake up Bo. Knocking on Bo's door as she openned his door. "Hey Bo! It's time to get up. Lazy Bone's." said JJ as she stole his blanket.

JJ got up early to do her choirs. She took her time doing them. She wanted to put off her talk with her uncle for as long as she could. Jesse watched as JJ did her choirs. It was long before he saw she was done and coming towards the house. You would have thought she lost her best friend the way she walked in the house. JJ walked over towards the sink to wash her hands and waited for her uncle to say what he had to say.
