Some days I still feel like that tired young mother years ago:
First, I stayed up too late. I was stalling because it looked like the dog was in labor. She was pacing, and cramming her swollen body into every odd nook she could find. She usually sleeps under the children’s bunkbeds but doesn’t seem to [...]

Isn’t it amazing how differently men and women see things? Hubby and I ran into the grocery store a couple of last-minute items on Thursday night, and came out with 2 very different views of the experience.
Of course mine is the correct view, but just for fun we agreed to each write up our own [...]

And I had been joking about giving birth onstage as [...]

Today, I just might be biting off more than I can chew. My friend Jenny B. and I are going back to the produce terminal on Friday, but this time we’ll go armed with a list from the rest of the church and a few other friends. If the last trip was exciting, this one [...]

Do you see 2 1/2 years of archives, full to bursting? It’s a site that warms my heart, and it’s all thanks to my Honey who finally made the old database work.
Smart and handsome. I love that guy.

We are on vacation. Yes, that’s why I’ve been so quiet. I was holding out on y’all.Last night, 2yo Rachael woke up at 1 AM and tossed her cookies (actually it was her pizza) on Grandma’s comforter. When Megan brought her to us, our crying, groggy little Redhead had chunks in her [...]

Do you know about Hoops and Yoyo? You’ll either love them or find them incredibly annoying. I think they’re adorable in a hyperactive way. It helps that my sweet hubby sends me e-cards featuring these guys, so I get warm fuzzies every time I see them.Here’s a great way to meet them:
