This has been a long, long week. As we are preparing and starting our new school year, I’m always tweaking this and changing that….it can be a challenge, but honestly, it’s something I look forward to each and every year. We’re working with the littles using Five In A Row. It’s a long-time favorite in our home with our young…

“Here Kitty, Kitty….”
I’m not sure she knew what was coming:
Cooking Class
Timothy (8) has an interest in cooking. Not just any interest, but I think if it’s possible, he could be a budding “foodie”, even at his young age. He’s had this fascination since he was about 3…always right under me while I’m cooking…always asking questions. It’s not at all uncommon to walk into the family room on a morning when…
Jessica
Jessa’s afternoon chores include cleaning off the front porch. I wonder if she’ll ever know how it warms my heart to see the little touches she adds to her work??
Jessica’s 13th Birthday
It’s still hard to believe that Jessica has turned 13. For many years, I wasn’t sure this young lady would see her 13th birthday. If you are new to my site, Jessica was born with multiple, serious heart issues that eventually led to her having a multiple seizures each day and a heart surgery that can only be described as…
Celebrating Jessa…
Wow, my little girl has turned 13. This is a miracle to me. I honestly didn’t know if I would ever be celebrating this time with her…my sweet daughter had so many things happening to her body when she was little. God has been so good to us. We’re still mid-celebration for this young lady. Though, we’ve technically celebrated her…
Dentists…
Good morning! I hope that your day has started out well and you are accomplishing all that you have set out to finish today. We actually started our day a little later than usual. Our day yesterday and night, last night was filled (to overflowing) by a broken dishwasher and then a broken pipe under the sink. I’m so thankful…
Recovering
This will be a short post today…I’m still recovering from my oral surgery. Overall, this has not been a bad experience, but I’ve got to tell you…Motrin is my friend! I still have stitches on my lower jaw and it is still very swollen and sore. I was fortunate to be able to take less pain medication after the procedure…
Jessica’s Story
It was a cool October day when I was blessed with my sweet little girl Jessica. The trip to the hospital that day was full of anticipation and excitement knowing that I would return in a few days with a new little pink bundle to grace my home. I think, even being my fourth child, I took the birth process…
Scout Night
It’s scout night at our home. We usually spend our day doing school, preparing dinner, and getting everyone ready to walk out the door for scouts. I’m trying to get into the habit of going to the scout meetings as a family again instead of just sending the boys. We all had such a good time when we used to…
