How’s that for a creative title? I don’t have much time to exercise my creativity these days; well, that’s not true… In my daily adventures of running a household of 7 and caring for 5+ kids every day, I exercise creativity all the time. I need to “fly by the seat of my pants” all […]

This post is about nothing because I should be in bed. I’m writing as a way to vent because I can’t sleep. We’ve let our daughter have sleepovers pretty much constantly for the past 2 weeks. We’ve run into some of her friends and figured what a better way to end summer in a fun

Here it is mid-April already! It’s funny that a few days ago I thought I had made the decision to not blog anymore, but here I am (part of this doing-less-for-me-more-for-others mentality I’m attempting). I have a kid who wants to train to be a babysitter by watching her siblings, and I have a baby

Here we are in the middle of August already, how did that happen? I know how July flew by for me since most of it was spent traveling, but where the heck has the beginning of August gone? I am 30 weeks + a few days pregnant. I talked to the doctor yesterday and am
Some comic relief in the title of this post to distract me from quite an overwhelming day today: Received some devastating news (for us, but don’t worry – it’s great news for some friends of ours) prayed about it, and examined the possibilities that may arise from it. There’s also been several intriguing and exciting

Just a few of the reasons why I dislike the time change, especially the “Spring Ahead” version: 1. LOSING AN HOUR OF SLEEP 2. Mechanical clocks can be reset, kids’ internal clocks cannot. I will lose an hour of sleep, and my kids will still wake up at the same time, which doesn’t bode
