I hate to disagree with Father’s sermon this morning but I do not think ALL adults lose that sense of wonder and imagination that all children share. Some of we old’uns still possess some of those traits that create a magical feeling on Christmas morning and throughout the year. Many seem to choose to hide […]

I’ve developed a sense of gratitude for facebook. I startered using it just to make contact with my children, but I’ve noticed that there are times it puts me in a thoughtful mood. Case in point, a question was brought up today: “If you could go back 20 years in your life, would you?”. I’ve

October is normally one of the busiest months for our family, and that was true before October 2011 – the month that saw us being blessed with a new baby, starting homeschooling, and Hubby starting a new job/career all at the same time. There are so many fun fall and Halloween events and activities that

I have had a great Halloween thus far. I did decide to go to my voice lesson in costume (anyone who remembers my costume from last year… recycled but still worth it). It did give me an idea for a quick costume change for “Songs I Have Learned.” I felt like Sky Masterson or “Good

There was even a time when I was trying to help organize a haunted attraction. This year I’ve had the pleasure of being one of the haunts. What can I

My little boy Christopher is 3 years old, and we’ve been working on potty training for a while now. He gets it, but he just doesn’t remember to make it to the potty every time he has to go. The other day we were in Walmart, and he wanted to use the potty. Because he

Strange how the events of a few days can change the atmosphere around you. Just days after I was joyously welcoming the arrival of two special little ones, a life-long family of friends experienced not one, not, two, but three tragedies. On Thursday, one of my dearest friends welcomed a new granddaughter. The moments Teresa

Overall, so much better than my fears were telling me it would go. I had my second cesarean section on Friday, October 7. Boy was I nervous beforehand! I figured I would write out the details, just in case we decide to do this again I can look back at it and know what to
Today, I became an uncle yet again. Kyndal Grace Hazelton was born at 3:46pm weighing in at 7lbs 10oz and measuring 19.5″. It has been a long haul but she arrived safely. Calls at 12:30am… 3:00am…7:45am. Finally, Charnel’s water was broken around 11 this morning. We have two little girls and a Bandit sharing the
