Month: November 2007

I woke up this morning feeling grumpy, achy, ugly, weepy, PMSy. I stayed in bed an extra hour snuggling in my warm bed, heated mattress cover on HIGH, listening to the sounds of our oldest two moving about, getting ready for school.There is something comforting about the norm...the schedule...the expected.When the oldest hollered out, "I'm [...]

With all of the focus and attention being on Lucy lately (and by lately, I mean the past year...I have eluded to the fact that she/we had a difficult sophomore year, I know), I feel that I have neglected Philip and Caleb.I think I'll share a few pics and thoughts on these two incredible (there's [...]

This is where I have my morning quiet time, bible study time, journaling time. I love spending time in here early on a cold morning. The only sound being the dogs stretching in the kitchen, the clock on the buffet softly ticking. I've added a few Christmas touches to my dining room. We've purchased a [...]

Bloggy Tradition states I must post 100 things about myself. Trust me on this...I am Bor-ring. (But y'all keep posting those 100 things about yourselves because they are NOT boring!)I'm going to use my 100th post for six little words:Happy Birthday Darlin'. I love you.

“You know, My Girl, that God put you in this place, for this purpose, to be relevant in this generation, at this time.”How often does one have the opportunity to say this to one's daughter?I did yesterday morning at 0700 on the way to a long day of working club volleyball tryouts. My Girl had [...]
