Love is……
A handmade, fleecey blanket.
My sweet eight year old daughter is growing up so fast, but it brings me great pleasure to see her interested in creating things with her hands.
What seems to be a growing trend, many of my dear friends and mommies, like me, are trying to bring back the art of homespun simplicity.
Back in the day, it was the only [...]
Berkfest in Bed, please?
Some sweet little girl in our house had a very specific, special request. In fact she organized the whole thing, down to the bow tie, daddy would wear.
The request: Breakfast in bed Sunday morning before church.
Sweet as can be, how could a daddy resist this honor? Flattered by the request Kip accepts this task. Gillian, however is not qui [...]
Tinkies
How blessed am I to be a mommy? So often I wonder “how crazy it is that my son and daughter or so extremely opposite”, but when I really focus on what God has given me, I realize I could not be any more blessed- unless I could have had more just like them!
On our wonderful trip this past weekend my daughter and I were able to go [...]
The Pumpkin Masterpieces
For two years I have managed to be gone on the night that the kids carve their pumpkins. Both times I was welcomed home with amazingly carved pumpkins waiting for me and lighting my path to the door.

My Little Girl
This week we took Gillian for her first full eye exam with our favorite Optometrist, Dr. Bergamo. Gillian has been getting several headaches so we decided to start with getting her eyes checked. Although her eyes are NOT ‘bad’ there are some issues that glasses can maybe help with. She has a small astigmatism, which apparen [...]
Still Love to Watch My Kids Sleep
There is nothing sweeter than watching your children sleep. They look so angelic and bring so much peace to my heart.
Our dog, Zippy has finally discovered that he can sleep in Hayden’s room. A boy needs his dog, always.
My mom is very talented in making doll clothes, so I asked her to make a period outfit for Gillian, (she will be ne [...]
Christmas Cards or Bust!!!
This year Momma Elf had to solicite the help of her little elves to get the Christmas Cards out the door. These cards were truly Christmas cards as most of them arrived to their destination on December 24th.
Why such a delay?? Well the card maker had all of the cards made and ready for the next step in the process (When did Christmas cards [...]
