Happy 2014
In March!
Did someone give the clock a whirl? How is it possible that we are already into the third month of this new year? Mister Time, could you, would you, please do this momma a favor and slow down. I can hardly catch my breath. My once toddlers are teetering on the brink of tweens and teens. Oh my heart, I am so not good at this, [...]
The Old Soul
I am more and more convinced that only a few families get the honor to parent a child with an “old soul”.
As a parent, it can be difficult, especially for the momma’s. It is often difficult to know when to step in, or just let them be who they are. Because really, it is me who has the problem, not my child. It is me, wh [...]
The Dentist Escapade
Clearly, dentists are either tolerated, loved or feared, right? Growing up I never really dreaded the dentist like so many people I know did. Most of my experiences were pretty routine with the exception of having all four of my Wisdom teeth pulled at once and a surgery to turn one of my teeth to grow upright. Other than that, just cleanin [...]
This Says it All….
This video completely represents many of conversations Kip and I try to have. Ever since G & H learned to talk, it has become harder for me to hold onto a thought. So many of my thoughts are floating around somewhere, as funny as this video it, it isn’t! Enjoy!
Trainin’ Up a Boy! (Random Thou...

The other life lesson that I have always be [...]
Preschool Review
Gigi’s last day of school was chalk full of fun!
Lots of fun memories this school year, so many good friendships formed, great teachers and so much individual growth. Much like, her big brother, G really benefited from this experience.
Last days are so bittersweet, especially for mom. My babies are growing so fast, how is it possible? [...]
Many May Blessings
Some days when you think you just cannot make it through the day, life gives you a reality check.
1. I am so grateful that my children have chosen good, respectful friends at school.
2. I am equally grateful that they have had great teachers this year.
3. I am blessed beyond belief for the husband that I have, who loves us and provides for [...]

Heaven Sent
Anyone who has kids knows how wonderful being a parent is, even during the more difficult seasons. That being said, I am amazed how easy it is to get wrapped up in a difficult phase and how it can consume you with worry, guilt and fear. (That probably will never change, right?) As parents, we want what is best for our children; we want the [...]
