Sawyer is our youngest son. He is five now. He has all of his fathers “go getter” attitude with his mothers creative switch board. He is not an easy one to figure out. A very unique little fellow that doesn’t put up with anyone?s guff. He says what he thinks without thinking about it and […]

Owen is our oldest son. He is almost ten. He is a lot like me except pushier. He is our sheriff of the house. Never letting anyone off the hook about anything that is or isn’t important. He loves technology and is into making stop motion movies with legos. He has a hard time playing […]
I love lipstick. If I wear nothing else, I will roll a shade of thick color over my lips. Dark colors are my favorite, but here and there I will wear a lighter shade. The color I choose does have to go with what I’m wearing to a certain degree, but really I do wear […]
I don’t understand the power of prayer. I don’t understand how something so easy for us to do, can be so swept under the carpet as something thats as forgettable as writing a thank you note. I read in the Bible how we should pray ALL the time, not just for a meal, or when […]
I think one of the verses in the Bible I fall back on the most is in Philippians. Chapter 4. verse 13. You want to look it up real quick? I can do all things thru Christ that strengthens me. I consider myself a weak person. Stubborn? Oh yes. Responsible? Yea, ?I think so… Dependable? […]
I have had problems with depression and moodiness for as long as when I was a teenager maybe longer. I never realized I had an issue till I was about 23 years old. When I was at a doctors visit, my blood pressure reading was so bad, they had to re take it just to […]
I homeschool as you already know. One day, I really needed a break and wanted to spend the entire day in my work room. (My husband said I could if I wanted too) I wasn’t thrilled about the idea of kids interrupting left and right, but you know, I do have kids and I can’t […]
I have just finished a book called “What a Difference a Mom Makes” (to her son) by Dr. Kevin Leman. I really needed to read this book and I’m sure I will be reading it again at some point. I must admit, I have butted heads a lot with our oldest son. We are similar […]
My kids like Legos. What kids don’t right? Legos are a pain in my heels. Literally. I find them everywhere and find myself just not wanting to get them out! Picking them up is a real trial on top of them being everywhere. Those little plastic pieces cost a lot of money and it’s good […]
I can relax. Holidays stress me out. Not so much Thanksgiving or New Years I guess, but Christmas. For me personally as a woman, I have a lot to be in charge of. Setting the mood for my nest, planning the menus, buying the food, making the food. Then there is who we want to […]
I think I’m going to start getting reusable bags to give gifts in instead of paper bags or wrapping paper. They really don’t cost much more then a regular gift bag and sometimes less. They can be used for a lot more and stand up longer. Besides, our law makers are starting to force us […]
