Boy Mom
My parents gave me a great, great gift. They took my kids to Wisconsin for three weeks while I was in the last month of my pregnancy. I REALLY enjoyed myself. I kept super busy with nesting things: organizing clothes and toys, going through baby things, making freezer meals, going out to eat with husband... we went to Disney a few times to eat ( Read more... ) -

The school year finished up pretty uneventful, yet extraordinarily busy. I suppose that is life with kids! Weekends booked, days jammed. I did end up giving up the internet for Lent and I loved it. I have resorted back to a lot of mindless surfing and do want to put parameters back on it. The hard part is that I actually do keep up with people ( Read more... ) -
A Lenten Sacrifice?
I think I may give up 95% of the internet, excluding certain apps on my phone and my email.

I Feel Needed
At the end of last school year, I got hooked up with the youth minister at my church. She is young, vibrant, impressionable and fun. She thinks she is a lot older than she is. She reminds me of how I was when I was just out of college. I was a little unavailable last year because K had trips scheduled and was gone several weeks in an (almost) ( Read more... ) -

The first "week" of school is over. There have been SEVERAL hang-ups: Hunter cried all day on the first day, On the boys' first day, we got caught in a horrible lightening storm and I had to dry out all their things with my hair dryer. Most traumatically, I cut my fingertips with a circular saw and had to go to the ER. They are healing, but it ( Read more... )
