Snow
December 3rd, 2009 · No Comments
We have snow in the forecast this weekend. I really hope we get some. We have not had a good snow in YEARS. I would love for my kids to get a snow big enough to play in before they grow up.
I wish we would get a good enough snow to use our sleds. That [...]

Christmas is Just Around the Corner!
December 2nd, 2009 · No Comments
Are you ready? I certainly am not. But, in this economy, Christmas for our family will be short and sweet. One gift each is the limit this year which is much different from last year. Hopefully people will finally remember what Christmas is really about.
I do not think it will hurt any of us to [...]

She is now reading on a 2nd grade 9th [...]

Remember the Reason for the Season
December 19th, 2008 · No Comments
When celebrating Christmas, it is important to take time to remember the reason for the celebration. When all of the stores and business are taking the Christmas out of the celebrations, something is very wrong. When we take Christ out of Christmas, we have totally denied the very reason for Christmas.
I think that with the [...]
Attic Addition

We are so excited to be so close to having a place to live. After losing our house to foreclosure, we have been living in our camper in my mom’s back yard for far too long. We only slept in the camper, the rest of the time we were in the house. Mom’s house is [...]
The Sandwich Generation – continued…
November 13th, 2008 · No Comments
Since my last posting, I have gotten some great responses to my situation with my mom. I really appreciate all who have made suggestions and/or gave support.
However, a comment posted by a reader has been the most helpful of all. It has given me a much needed new perspective on the situation. God answered my [...]

Birthdays
November 12th, 2008 · 1 Comment
Isn’t it funny how children do not understand why parents are not thrilled when our birthdays roll around? I explained to my daughter who will soon be 9, parents do not as a rule have parties or get a lot of gifts. Most of the time we have to work on our birthday and it [...]
