  • What happened when I quit Facebook

    I quit facebook.  It was huge for me.  I think either today, tomorrow, or the next day marks two weeks.  Two weeks! I don’t even know why I did it, except that somewhere in the past few years, months, weeks, or days, when it happened I’m not sure, but at some point, I kind of… Read more

  • The Joy of Childhood

    She just turned 26 months old.  I know I’m not supposed to do that anymore, you know, count her months.  But I’m just going to make my own rules up as I go.  Time is too precious to just cast it aside and not see every moment for the treasure that it is. Guess what… Read more

  • 2 Years Old

    Emma Kate Darling, Happy, Happy 2nd Birthday to you!!! Oh I hope you know how much you are loved. But I’m sure you don’t. Of all the thousands upon thousands of words I have to use, there aren’t enough to convey it. And not to boast or anything, (well maybe just a little), but you… Read more

  • Toddler Selfies

    My almost 2 year old (like in 3 days) is a phone snatchin’-selfie takin’-Instagram postin’ whiz kid. When I got a text from my sister asking if I posted some pics to Instagram, it caused a bit of alarm knowing I hadn’t. Geez, what could it be? I quickly popped over to see what she… Read more

  • Fingerprint

    I have a new item to add to my most prized possession list.   On second thought, it’s more like the only item on my most prized possession list. I’m in love. It’s a necklace and it deserves an explanation.     It was a gift to me from my darling, dear, precious friend Mrs.… Read more

  • Halloween 2013 wasn’t a total bust

    Months ago, I mean months ago, I saw a darling handmade owl costume on Pinterest.  You know Pinterest?  That website that will suck the hours right out of your day? I pinned it on my board entitled Possible Attempts. Around September, I knew I needed to get started, so I gathered the felt and began… Read more

  • Moment Dwelling

    Last night a physical sickness hit me and I couldn’t sleep because of it. I crept out of the bedroom leaving my husband and EK snoozing soundly, grabbed a down comforter, my robe, and headed to the couch where I still couldn’t sleep. I got my laptop and for a reason unknown,  I began looking… Read more

  • Dreaming Like a Baby

    Our local library launched its summer reading program this week with the theme Blazing the Trails.  It is phenomenal and the librarians have put an immense amount of work into this. On opening day for the Tiny Tots, we dug for pennies in sand, panned for gold, lassoed ponies, raced stick horses and sat real… Read more

  • The Hummers

    I overheard them talking in the doctor’s office a few weeks ago. You need to get ready for them. They’re here. We saw some at our place yesterday.  Hummingbirds. So I heeded their advice and went to The Walmarts to buy a couple of feeders.  I googled how to make sugar water (4 parts water… Read more
