It’s September 15th, or is it the 14th? Regardless of the number on the calendar, it is my favorite time of year. It’s a dreary, overcast day and my thoughts bounce around randomly, like an annoying fly trying to find a place to light, but never satisfied for long. I’m feeling a tad under the… Read more

When I was a teacher, just a few short months ago, I used to believe teaching was the hardest profession there was. In fact, I’ve been known to tell people that very thing. Now that I’m a stay-at-home-mom, I have changed my opinion and believe mommy hood is the hardest job there is. More than… Read more

Hey baby girl, Another month has come and gone. It’s simply unbelievable. You are still as cute as always. And pssst, just between you and me, some people are saying you are starting to look like me. It thrills my soul every time I hear it. You sure are good lookin’, but your insides are… Read more

Precious, darling Emma Kate, Look at you grow, girl! Mama doesn’t even know where to begin telling you about your very busy month. I have so much to say, so I guess instead of starting at the beginning, I’ll just start at the top. Your hair. It has lightened up some, still brown, and is… Read more

Each day, right after her cup of coffee, she laces up her tennie runners as her dad used to call them, straps the baby in the stroller and begins her walk down a lonely dirt, country road. Slow at first, building steam, gearing up. Just barely after she starts, her mind tells her to quit.… Read more

Our baby girl loves it outside. No matter the mercury reading, she hasn’t learned to complain about the heat yet. We haven’t cut her hair to look like a mohawk on it’s way to growing out, it’s just the way her hair, well is growing out. Possibly one of the reasons she’s mistaken for… Read more
