I suppose yesterday’s post of reflecting on things “way back when” has got me reminiscing….and especially about Easter celebrations when the kids were little ones. Some of the fun (or silly) things we did every year…or just the little things we always looked forward to at Easter. Our Easters were…

Lovin’ That Stink!
I hope this doesn’t expose too much of my weird side…but I stepped outside yesterday and it stunk!….and I loved it!! You see, our neighborhood association has a lawn service for all our common areas and the men had been busy all day – laying fresh mulch…and the aroma of…well,…
A Ring!!…..Part Two
Thankful Thursday ….and about that ring?!?! That was given to my beautiful daughter last week (yes, the very same week that my son left…goodness!) by her boyfriend….who is a “real keeper”!! That’s right, I’m soon to be a mother-in-law! Like I said, it was quite the week last week. It…
Thankful Thursday …. and I have tried all week to prepare this post…which has proved to be much more difficult that I thought. They were either too corny, too sticky sweet or just too emotional for me. Then again, just about everything as been emotional for me this week. This…
You’re Gonna Miss This!
Before I begin, I feel like my post needs a bit of a disclaimer…it seems to me that lately all of my posts – a reflection of my thoughts, I suppose – center around the idea of my children “taking flight”…establishing lives of their own, growing up and needing me…
What’s With December 21st??
Let me say..for the record… I am not superstitious in any way what so ever; however, I have been, shall we say, somewhat leery of December 21st. It was three years ago – December 21st – that my Tyler was diagnosed with his brain tumor and one year ago –…
Be Gentle with Yourself
I so tried to post yesterday. In fact, I spend quite some time setting up a really neat Christmas post (that required lines to be in a specific order, etc.); however, when I publish things, so often the spacing is all changed and it does not look at all like…
Aunt Joanie
Thankful Thursday….this Thursday finds me on the road to visit my dad’s older sister, my Aunt Joan, who will be celebrating her 80th birthday on Saturday. Don’t let the number 80 fool you – no ma’am – she has more energy, more fashion sense and certainly more memory than I…
A Message from My Nephew
These are my cute nephews….two super sweeties! They live too far away – in Texas – and I don’t get to see them much but I do love them. When I wrote about God supplying my need yesterday, I wanted to share a sweet story about my younger nephew (the…
No….No…we have not gone over the edge and gotten another dog (one Rascal is enough for any house!!). This is my brother’s new puppy but I just had to share her picture…is there really any way to look at that face and not smile?! What a sweetheart! God blesses us…
