Hello 2011

January 3, 2011

In the past year, I haven’t written much here. Life has been busy. Other things have taken precedence. I may have been a little lazy. I really want that to change. I’ve been writing here for almost 5 years. FIVE YEARS. That’s truly amazing to me. I look back over those 5 years and I’m [...]

Done is for the oven

November 30, 2010

Yes, my 7 year-old BJ is very smart. Too smart. I kind of want to pop him because he’s starting to correct MY grammatical mistakes. Daily. Tonight I told him to get his math homework done. BJ: We’ve talked about this before, mommy. Done is for the oven!! Finished is when you’ve completed something. Get [...]

From the backseat

July 2, 2010

And because of those sometimes you get little surprises like these. I’m just now getting around to going through the rest of the 600+ images from our road [...]

Vacation

June 23, 2010

I’ve been a little MIA over here. It’s not that I don’t have things to share, because ohmygoshIdo. So many things. Little things, big things. Lots. My children are amazing and beautiful, and we took them on a road trip to Florida. YES! Florida, and we drove. No, we didn’t go on the typical Disney [...]

Why, hello.

April 15, 2010

It’s raining here, and I don’t know what it is about rain that makes me want to post here. Well, I also wanted to post because it’s obviously been about 386 years since I’ve posted here. Gah.
