Stand in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; then you will find rest for your souls. ~ Jeremiah 6:16
November is almost over, and while we have enjoyed the down time from therapy we still have barely scratched the surface of all the things that need doing around here. That said we have been busy. I am another year older, perhaps not wiser. At 37 I made a list of 37 things I wanted [...]
I think most North Americans are somewhat familiar with Groundhog Day. On February 2 nd we await to see if the little guy will peek out of his hole and see his shadow. Supposedly, if he sees his shadow then it is six more weeks of winter, and if he doesn’t then we will [...]
I am always crafting something and recently I crocheted this bunny for Hannah. I found her pattern for free on Raverly, you can find the pattern here. I chose to go with a slightly heavier yarn than it suggested. Only because I really loved the feel of it. It was an alpaca wool blend, [...]
You know there is always two ways to look at something, and sometimes even more than two. Last night as I tucked Joel in to bed he looked at me and said, “I can’t wait for tomorrow!” “Oh why’s that?” I asked “Cuz I get my Easy Pod!” I always try to prep him the [...]
Well I am not surprised that I fell off the wagon so quickly, with this, ‘week in pictures post.’ So once again here are the last three weeks. Week 15 09-04-13We have a few of these hats in our dress up bin, both Joshua and Hannah often wear one to bed as their night-cap. [...]
Recently I had the opportunity to review the movie, ’Break Away,’ which has just been released onto DVD this week. Here is the synopsis which can be found on Word Films site; Francois is a hard-working husband and dad that gets laid off from his job. None of his efforts to get another job succeed and he [...]
I have debated writing this post. Back in March some anonymous person nominated my blog for the, The Top 50 Mom Blogs of 2013. Here is what the site had to say about the nominations. ”We are looking for the Top 10 Mom Blogs of 2013 written by parents to help promote and improve their recognition [...]
Ha ha! Week 14! Just one week, not three or five all at once. I finally have my weekly post up on time. Just when I was starting to feel all proud of myself and I went to grab my pictures and…. Umm where are my pictures from the 2nd and the 3rd? [...]

It seemed a little silly to hit you all with two posts so I thought I’d roll it all into one. I’ll start with Joel, I believe I mentioned before that Joel had a long drawn out test to see if he was producing Growth Hormone (GH). We received his results a couple of weeks back [...]
Today is 3 years from Joel’s brain surgery. I remember thinking, all we have to do is make it through this surgery and everything will be fine. 11 hours later the surgery was over, but when I walked into the ICU to see Joel I was hit that everything was not going to be just [...]
Today is an anniversary of sorts. Three years ago today our world was turned upside down. I remember all the details of that day more vividly than I do the birth of my children. I can hear, smell, see, and feel that day almost as real as this very day. I have already shared my [...]
If you are new here my goal was to take a picture a day and post them weekly… Honestly, could I be any worse at this?? Really?? I had no idea I would be this terrible or I would never have jumped at this. Sure I expected I would forget to take a picture here [...]
