Well, this may date me, (would you believe I started having kids at 10yo? LOL, no? okay ) but my first child, my only son, my first baby, my boy, is 15 years old today. Makes me sad. Makes me sentimental. For some reason, 13 and 14 sounds like barely a teenager, still very young.…

Well we made the trip to Texas and back. So great to see Mom & Don & Grampie! Looooooooooooooooong drive. 17-20 hours. We ended up going all the way down to Houston and surprising them at the airport. Then traveling back up to Nacogdoches the next day. We attended most of the reunion with them.…

Well, a long-weekend mini-vacation may be in our future. I’m afraid to speak/type about it. Afraid it might not happen. It would be the first time we have taken the van on a long trip since we’ve had it. We love to travel. The whole family does. And we haven’t for ages. No more than…

So the dog likes geese eggs. To steal them from the nests, anyhow. We were able to save 2 of them, but could not find the nest they came from, so the girls are going to ‘hatch’ them. Unfortunately a third one didn’t make it

So I was just thinking last night as I watched an update on the situation in Iraq, how weird it was that I didn’t know anyone over in the war this time. That’s what I get for thinking. Last time my love was there. Last time I was pregnant and delivered our baby while he…

Constantly, I’m learning. I’m thankful, because I never want to stop. But sometimes, I can overwhelm myself. A lot of the time.
