Big J (10), Baby J (just turned 1!) and Little M (2) seem to have picked up a bit of a ‘common cold’ bug- very runny nose, watery eyes, a bit of a cough, thankfully no fevers, so no, I do not think this is the flu, seasonal or swine, excuse me, H1N1. I know [...]

One of our local mailmen, no, really…
His name is Elvis, and he has left the building,

I sent the children off to tidy their rooms late yesterday morning. The timer was set for 15 minutes, one of my favorite new habits from flylady, and they were working hard to see who could get the cleanest room- the winners were promised a Sprite. Our children don’t often get pop, so every now [...]

When I probably should have been taking pictures of soccer players, especially the one that’s mine, I was extremely distracted by this glorious sight.

No really, don’t panic. I lost all of my nice formatting when I moved the blog over to my new domain. I just need to find some time to rework it… that should be easy to find, or not… soon, I hope, soon.

And His smile will be the first to welcome me.
(CHORUS)
I shall know Him, I [...]
