Very simple and easy idea to spice up coloring time: Take an old poster board, flip it over and trace an over-sized “coloring page” on the page. For some reason, having it over-sized and drawn by Mommy is very exciting.
Ahh, the little things that make them feel like they are really living the life.
Although, I [...]
I gain a lot of inspiration in photographs. They help me to remember that it is the “Everyday Things” that make life really beautiful.
I am sure you have all heard of this book, A Year of Mornings. I have owned it since it came out. Two bloggers, 3191 miles apart, decided to each put a picture on [...]
There has been a change in our schedule here in my home that has me scrambling to get things done and keep sane. I am in the “in between” phase, where I am trying my hardest to get everything done but really need to sit down and once again come up with a new “Time [...]
When catalogues come in the mail it is considered an exciting mail day.
For the mom in the house.

He is a busy guy. Everyone is busy. Every husband is busy. I know this. I also know that his busy is at a whole new level. It is hard for me. This is why I have to remember [...]
This picture should be documentation that I usually DO wear makeup.
This is me without makeup and a beautiful zit on my forehead.
Quite sexy, I know.
Man I love them.
Even if at the end of the night I am ready to run away, I still love them. Sometimes the hour before bedtime is the hardest. Our [...]
What is your escape? Your “Pure Bliss.” Somewhere you run to where you know, without fail, you will have the time of your life.
My two year old’s special place is her older sister’s bed. To just lie in it or, even better, to find her sister’s hidden (hidden from HER) Polly Pockets and play with them [...]
