Wonderful World
My reasons Ah, where to start? It’s been a long break from this blog, but I return to you in this space. I can’t say for sure that I’m rested or more inspired, but I’m more me. My children have grown just a little bit more. My motherhood has been rich with hugs, kisses and […]
The Next Thing on My List
Well, I, for one, think it’s high time I got back to blogging again. My life has reached a whole new level of busy-ness. I’ve picked up another day a week at work. I’m doing well in my new Origami Owl business. I’m playing volleyball again on Tuesday evenings. I’m teaching kindergarten and first grade […]
From the Trenches (& an Origami Owl giveaway!)
Oh, momma is tired. The bad news is that in less than twelve hours, I’ll be at work dealing with a couple of firestorms that have cropped up over the weekend. The good news is that I have celebrated ten years of marriage, launched my own side business and cleaned and decorated my house for […]
Girlfriends
What a busy week! I’m well on my way to recovering. When I finally got home tonight with the kiddos, it was bedtime. But one look at this house told me otherwise. I was in severe Kenmore withdrawal. So out came the sweeper, and I got down to business. Lower level straightened up and swept; […]
So This Is Christmas
Merry Christmas! We’ve had another blessed holiday around here, save for a couple of babies with strep throat and some other selected, but small, crises. It was a good time, and I’m still orienting myself to this very day and hour (is it true that 2011 is nearly over?!?), trying to get all the technological […]
This Side of the Mountain
I have so much to talk about, but I am beat. So instead of posting all the gorgeous photos of holiday visits with family and friends and my best girlfriend’s wedding, I’m going to simply post this one. This is a photo of my four kiddos with the newest kid on the block, Mr. Quinten […]
On the Exhale
Well, I am still catching my breath. I thought I’d post a little photo essay tonight to show what we’ve been up to the past week or so. Busy? Why yes, but in the best way. Still trying to land on my feet. More soon!
Wine a Bit
My life right now is one to-do list after another. I’m preparing for a trip to Denver and three special events at work. I’m up to my eyes in details and trying to fit so many tasks into the matrix. All of this, along with my life, is incredibly overwhelming. But I’m hanging in. My […]
The Best Idea in the World
Lily and I had “the best idea in the world” tonight as we stood in line waiting to pay our admission into the high school Homecoming game. Sister hadn’t felt well all afternoon, but made an amazing recovery before game time. But standing there in that line with her, in the fall chill, with her […]
A Whole Lot of Magic
We’ve been so busy with holiday magic that there just hasn’t been time for a proper blog post. In fact, there isn’t time now, because, even though I’m very tired, I’m the only one in the house awake. I must sleep when the family sleeps! But really, our days and nights have been full of […]
