Right Out Of Flipper
Came across this inspiring animal story, and since I haven’t had the time to blog about any of the (mostly yucky) personal issues going on right now, I thought this would make a nice feel-good post. I’m still working on that Florida trip diary, really, I am!! But in the meantime, here is a story

Monkey, Er, Ape See – Ape Do
To take a break from the vacation unpacking, I took the little ones to the zoo a few weeks ago. We had a great time – oh how I love winter zoo visits! There aren’t many people around, and the animals can act like the animals they are instead of worrying about the hoards of

A Different Sort Of Homecoming
Before I publish my vacation diary, I would like to say a few words about some unexpected feelings I encountered upon returning home.

Florida 2011
Well, I’ve been back in town from a glorious family vacation to Florida for a few days now, and realistically, I guess I could say that I’m getting back on track. But catching up is going so slowly, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and like I’ll never be done. But you know what? With
The Dude Is Growing!
My son had his 30-month (2½ years for you laypeople) check-up at the doctor today. All is well, though he wasn’t very cooperative for the student doctor in training when it came to getting his nose and ears checked. And he had to get a shot, which of course was sad to witness. Unlike his

A God Story
I love coming across God stories. Real life anecdotes which display the way God works in our lives, God stories can be experienced by Christians and non-Christians alike; it’s just a matter of recognizing them and taking the time to be thankful and appreciate them. I was at our babysitter’s house last week picking up
FIVE MORE DAYS!!
Only FIVE more days until we leave for a family vacation to warm sunny Florida!! Making this one even better than most are extended family and friends that are able to meet us down there. The kids (and us!!) could not be more excited!!! I just have to figure out how to get 6 people
