Last night, after finally escaping the perils of our attic with a suitable shirt, my parents, Steven, Lorelei and I were off to the trail of treats in a local park.
The pirate (and her blankie) and her baby brother/sister
I’d love it if you stalked me (subscribe to my RSS feed). Thanks for visiting!
I like to think of myself as “messy organized.” I’m not a neat freak by any means (although I do like CLEAN, especially if *I* don’t have to do it), but I do want everything to have a place. This is NOT the same as having to have everything in its place ALL THE TIME. [...]
Actually, I’m pregnant - but, when you feel like you are becoming a whale, you feel like a whale. Mostly, I know that in a few months I will be huge and it’s going to take you longer to get there (unless you have with-holding news from me), so I am giving you a head [...]
Finding out you are pregnant can be a joyous time in your life, but there can also be some very mixed emotions about who and when and how to tell…
“Will my boss try to fire me or think I can’t do my job as well?”
“Will my coworkers look down on me?”
“Will my family and friends [...]
We’ve been off of homeschool for so long, it really is time that we get back into it with a renewed vigor. Unfortunately, I’m pretty sure someone swiped and threw out my homeschool papers I’d had printed out. We won’t name any names or anything, because in all seriousness, it could have been [...]
Ooops. I made a few updates to this blog a while back and never really quite got around to telling you all about them - it’s not that I don’t think you can see with your own eyes, I just thought I’d tell you more.
So, here we go…the “tour.”
Ladies and gentlemen please board [...]

Holy smokes! I almost missed the blog carnival!
I have 2 great books to give away from the Chicken Soup for the Soul Series: Moms and Sons and Like Mother, Like Daughter
I love reading Chicken Soup for the Soul books, and always find their stories to be inspirational and great. I thought it would be great [...]
First we scoop out the “guts”…
And then we show daddy how to do it the “right” way…
And then we draw out our fabulous design… (and yes, I’m in PJs…after noon…)
We lick our pumpkin pieces…or, she does…
She even takes a bite…
Dad, this tastes NOTHING like pumpkin pie (spit, sputter)
Finish decorating the baby pumpkin … and then [...]
I had always said that I wanted to be a published writer, and while I unintentionally phrased it in such a way that would make that goal easy to TECHNICALLY check off the list - I never quite did what I wanted to do. I have written and published poetry, I write about my life [...]
