Several months ago, my husband lost his job. Besides a few freak-outs, we took it in stride - knowing and believing that God had something in His plans for us. Something just for us. We’ve been through our share of difficult times, but this one…well, with this one, we felt at peace.
My husband still does [...]
You know, I’ve already written this blog post in my head…but then, I’d get busy living life and …I’d kind of forget all of the good parts. By the time I sit down to write, it’s not nearly as amusing any more.
So…I think this will be another bullet-point post. Because, I love lists and to [...]
This week has been intense, and thus most of our homeschooling has been sporadic! We’ll be doing a few more structured things once the big event we’ve been planning for is over. So, needless to say…no pictures SO far this week, but I did want to post our Lesson Plans for this week.

Lala: Oh! (Can) I have it?
Sir: ….no….
Lala: Daddy’s hair?
Growing up, I experienced a lot of unhealthy relationships, some even abusive. I yearned for that special kind of friendship that Hollywood made seem so real - the kind that never broke your heart, the kind that never failed to be there for you, the kind that would be there for you when you fell [...]
This past week has been a WHiRLWIND. CrAzY! We’ve been trying (to no avail) to get the house cleaned up and ready just for Sir to leave again. A little frustration came when 2 out of 3 of my Pampered Chef parties canceled very last minute, but I guess that’s how it goes. In hindsight, [...]
