Senior Daughter = Bling With Wheels

Oh my gosh! I have always said April and May were the crazy busy months for all moms. Well, let's ramp that up a gazillion notches when your daughter is a Senior in High School. So much to do...so little time - is no longer a cliche - it is my existence! I am enjoying all that we are doing, even though the pace seems a bit much! But hey, I think I am managing to stay on top of things, so it's all good. Graduation photos, invitations, … [Read more...]

MOMents Quietly Observed – Grandparent Edition

My teens running to greet my parents (visiting from another state) with open arms and lots of energetic happiness. My teen daughter “pile driving” her MUCH larger younger brother and him grinning from ear to ear because she still wants to tousle with him! Me declaring I want to play Kinect and my teens and parents joining in – that was a site to behold! My father down at the corral gently petting our horses Honey and Dot…knowing that he … [Read more...]

Epic Fail, Spring Break, Six Flags

We lived in the great state of Texas for just over five years...and we loved it! One of the things we had always wanted to do while living there was spend a day at Six Flags Over Texas Amusement Park. Well, somehow that never happened. So, that's been on our family "bucket list" for a long while. We knew one of these days we would manage to make that happen...but time is slipping away as our daughter is a Senior in High School. Well, hubby … [Read more...]

Pet or Family Member?

Allow me to begin by saying I am not writing this to rile anyone up...or to start a "don't diss my dog war" I am writing it to educate and pose a valid question. You see I have long been someone who enjoys animals, but think that some people (including some of my own family members) go too far by treating them like humans. My mom does not care for pets in the home and just doesn't get it when others are so into their pets. My daughter is drawn … [Read more...]

Things I Been Meaning To Do

mail repeatedly dumped in gift sack...wanna gift? So...I have been back from the Homeschool Convention for days...I have only managed to write one post all week! Why is it that going out of town gets me SO FAR behind on my to do's? Because of my responsibilities over at MomLife Today and my guest post writing it seems my own blog suffers the most from neglect when I am pressed for time. You know I have often heard a painters abode is the … [Read more...]

Teen w/a Tude? Here’s help…

If you read my post yesterday you may have thought, "Well, she must have the world's best daughter!" Actually, no, but she does have the advantage of the Holy Spirit to guide her...however, sometimes the Holy Spirit cannot guide teens because parents are wimps! (Me included!) Join me over at MomLife Today where I share the latest "round" I had with my teen daughter and how God used it to teach her (and me) a little something of His … [Read more...]

Teen Preach…Good Stuff

My daughter's Facebook Status... I AM SO SICK OF HIGH SCHOOL DRAMA! Everyone just STOP! PEOPLE..think about someone other than yourself. Love God and love others, those are the ONLY things that matter in this world.. This was not (btw) provoked by any one person, but it does apply to (at least) my entire school. Myself included! It is beyond time for us to step up and stop being such hypocrites. Who we are on Sunday should be who we are on … [Read more...]
