My Little Girl a Senior?
OK...so, I have been a mom for over 17 years and though daily life with children can be draining, being a mom really is the most amazingly fulfilling thing I could spend my time doing. My daughter is in her senior year of high school and more and more I am coming to the realization that my time with her is drawing to far too rapid a conclusion. <heavy sigh> I am trying not to have a "doom and gloom" attitude through the realization … [Read more...]

Family Matters Blog guest
I am thankful for the opportunity Family Matters blog has given me to be a guest post writer for their new blog! I have been familiar with Tim and Darcy Kimmel for about five years and when I read the books Grace Based Parenting and Raising Kids for True Greatness...I became somewhat obnoxious with everyone I knew demanding that they read the books as well! When they held a conference in the town where I lived I convinced...er, uh, invited … [Read more...]
Understanding A Boys Eating Habits
Boys like to eat. I know..."Thank you Captain Obvious what else ya got?" What I've got is the inside scoop on the mindset of a boys eating cycle. And learning this fascinating tidbit of information left me entertained and happily intrigued with my son. Recently on a long road trip we were forced to stop at what shall remain an unnamed fast food restaurant (because it was Sunday...thus no Chick Fil A for us) and our son instantly was … [Read more...]
Shred-Pause (shhh, don’t tell Jillian Michaels)
OK, so I started the 30 day shred back in May - I fanatically and obsessively did 30 days in a row (besides Mother's Day and a family crisis day) and then continued with the thing five days a week for 30 more days. Since that time I have done the shred 3 to 4 days a week since. Well...Jillian is now sitting in the DVD player...waiting...to no avail. Yeah, I miss her - even have withdrawal symtoms. But after many days of 100 degree weather, … [Read more...]

Happy MOMents Quietly Observed
Watching my teen daughter and son playfully "razz" each other about who is "cute" at school! Teens that still find joy in quietly watching a hummingbird enjoy our feeder. My daughter folding her brothers clothes he hadn't gotten to yet. A rip stick with a broken wheel from over use. My son declaring that he didn't want to sit with certain boys at school because they talk crudely about girls. The childlike enjoyment of ice cream by … [Read more...]
