Wow. That was a long break. But it was a break we all needed. We were so busy over the summer. We took a 2 week vacation to Florida with my mom and dad. The kids had so much fun going to the pool and the beach. And they loved hanging out with grandma and [...]

I found this picture when looking through pictures from our trip to Florida in January. So relaxing. So peaceful. So inviting. I thought this was the perfect way to announce that I will be taking a break from blogging. I will hopefully be back near the beginning of school. Enjoy the rest of your summer!!

I sat rocking Carley tonight and reflected over the day. What a day it was. I was so frazzled. I think all 3 of my children got together and decided to join forces and go against me. Derek sometimes sees himself as “the man of the house” and my equal. That presents a challenge when [...]

Today, my youngest turns 4. Happy Birthday, Carley. A lot has happened in 4 years. I remember that day so well. It can’t really be possible that it was 4 years ago. This is her first birthday without her daddy. She misses him so much. So, while we have another “first” today, we are truly [...]

I hope this won’t bother anyone. I wanted to post a couple picture of Justin and Carley that I took on Father’s Day. I think they so capture the innocence of these two precious children, but at the same time they show the intense feelings of loss they have for their daddy. Carley [...]

I just wanted to post a quick note. Tonight, after all the kids had had a bath or shower, I told them we could have a “family snack time” at the kitchen table. This is not typical for us because I don’t usually eat bedtime snacks with them. Anyway, they were all [...]

Well, it’s here. June 1st. The day I set to try to accomplish 3 of my goals. Several of you have checked in to see how I was doing with these over the last couple months. I have to say, that I am pleasantly surprised. I thought I wouldn’t achieve [...]

For this little story, I need to set the stage just a little. I’m sitting at the kitchen table. It’s 1114 pm and I hear feet on the steps. Oh, no, who’s up? That is a sound that no parent really wants to hear at that hour. Along with these [...]

Back in November, Stefan had a most unique conversation with my sister, Sharon. He had used less medication for that day, and she drove up to talk to him while he was still alert. He so wanted to get me a Christmas gift. And he didn’t think he would be here at [...]
