Lists, Bathtubs, and Faith

The realization that the laundry isn't clean and put away, dust is stacking up on furniture, and the house hasn't been picked up in a couple of days has sunk in. Everyone laughs and says that's what happens when you have a baby and all the extras that come with them. I haven't quite figured… Continue reading Lists, Bathtubs, and Faith

Christmas Spirit

I have been struggling coming up with something to write about lately and while trying to concentrate on that topic my brain kicks over to what needs to get done before Christmas. Gifts mailed out, check.

Live Life!

Approximately 151,600 people die each day around the world according to ecology.com. That's 6,316 each hour! I've been remembering family and friends who have passed away too early, for me anyway. Lung cancer in a lady who never smoked, a mother with multiple children getting brain cancer, a father's heart stopping, and numerous others. I don't… Continue reading Live Life!

Toddler Entertainment

We were recently sitting at a restaurant with little Q in his high chair just letting out screams. Big, happy screams mind you, but screams, nonetheless. He then smiles big before more screams escape. At least the table close to us didn't seem to mind or notice from what I could tell. They must have noticed he was… Continue reading Toddler Entertainment
