I recently started keeping up with a blog of a family who gave birth to a precious daughter and then kissed her into the arms of Jesus all in one week. I call it a trial but after reading the words written by these parents, you will call it a living testimony, an encouragement. They posted a video [...]

Today our family participated in
This was to support , a Texas-based Social Service Agency and their program.
Check out Buckner’s website here.
Why am I mentioning all of this to you? I mention this b/c this is a big part of our lives. Not only do we have a heart for missions, esp. international orphan care, [...]

Not only is it my first time to respond to a meme tag but it is also my first attempt at a hyperlink. I hope all goes well!
My friend Anna at Sincerely Anna started me on this! For those of you new to blogging (like I was a mere 5 weeks ago), when there is a [...]

She wanted a dog. We refused. Then she decided about two years ago that she might never get a dog. So, either she was very smart or very innocent in telling me, “It’s okay mom, I don’t need a dog, I’ll just take a horse!”
Here we are two years later. Still without a dog and still without a horse. STILL living [...]

I just spent 5 hours at the zoo. Haven’t been in years so it was a treat for me (and my children).
Anywho, I couldn’t help but laugh when we approached the gorilla.
I was a bit apprehensive when I realized we were standing at the very site of the “gorilla gone mad” incident a couple years back. For [...]

It all started when I called on a particular student one morning. We were in the midst of devotions finishing up our Ten Commandments Unit.
The hand was raised. I called upon the child.
“Mrs. K, did you forget to brush your hair this morning?” Before I could answer, another sweet little first grader agreed saying, “yeah, it [...]

The Lad told us on Saturday that we might as well not buy him a helmet because “I will NOT wear it. I won’t need to. I am not riding my bike.” We told him “Fine.” Inside, I was steaming but I played along and smiled. After watching his sister (who is four years younger) [...]

One of my biggest frustration is getting a picture of all three kids together. I am successful in getting them all in a picture but it is NEVER to my liking. The Lad is usually the culprit causing all the trouble. He hates looking at the camera.
I splurged today and bought an ottoman to (sort [...]

I am off from teaching on Fridays so Little Miss and I headed to Dallas for her five year old check-up and my yearly check-up too! Here are a few pics from her visit. I decided not to take any of my visit-if you were wondering!
Because she is five and I guess the Dr. thinks [...]

These two sat down so quietly this afternoon and began our daily afternoon routine. They were just too cute munching on apples and doing homework. I do have proud moments! I love calm moments around here.
Because…
Most of the time we are more like this:

Sharing onion breath with Daddy!
and this-playing with Daddy! Have I [...]
