The time has come

This time of year is full. Of course the calendar is jammed packed (I have had to write all over the margins), paperwork has been a bit abundant, the to do list is never ending, and my heart is full. I just reread what I typed to make sure that was what I was truly [...]

a thought…..

We have had an AMAZING weekend so far!  We have had MANY MANY people in our home and I have loved every minute of it.  Just in case you didn’t know….I get VERY stressed out VERY easily.  But…..this weekend I have embraced this quote and moved on and enjoyed what has come my way. Neighbors [...]

I should have been working….

I have discovered that spending a couple hours in my classroom every weekend tends to ease my Monday morning jitters and “I don’t want to go to work” blues.  I had PLENTY of time to go up and REALLY work in my room this weekend due to having Good Friday free!   And I certainly [...]

Makes me smile…

Nothing too special about this photo. Well, I lie. That little girlie is certainly special to me. And that handsome one?  Mr. Knight is MINE and I absolutely LOVE LOVE watching him father our children. Our family has a special bond. Evenings at home are special. Being out on the patio making funnel cakes, completing [...]

Been a while….

Blogging obviously has not been too high on my priority list lately.  To be honest, I have been trying to keep my head above water.  Many HAPPY and great things are a part of my life but balancing the mundane and the things of most importance (family) has got me in quite a doozy of [...]

Reminded

I was ever so gently reminded once again that I CANNOT do this parenting thing alone.  Typically when I say that, I am referring to the need I have to parent with my best friend, my partner in life.  It certainly takes TWO to parent.  I believe that is the best model but I often [...]

Legacy

My love for scrapbooking is partly selfish.  It is the time I fellowship with other ladies who share a common interest.  It also gives me a sense of accomplishment. My love for scrapbooking is also used to bless my family.  I caught these two examining each page of my scrapbook with smiles and giggles.   There were [...]

let us talk about me….

 Well, not really.  I kinda dumped my heavy heart in my last post and did not give hardly a detail.  I appreciate the concern you all have for me.  See!?!?!!?!  Sometimes loving others hurt.  The Lord is good indeed even amongst the hurting.  I have followed up on a few of my friends who are [...]

Heavy

Need to write/share something on this blog thingy I have avoided lately.  Unfortunately the only topic that comes to mind tonight is HEAVY.  My heart aches for all the HEAVY stuff weighing so many people down.  Weighing people down that I love!  What is going on?   In a very, very modified format:  Death of [...]

Half way

Well, my sweet son pointed out to me tonight that we are half way there.  “Keep smiling, mom, we have almost made it,” he said.  Of course that excites me but I have kinda been numb to the whole thing. I have plenty to share but I am very very very tired so I am [...]
