This life? It’s awesome. Truth? It’s not always great. It has it’s moments when I’m madly texting a friend about something one of the kids did. Or I’m apologizing to Lance for something I did.

Today is the feast of St. Blaise. When Lance was confirmed, he chose St. Blaise as his confirmation saint because St. Blaise is patron over those with throat ailments. At one point in our marriage, (when one of the babies arrived, I think), Lance’s throat started closing in on him. Fear, maybe. We found a […]
I’m wife to Lance, mom to a troupe of four boys and one girl. I’m Catholic, a wannabe homeschooler, obsessed with Children’s books, Snoopy and the Texas Longhorns. While I haven’t really converted Lance, he lets me watch games in peace, has been to the National Championship Games with me and knows not to invite people over when I’m watching a game.
