Friday night was take 2 of Terese’s birthday dinner. Despite still feeling sick, I had a blast. Birthday dinners with Cindy, Terese and Carter are something we all look forward to.

Flexibility has never been easy for me. I make lists and adhere to them. I love making plans and crossing things off, one by one.

I asked Squirt how his trip went and the first thing he wanted to tell me was that he held hands with a girl. On the one hand, I am glad that he shares this kind of thing with me, but on the other hand, I am so not ready for him to date and […]

We returned from our trip last night. We had a great time relaxing in the mountains and then spending time with friends in Atlanta. We rented a cabin in Blue Ridge about thirty minutes out of town, up in the mountains. We were so excited about our cabin because we were on the river. 109 […]

FOR TODAY May 3, 2009 Outside my window…the sun is shining. The morning was beautiful and the humidity low. It’s been so hot and humid that we really appreciate days like this. I am thinking…of everything I need to get ready for our trip this week. My husband and I are taking the little ones […]
