Yep – it’s official – I am a zombie. Not the skeletal, raggedy-clothed, raised-from-the-dead kind. But more like the sleep-deprived, cranky-baby kind. Little Man has had a rough week. After his ear infection a couple of weeks ago, he was much improved. Last Saturday morning he woke up with a fever. A high fever. Instead… read more »
I have been concerned about my girls lately. Their health is fine – and really, they are doing great in school. They are growing well (other than they are growing TOO FAST for my comfort) and I am amazed by and so thankful for them. Until an ugly attitude rears it’s er, ugly head, and… read more »
I think anyone who reads this can think of at least ONE thing to be thankful for in their life. Just breathing – for most people – is a reason to be thankful. But for anyone who suffers – whether it be a fatal or painful disease, whether it be hunger or poverty, or loss… read more »

I wanted to share these Thanksgiving Goodies with you! Gratitude Printables from My Computer is My Canvas Thanksgiving Centerpiece… read more »
Ohhhh, it’s that time of year. Time to grab a comfy sweater and make yourself a cup of something sweet to warm you up! I love storebought mixes – they’re fast and usually quite tasty. But they can also be VERY expensive and contain LOTS of sugar. Here’s a few ideas for homemade drink mixes… read more »
I am in no way affiliated with FamilyFun.com, but it is ONE of my favorite sites for ideas, suggestions, recipes, and crafts for my family. I have yet to MAKE any crafts, but as I was looking through some of their suggestions, I came across this FREE THANKSGIVING PLANNER. It’s cute – easy to print… read more »
Curly is scheduled for some tests today. She has always had issues with constipation from the day she was born, but we always found a way to manage and get through the difficulty. Now, because of Little Man’s diagnosis & surgery, the GI docs at Nationwide Children’s are concerned that she may have the same… read more »
