Wordless Wednesday-How I Spent My Xmas $$$

My Wish For Peace

If I was given one wish that could be granted today it would be for a peaceful resolution to this Israeli/Palestinian conflict.

The pictures are absolutely heartbreaking.  I cannot even begin to fathom the history of hatred and violence and all the wrongs done in this battle, or begin to imagine a peaceful solution that has [...]

Kindness

My hope for 2009, personally, to my family, to our nation, to the world.

 
Practicing for this tonight, by putting a cranky, tired girl in a warm bath.  Highly suggested for parent and child.

Super Mama

Fixed the broken rocking chair.
One more point added for things I can do on my own.

Babies.

Am having mixed feelings about babies lately.
Now is that the most crazy, mixed up thing I’ve posted on here ever, maybe?
Why would a newly single mama (p.s. when are you no longer newly single?  someone let me know) be thinking about babies?
I am 36 years old.  I have two beautiful children.  They are no longer [...]

Happy Christmas

Happy Christmas!  Hope you all had a wonderful holiday.  This year rates up there in best Christmas’ ever.  
No pictures.  Camera still is busted and had to pick up a disposable for our Christmas celebrations, so no pictures for a little bit.  Did get a bit of money for Christmas, so about to see if [...]

How am I supposed to snap those pics of my beautiful babies our first Christmas here in our girly home?

Sunday

A little more hectic than our “good day” yesterday.
It was still a good day.  It sleeted all early early morning and the dog took me for a glide down the driveway at 6:30 this morning.  The trees were absolutely beautiful.  At my sisters this afternoon, the ice was melting and the water was streaming down [...]

A Feel Good Day

Slept in a little.  No alarm and a snuggle in bed with the girls this morning was a welcome relief from the five day work week.
Wrapped my girls gifts.  I am so happy with what I made/bought them this year.  While they are not getting as much as in years past, I know they are [...]
