My Birthday 2010

I want to thank everyone for the birthday wishes.  I really did have a great day.  Now with four children I have come to understand that they are not going to become selfless little angels just because it is the anniversary of…well…anything! I have recently gotten in touch with a couple that I went to… [continue reading]

Get with it Mom

I was lugging in a trunk load of groceries. The kids had been so well behaved on this occasion that my mind was elsewhere. On our first trip into the house with our bags, Grace ran ahead and hid by the door. This is the usual game we play. She jumped out and said, “Raaaa!”… [continue reading]

Laboring Latin

Okay I confess.  I am really struggling with Latin!  I am a tutor for a Classical Conversations Community.  Translated that’s a co-op where we all use the same classical curriculum and I am called a tutor rather than teacher because I am not necessarily a master in any of the subjects.  Rather I am presenting… [continue reading]

Happy Birthday to Me

Fourteen years ago today and only four weeks after I met Jason, the man who would become my husband, he showed up on my doorstep with flowers and took me out for my birthday. We went to the Olive Garden, still a favorite of mine, and we had a very enjoyable time. The only problem… [continue reading]

The Bad-Mouthing Chapel Speaker

My senior year of college, the long time president of the school retired, and it was the first year of the new administration.  After chapel one day, the guest chapel speaker joined our table for lunch.  We exchanged greetings, and then to my amazement he started bad-mouthing our former president.  He didn’t just say one… [continue reading]

Marriage

The other day Jason and I were talking about our dating relationship versus our marriage relationship.  I told him that marriage was quite a shocker for me because I expected him to be just as interested in my views, desires, and wishes as when we dated and…uh…he wasn’t.  🙂  He didn’t really say much after… [continue reading]

My Most Embarrassing Moment

I seem to have a special talent for embarrassing myself on a regular basis, but the most embarrassing thing in my entire life happened when I was in high school. The events of the whole day led up to the worst moment I can remember. It all started on spring choir tour my sophomore year…. [continue reading]

Clang, Clang, Clang

Jason and I were at a nice, candle-lit restaurant enjoying the quiet and the food – in that order. When all of the sudden I heard this loud clang, clang, clang. It sounded like it came from underneath our own table. I looked up at Jason, who sat there eating normally, and then I looked… [continue reading]

Go Big Red Party 2010

My husband and I met in Nebraska through connections at the University of Nebraska, so we are big Husker fans!  One of our first dates was to a Husker game.  We have such great memories of our time there.  We want to grow little Husker fans as well.  So today for the first televised game… [continue reading]

Adam’s Cousin?

This was a conversation at lunch – never a dull moment. Faith: Why don’t snakes have legs? Me: Well after the serpent tempted Eve in the Garden, God cursed the snakes to crawl on their belly. Grace (age 4):  First there was only Adam in the garden. Then it was Adam and his cousin.  Then… [continue reading]
