Mom strikes again

You know how I told you last week that Little Jason was so excited to have the same preschool teachers as last year?  Yeah, well, that’s interesting.  I took him the second week and dropped him off.  He was equally excited.  I was merrily doing my shopping when the phone rang.  “Oh no, I hope… [continue reading]

Adopt a Grandparent

Our boarding high school was associated with a retirement center for elderly missionaries.  When the opportunity became available to adopt a grandparent I happily volunteered.  I’ve always loved people of all ages.  It sounded like fun. Oh man.  From the time I met the couple it was obvious.  The man loved me.  The woman did… [continue reading]

Meeting Hank the Cow Dog

It was day two of the THSC Convention and Family Conference.  After a full day of sessions, we were excited to see John R Erickson, the author of the Hank the Cow Dog books, in concert. We had gone out to eat and thought we left plenty of time to get back to the concert, but… [continue reading]

Embarrassing Moments

Jason and I had been dating for a couple of months when one evening he went with me to the school where I worked (I taught Spanish at a small Christian school and I was close to a lot of the kids.) so that I could finish preparing my lesson plans for the following day…. [continue reading]

Awkward Moments

I wanted to get out of the house for Memorial Day.  My niece Andrea has been staying with me for about two weeks.  Andrea and my sister Miriam and her little boy all joined us at the park.  We were able to visit a little while all the kids played.  When everyone began getting hungry… [continue reading]

This sermon is for you!

My husband and I were sitting in church a couple of years ago.  I don’t remember what the sermon was about, but the pastor gave an example of a mother that didn’t show love for her children.  With a jerk my husband craned his head my direction.  My jaw hit my chest as I stared… [continue reading]

Trouble with Biblical Costumes

Fail!  I fail as a mom.  I am not crafty.  I do not sew.  And I cannot even safety pin!  My children had their spring program at the one day a week school they attend for homeschoolers.  I was supposed to provide them with Biblical costumes.  Me?  Seriously?  There is no where to buy costumes… [continue reading]

I Say Embarrassing Things

Our family pastor had just given a really convicting message on parenting.  I walked by him afterward and asked, “Have you been spying at our house again?”  He looked at me as if I’d lost my mind.  I don’t think he said anything.  It sounded like a completely normal thing to say BEFORE it came… [continue reading]

Not as smart as you think you are

Bobby has been teething and was extra fussy. Finally, I sat down in the rocking chair with him and picked up the Wiimote. I found the Connect Four game. Hmm I used to like this when I was little. I didn’t think it would be too hard to play while I held the baby. I… [continue reading]
