Norwegian Stockings, and Three Other Things

1) Show us YOUR socks soon, k? Those are gorgeous.
2) High five, Toby and Leah! Can’t wait to see your tricks…but not the chewing part. I’m sure if Jamie was free to roam the living room, she’d be doing that and worse. She chewed a lamp cord also. I’m just [...]

Alright alright alright!

HEY FAMILY!!! I know I haven’t written in a long time… I’ve been uber-busy. lia sophia, work at Trinity, our clingy, destructive doggies, church, Easter, blah blah blah – everyone’s busy, I know. Some updates:

That picture isn’t mine, but I’ll post some pics of mine soon once I’ve [...]

What’s Up With…Dog Ear Yeast Infections?

How long has it been Lisa? When you and Sonja were here and you discovered that Jamie had infected ears?  Okay, I just checked with my trustee calendar and it’s been 2 1/2 weeks since I started treating her ears. Through researching (thank you Google!) I’ve discovered that many have this same [...]

What’s Up With…Altar Calls?

Some friends invited us to their church for a production of the Passion Story. You know, the last several days leading up to the crucifixion and continuing until He ascended to heaven. I wasn’t super excited about going because it’s quite a drive to get to the church (in Moravia, IA), and I [...]

Important Information about Fifth Disease

HELLO tag surfers! I don’t have Fifth Disease, and I don’t have important information about it, sorry to disappoint you- I just thought it’d be funny to see how much attention this attracts, since apparently fifth disease is a very popular topic.
But seriously, there are so many of you out there who are looking up [...]

Who Showed the Moon Where to Hide ‘Til Evening…

…and who puts the smile in our margin? Have you ever noticed him/her? ——->
(You used to be able to click a link here and go to the actual song, but that link is no longer active.)
Who taught the sun where to stand in the morning?
And Who told the ocean you can only come [...]

God’s Little Chain of Events

If you want to skip over the movie version and get right to the meat of this post, you can go to the __ paragraph. I don’t know which paragraph that is yet because it hasn’t developed yet. I’ll let you know later.
The movie version with all the details follows:

But you’re not hyper!

Dear Gmaudie,
You’re right, I’m definitely not a hyperactive person, and that’s why when my Dr. first said “I think you’re struggling with ADHD” I laughed at him! I said “My mom disciplined me as a child and I was homeschooled, I can’t have ADHD. Dr. Dobson said so!” Or something along those lines.. haha! BUT [...]

The Big Yellow Ball

We changed our clocks this past weekend for Daylight Savings Time which means two things for us: 1) It’s dark out when we wake at 6:45 in the morning; 2) We get to see the sunrise every morning. The sunrise has never stopped seeming miraculous to me. It also reminds me [...]
