In the “I must be doing something right department”:Thomas (as I prepared Cheerios and strawberries for his breakfast this morning): “Mommy! Are you putting… SUGAR… on my cereal?” Gratuitous baby shot moment… Mommy… I’m not sure what this toy is… Oh look! It’s a cute baby! And in the “we’re desperate for entertainment” department: She … [Read more…]
Like I mentioned in my post yesterday, I had really hit a wall with homeschooling sometime around Christmas (not a big surprise, since I usually start slowing down halfway through the school year, PLUS I had a newborn to add to the mix). I knew I was in big trouble when I realized that I … [Read more…]
Here’s the listing of all the Loveliness Fairs for the beginning of 2008. I always find something to inspire me in my vocation… and hopefully you will too!
And my apologies to those who have been wondering, “Where the heck ARE you?” I’ve been cleaning and organizing (hasn’t everyone?

And often, it’s something wonderful, like getting a really cool present from your Dad (like this Nativity scene, that my Dad made for me this year.

Wishing you all a very blessed and joyous New Year! I will resume blogging tomorrow (Lord willing!)
We had a wonderful time visiting my family at my parents’ home this year. The drive was long (12 hours), but well worth it (thank you, honey!). Since it’s late, I’ll just post some pictures for now. As you can see, my parents had a rather full house… …which made it hectic, but fun. Getting … [Read more…]
