My Own Toy Story

Over the past few months, my sister and I have been furiously cleaning and purging mom’s house to get it ready to sell. Not only that, Nancy stayed with mom for more than a week to help get her packed up to move. What’s left in the house now is nothing short of a miracle. […]

Food Allergies

It’s been so long since I’ve posted, I almost feel like ignoring that fact and just jumping in and doing this post.  So that’s what I’m going to do. We’ve been trying to figure out what to do with sweet little Camren around here.  He had a reaction to a milk based formula when he […]

Remembering Glenn

There were only six years between me and Glenn.  But somehow he always seemed so much older.  He had different friends, different interests, and had moved ahead of me in the growing up years so quickly.  As I reflect back over those years, I remember… He played with cool toys like legos and lincoln logs.  […]

Wow, it’s June already

I can’t believe that summer is now upon us.  I also cannot believe how neglectful I’ve been to post anything here.  My apologies to those of you that actually come by to visit. We’ve been cruising right along through our weeks with the usual craziness.  We had a visit from grandma and grandpa and Aunt […]

Chevy

Last week on my drive back home from  some errands, I spotted a tiny car pulling out of the lot at the super market. Normally I don’t pay much attention to specific makes or models of cars. But I admit, this one caught my eye for a couple of reasons. First, it was a little […]
