I’m not disciplined at it, but I’m striving to be, more and more everyday. Some mornings life gets away from me. Breakfast preparations, the dishes. The 2-year-molars waking the older one early. The 4 night wakings by the 7 week-old causing a sleepy Mama who can’t pull herself from the covers before 6:30 AM. But… Continue reading Quiet-Time Basket
My dear boy, now a smidge over one year, has been testing his strength lately.

Tomorrow I’m headed shopping in Sanlucar with a group of friends, Sunday is Chapel and a Base-wide BBQ and hubby is working crazy night shifts starting tomorrow for a… Continue reading Busy Weekend
This is the season to recount and appreciate all we have been given. A lot has happened in the past few months to make me see all the beauty and gifts surrounding me. With the passing of my dear friend, Sara, I have come to realize that as each day is not promised to us… Continue reading 1000 Gifts
