Graduation!!! That Great 'right of passage' into 'your life is your own'! CONGRATULATIONS to Isaac, our oldest child and only son!!!! We are so immensely PROUD of Isaac as the first thing he has chosen to do with that life of independence is to serve a 2 year mission for our church. His call arrived just over a month ago and in another few days he will be entering the missionary training center Continue Reading
Refreshment!
It's been a rough few nights (I don't know how many exactly) with teens I want to talk to as they come in from work or play in the late night hour, and babies to get up to in the earliest hours of the morning, a lot on my mind to keep me from dozing right off at night lately and a lot to do which keeps me working as much of the day that I can. Today I had left the babies for an hour with my Continue Reading
Becoming ‘REAL’
Happiest Birthday EVER to our Zoie Grace this past weekend!!! Turning 7. Just beginning the road to real! So I've been struggling a little bit with 'real' lately, any of you out there doing the same?

Isaac, president of the choir, decided to live it up, and off he went in his new grey suit with blue pinstripe shirt and bright magenta bow Continue Reading
Mother’s Day extended…
My heart is so full as I write this! I would love to fill yours up too! It's SO HAPPY! There are MANY challenges to parenting, many exclusive to mothering, we are ALL familiar with that. And then there are many MORE rewards, many greater than we could even imagine!! (Sometimes we lose sight of that.) My kids have been stuck on a song from their last choir concert. It wasn't a favorite Continue Reading
Being Mother! (Happy Mother’s Day Friends!)
I believe each woman has the meaning of mother written in her heart. It comes with her at birth, lasts through life, and if she answers well to that call is her glory as she passes on to eternity! I have seen this 'mother' nature come with my girls at birth. My twins Emily and Anna would care for at least 7 or more baby dolls in their play: dressing them, feeding them, loading them up in doll Continue Reading
