Camping
This coming weekend is the bi-yearly Kids Retreat at Earthsprings. My home away from home, it’s always a lot of fun for me to take the boys. This weekend will be especially fun and adventurous because we are going to set up our tent and camp! We are really looking forward to [...]
Things that Make Me Happy About Being a Momma Lately
Forest saw me taking out a can of refried beans and ran over saying “me recycle can”. The boys love taking out the recycling to the big trash bin in the garage. Talk about some good imprinting.
Sitting at the dinner table and I over hear Forest on the other side of [...]
Beaters
We’ve been baking a lot, the boys LOVE to bake and say the word very well. Last week the boys had their first opportunity to “lick the beaters”, a time held tradition of childhood. At least it was a big part of mine.

Rest In Peace, OE
At our home away from home, Earthsprings, resided an incredible dog named O.E. He was a fine medicine dog who brought intense love and compassion to all the visitors as well as kept a close guard. He was so compassionate he never kept the deer out of the garden. He suffered over [...]

Sing a Song
I was getting the boys dressed this morning and singing the Sesame Street song, “Sing”. I used to LOVE that song as a child. I remember how happy it made me feel even then. The first kids compilation of music we bought for the boys had that song on it and I [...]
Social
I tried twitter and it was interesting and fun for awhile but Facebook has taken over as my “social media outlet”. As a person interested in and involved in technology I value the purpose and opportunity of twitter. As a stay at home mom, I just didn’t find the value for my personal [...]
To Remember about 25 Months
Forest calls me “Mommy-Momma” Always both names, run together. It’s cute.
The boys are suddenly becoming afraid of things. The dark. Bugs. Climbing. I suppose it’s some kind of biological safety mechanism but it makes me sad. We now leave on a much brighter night light and talk about [...]
Catching Up
I was pretty good at keeping up this blog over the past few years, but lately I’ve been slacking. I don’t think it’s going to get better, I expect one post a week to become more of the norm. I think I’ve mentioned this a few times in the past few months as [...]
