Feeling Sad

Tomorrow is the start of a VERY long week.  Steve leaves at 9:30 AM for the airport.  Please send good thoughts and prayers my way because if this week is anything like the last one in September, I’m TOAST!  At least this time I have some help coming in Thurs/Fri, plus my parents this weekend.  [...]

Oh my Goodness!

You know there are many days that Steve and I wonder why everyone gives us these pitiful eyes when we tell them about our kids.  Today doesn’t happen to be one of them. 
Abby has a horrible habit, one that many children with autism exhibit at some point or another.  Abby’s doesn’t seem to be a phase, it [...]

I’m So Blessed

You know, the more I think about my children, I stand even more firmly on the knowledge that I am very very blessed.  What brings on this post you might ask….well, my kids actually ASK to go to bed.  Abby has been asking for a long time, Logan will even ask on occasion ask, but today for [...]

New Blog

For those of you interested in following a really boring life-story, I’ve started a new blog talking about my weightloss journey, a way for me to feel like I’m being held accountable.  I figure it’s about time for me to get serious about this again, and lose it all this time and not gain it back!!  I [...]

Gearing Up

The time has come for Steve to journey to Vancouver again.  He leaves on Saturday morning.  I’m already dreading the week, and it hasn’t even started yet!!  The last time was pretty tough with kids getting up way early (like 1 AM), dealing with all 4 of them, and the sleep deprivation that came because I [...]

Always the Way!

Steve and I had a great Friday/Saturday.  We spent the night in Chesley, at my parents house.  They took us out for supper, we watched a couple of movies, and even slept in on Saturday morning!  It was pretty awesome.  Steve spent Saturday morning reading by the fireplace and while I went shopping with my [...]

Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary Hon!
Here’s to 8 years of love, happiness, and life experience.  And a prayer that the next 8 (and beyond) be filled with the same love, happiness and life experience.  It’s been a great ride so far, I’m not usually one for rollercoaster rides, but I’ll make an exception just [...]

On the Eve…

Well, eight years ago we were at the church realizing that there was a BIG problem.  I still remember doing some of the preliminary signing of the documents and looking very puzzled, turning to Tony and saying “Ummm, Tony, I’m the bride!”.  I know I’m not overly girly, but I can guarantee that I’m NOT [...]

Beyond a Dream

I thought I would give a shameless plug for our travel agents, Dave and Lil Smith.  They have gone above and beyond for all of our travel needs!  The best part, we didn’t have to leave the comfort of our home to book our trips!  So if you’re looking to go on vacation, they are [...]

Number 3

Just a few more posts now…however will you survive without it??
Again we find ourselves on a Sunday, so I will admit that I love the way you carry yourself when you are leading the Sunday Service.  While lots has been said about your singing (or lack there of!), I speak more of the flow of [...]
