I learned the truth about the tooth fairy many years ago. At some point I realized that it was physically and even mythically impossible for one fairy to not only know which children had lost teeth on any given night, but to be able to get to all those pillows and trade shiny quarters [...]

BRF: 2 Corinthians

It’s been a full couple of weeks here, and although I sat down several times to read this book, I don’t think I ever made it through the designated portion for the week. Several attempts does mean that I read the first chapter for each week a few times, so I did learn a [...]
2007: The year of the garden
Posted in Uncategorized on June 27, 2007 | 6 Comments »
For years now I’ve had a little saying that I start repeating every February in the hopes that it will come true. It goes like this:
“This is the year. I feel it in my bones. This is the year that my garden is going to be beautiful.”
Most of the fun is in [...]
It’s human today.

Well, everyone has been complaining about how cold it is, will summer ever come, blah blah blah, and quite frankly, I’ve been okay with the “cold” weather. Yesterday was perfect summer weather if you ask me, but today is very human (that’s dyslexic for humid).

A couple months back when I was sick with a doozy of a sinus infection, a kind friend brought us a big pot of piping hot mashed potatoes. (Poe-tay-toes! Boil ‘em, mash ‘em, stick ‘em in a stew!) I told her she couldn’t have brought them to a more appreciative crew ~ [...]

Hope deferred makes the heart sick…
Proverbs 13:12a
When our oldest was around three years old, she would describe a disappointing event as “not the day I thought it was”.
As you know from my last post, we had exciting MIRL plans which on Friday seemed destined to be as everything fell smoothly into place. Martha was [...]
The problem with me

I must admit that I chuckled when I read Jenn’s post about turning 30. Not because turning 30 is a laughing matter. It most certainly is not.
(Please bear with me. Overtiredness is taking over.)
She said that passing such a milestone made her stop and look back, and that could be a good [...]

We’ve been expecting the u-picks to be open any day now, and it seems our strawberry season is a couple of weeks late this year. I must tell you that while I’m thrilled for the opportunity for my kids to work, I get a little overwhelmed by it all and the thoughts of strawberry [...]
