Did you ever read The Five Love Languages? My husband and I did a small group with this book and it was very enlightening to say the least. The concept is that everyone “speaks” and “responds” in love languages. When your spouse doesn’t “speak” that same language your “love tank” can get empty and anger, [...]

I didn’t get to post my Sunday recap yesterday. It was my lil’ bro’s birthday. We went to a Japanese steakhouse (yum!) and then during Lydia’s nap, I read and just didn’t get online (gasp!). Last night was our neighborhood Bible Study. Les and I gave our little testimony/story. So, we were famous.
Yesterday was a [...]

Jason. He’s my little brother. Well, little in that he turns 27 today! He’s one of the most talented people I know. He might be the most talented one, actually. I’ve always said any talent I have, Jason has it above and beyond me plus about 5 extra talents. He’s a great musician, a performer, [...]

At the end of our wedding, we did a receiving line. We lined up outside the church doors and let everyone walk by us and shake our hand. One man from my church, who had like 8 kids shook my hand and said, “I’m giving you the fertility handshake.” And I said, “Oh no you [...]

Everything is all right with the world. My dishwasher is ready to run. My microwave is humming along with lunch. Lydia is asleep. My new Vera Bradley wallet is filled (not with money, but with my stuff). I’ve cleaned the bathrooms and picked up Lydia’s toys. I walked this morning. I gave Lydia a bath.
And [...]

I’m so glad I get to see you with Lydia, Daddy.
I just imagine when you kiss her and cuddle her that you did the same for me.
I can see the [...]

*whew* I just looked through all my pictures. There’s no way I can show you everything I want. There’s no way you’re going to want to look at everything I have. But I’ll give you a few and then try to upload some to my flickr for the really bored interested.
When we got to the [...]

I bought a Sunday paper today because…well, I wanted to check out the coupons for Memorial Day. How sick is that? A day to honor the millions of men and women who have given their lives for our country and I’m checking out who’s having the best sale on swimsuits.
So, after I hit the coupon [...]

Today I took Lydia to the park. I walked 1.25 miles (I’ve got to fit into a bathing suit in less than a month!). Then Lydia and I played at the playground. There were a lot of kids there and most of them had matching shirts. Finally, I figured out they were having a Preschool [...]
