Two years ago during the school year, we spent most mornings going through somewhat of a Bible study drawing pictures about the particular story we had read and then discussing it. Dee and Gracie were 4 at the time and … Continue reading

Uncertainty – it is a miserable state to be in! Since last May, when unemployment for us entered into our lives once again, we have been playing the waiting game. Waiting to see if a job opportunity would open up … Continue reading
unabridged parenting (rambling thoughts in an unabridged post)
