Mothering Emma Kate and Jack…
Yesterday began an uneventful day. We were hanging out, alternating between work and Christmas decorating, when our neighbor, Debbie, stopped by. She quickly told us that there were available seats at the afternoon Hannah Montana show in Greensboro. Chris jumped online and purchased a couple of tickets, and we were off! Debbie, Danielle, Emma, and [...]

He is more confident, stronger, and better adjusted in an instructor-led, social setting. He does an awesome forward roll, is great on the balance beam, and loves [...]

The kids and I are enjoying this beautiful fall day outside. (And, I am apparently using blogging as a way to procrastinate the work I should be doing today!).
A big “hola” to Mom and Malinda who are in Mexico this week!

My kids are still recovering from the time change, so Jack is ready to nap by 10am each morning! This worked perfectly this morning as Miss Jo invited us to join them at the park for some play time before Emma Kate’s school pick-up. After an early nap, Jack and I headed to the park. [...]

After quite an eventful year, my cousin Sara celebrated her birthday with family last Saturday night. It was nice to have everyone together. Granddaddy Jack and my uncle John provided musical entertainment, the kids played, and good food was shared by all. I learned that cousin Terry tried tofu (yay!), my cousin Tommy does something [...]

Last night, great fun was had by all as we enjoyed sweet treats, haunted houses, and time with friends. The kids circled the block trick-or-treating, while Chris dazzled the neighbors with his super cool Billy Ray Cyrus look. Miss Jo and Fletcher joined us for trick-or-treating and our neighbor, Miss Debbie, hosted a holiday get-together [...]
