We all know that childhood is fleeting…here today and gone tomorrow, but it seems like that flash of time has gotten even shorter. My baby girl turned 8 today. Once upon a time she would still be a little girl, but these days, she is an official tween. What is a tween you might ask? … More Childhood, what childhood?
Turns out that the stupid teen years don’t go away. In reality a wise teenager seems to be an oxymoron, an anomaly; it’s like Big Foot, UFO’s, or the Loch Ness Monster. Some believe it could be true, but no ones ever actually seen it. … More Teenagers Part 2
Several weeks ago I was doing a bit of a project that had me sorting through important memories from my past. What I found to be peculiar is that I can remember what I ate in the formative events in my life as much as I can remember who was there, or what I wore. I … More Food Memories

The south is known for all kinds of things, and not all of them are so lovely. But I tend to be a real fan of the south, and for several good reasons. While the South isn’t really known for Big Hair anymore (praise Jesus), it’s still known for big patterns, big design, big personalities, … More My Southern Ways
My son just turned 12. The twelfth birthday is kind of a big deal. It’s your last year of childhood before your teen years. It’s the year you begin to care about the opposite sex, what you wear, and how you smell (praise Jesus!). So for this 12th year of life, there are a few … More 12 things my son needs to know before he turns 13
A year ago when I started blogging, I dreamed of being raw, honest, and true to myself, and I think I have. I’ve shared my faith and I’ve shared heartache. I’ve tried to show how completely in love with my husband I am, how hard marriage is. I’ve attempted to be real about the immense joys and colossal … More My one year blogging anniversary
I have 3 kids and I work Full Time, and I am 100% sure that no one understands what that really means but other Full Time working moms. Working dads don’t get it and stay at home moms don’t get it (sorry, but you don’t. I was a stay at home mom for a few … More Working full-time and being a mom is real hard
So, I’m going on about a 2 week stress binge and it’s killing me…truly. I can’t even explain why it all hit me the last couple of weeks, but it has. Basically my house is still unfinished (after now officially living there a year since the fire) which is causing me major stress. I know, … More Stress- it makes you old, tired, and fat
The title should actually read I don’t like my husband very much right now, but whatever. I should also say, that this is about love, but not about The Love Dare. If I’m being honest, I haven’t done it since before spring break. I know, I made a promise, I will finish it. But it … More I don’t like my husband very much
