A soul that walks on water leaves no footprints, but will make waves."
Owen and I sat on the front steps this morning as Kris drove out of the neighborhood and off to work. I like to take him out there or to a window to wave goodbye to daddy for the day. After Kris was out of sight we stayed there for a little while to en…
We had Owen’s nine month pictures taken today. I’m a little disappointed in his behavior. He was not a bad little boy…he was just clingy and wouldn’t cooperate with the photographer very well. He would literally turn his back to her as much as possi…
Tonight the doorbell will ring to announce the coming of friends. I so enjoy hosting our “Sewing Party”. We won’t be a big crowd tonight but enough for good conversation. It’s seafood night. We usually pick some sort of theme for our dinner and each…

I always try to apply Scripture, and I always try to gain a…
Well, we are here. We stole about quietly moving boxes from one house to another never letting on to the family in Florida that we were not going to be where they expected us to be when they arrived for their visit. They moaned that we would not have e…
Owen is wearing his first Band-Aid. He never complained and I don’t know how long he had been going around with a sliver in his left hand, but there it was this afternoon with a little puffy red circle around it. He probably got it while crawling aroun…
