I should probably write at least a little something about the seminar I was so consumed with. Once it was over it seemed that my hands and thoughts were so free I sort of dropped it completely. It did go very well and thank you to all of you who prayed…

Kohls advertised a sale for this past Saturday and since this sale included maternity clothes, I took a little trip that morning and found several things to bring home with me. I hope no one hears me sounding ungrateful for the hand-me-downs and loans t…

I had a productive day yesterday in most respects. I cleaned out the boys closet in their bedroom. I still have the same amount of stuff in there but it is now in labeled boxes and ready to be dealt with as soon as the knowledge of gender of third chil…
