Our Year In Review

December 30, 2011

Reflecting back on 2011, my little band of four was blessed beyond measure. Here’s a look at our year…. in pictures!

Everyday Is Payday

October 21, 2011

Before we got pregnant (and by we, I totally mean ME, except that it was a decision we made together), McDaddy and I decided that I would quit work once our baby was born. It was an easy decision, still, I knew it would take some getting used to. When I worked at the jail, I shared an office [...]

His Hands

July 26, 2011

His hand rests comfortably on the back of the church pew. Carefully, I slide my hand under his and our fingers become a tangled mess as they have done thousands of times. My hand is happy there. As I run my thumb along the the edge of his thumb I think back to all of the times that those hands [...]

The Way They Play

July 18, 2011

Here’s a little tale about some big boys, And the fun they have with their big Jeeps toys. They like to offroad and they love their Jeeps, I must admit they are cool even though I call them heaps.

June 19, 2011

It’s Just What We Do

June 16, 2011

When McDaddy and I first got married, we both had eight hour jobs that brought us back together each evening at 4:30 PM, with the exception of the two weeks each year he was away for military service, and an out-of-town training session once or twice a year.

Long and Random

March 15, 2011

The list of stuff I learned this week is long and random. You know, kind of like every post I do around here. Long. And random. I will try to keep the commentary to a minimum, but you know that usually doesn’t go well. I am watching The Bachelor, but only because Emily is from [...]
