Nathan had a great Valentine’s party today at preschool. The kids enjoyed some homemade popcorn and conversation hearts for treats. Then, they indulged in a great Valentine craft. Nathan made his for his Dad. They also had fun playing a game where they impersonated a particular animal. It was quite…

Glory be, I’m thirty-three!
WOW! What a great birthday I’ve had! After church, mom took the kids and I out to lunch (David was working) at Elephant Bar. They brought me a strawberry sundae as my birthday treat after I had finished my lunch. But, the real treat was actually at church. Mom took…

My mom came into town today to celebrate my birthday with me and of course, see the kiddos. I am so excited that she’s here, even if it’s just for a short visit. Of course the kids got bombarded with goodies (as if it were their birthday) the moment she…

An old favorite makes a comeback.
A few weeks ago when American Gladiators came back, David made it pretty clear he was going to be an avid watcher. I remember watching that show waaay back when and I think it’s fairly entertaning. Ironically, the show comes on each Monday night when I happen to be at…

Blah!
Today has been a totally sick day today. I called in sick from being a mommy, from several work-related meetings I had scheduled, and even from cooking anything today. It started a couple of days ago when I had a slight sore throat but thought nothing of it. Will had…

It was SOOO worth it, even if just for the picture.
Today after picking up N8 from preschool and having lunch, I decided to run my car through the car wash. I mean, it was like sixty-something degrees and sunny, after all, which TOTALLY put me in the mood of driving a clean car with the sunroof open. Nathan had reminded…
