Meaningful Conversations

Do you remember when you and your spouse could talk about things?  You know, talk about things without being interrupted.  When your discussions revolved around something else besides your children?  Yeah, I barely remember that too…

Family Game Night

Do you like to play board games with your family?  It always sounds like such a fun idea.  Mom, Dad, and the kids all huddled around the game.  Laughter fills the air!  Yeah…that’s not exactly how it happens around here!

Spring Fashion

Do you have a pet?  We have a dog – a cute and pudgy beagle.  She is such a sweet dog.  One problem – no one told me that beagles SHED.  They shed a lot!  Who knew?

Parental Medals

Have you ever seen those cool medals people get when they run races?  I think parents should get medals for all the work we do.  Don’t you feel under-appreciated for what you do?  I do!  Well, maybe it’s just me, but I would love to get a medal or two…

Relaxing Trips

Do you ever take weekend day trips with the family?  We decided to drive to a state park to go hiking and have a picnic.  Dreams of laughter, fun, and relaxation swirled through my head!  But, they were merely dreams.  Reality is always different.

Paradox of Emotions

Well, I guess I am due for a sappy post – so here it is!  My 6 year old son just lost his first tooth yesterday.  Certainly a milestone!  He was so excited.  I was happy for him, but a little sad inside too.  After all, his baby tooth smile would never be the same.  ** Cue the parental tears **  There are just some things that are happy and sad at the same time…
