Sunday. I’ve been quite negative lately when it comes to going to church on Sundays. A few things frustrate me, but I learned today that I can’t let it get to me. How did I learn that today? By sitting in the crying room with my boys. Punky was in…

Saturday. I love that day. Why? Hubby takes the kids downstairs or in their room at 7 AM (when Punky knows he can “get up” on a weekend) and plays while Mama gets to catch up on her sleep. I know…you never really catch up on sleep, but dang, it…

Here I sit at the scrapbooking house waiting for my few purchases to download (sorry, Hubby), and I’m just clicking through hundreds of pictures I’ve taken in the past few years. My heart is swelling. I truly am blessed in oh-so-many ways. Taking these weekends a couple of times a…

I went to Punky’s Parent Night tonight, and I couldn’t be prouder of the little man. He’s such a joy, a blessing, and as everyone says, an old soul. Dear Punky, Mama is super proud of you, Buddy! Keep on being YOU! You never cease to amaze me with your…

I started blogging in 2006 or so….I dug back into the archives tonight to see if I had any pictures….but I couldn’t find one. I did however find this post about Punky when he was a little older than Kirby is now……which totally reminded me of this picture I took…
