I am so thankful for the direction the Lord lead us last Spring when we realized that we needed help with J2′s education. I didn’t share it at the time, but things got very bad around here in relation to his schooling. He became very angry and discouraged. This lead to a depression that caused [...]
First, Hubs & J3 went back to school on August 11th. Then J2 and I started up again on August 16th. And today, finally, J1 started back to school! After he did his assignments we headed to a new frozen yogurt shop in town – Big Kahuna. It was good but I was very thankful [...]
Today, it’s catch-up day on the blog….all those things I’ve been meaning to share but they aren’t enough for a full blog post: Today Netflix released a new iPod/iPhone app to allow you to watch movies/tv shows from your instant queue! Love this! I almost can’t wait for the next time the boys take over [...]

I need to get myself back under control. It started small. It always does. I’ve started comparing myself to others and, surprise, I come up short. It’s been something I’ve been plagued with since our Seminary days. I find a group of like-minded individuals and I love to spend time with them. But then it [...]
You know what the best Valentine’s day present I received today? Watching J2 (who has severe learning disabilities) playing hangman in church with his friends. Yes, I’d rather he be listening, but I never thought he’d even try to play a game that requires him to spell words! It was super-exciting to me! And, not [...]
When you knead bread you have lots of time to think… (**could be Lost spoilers – Cheryl, this is your only warning! You can’t read this post until Saturday!) I’d like a new table I appreciate that this one is low enough to making kneading the dough easier and is smoother than my tile [...]
