My mother bought me a Brian Andreas print just after my son was born, and I found one (above) for my husband’s first father’s day. Take a minute to browse through the storypeople site; you can even send ecards.
Thanks to Simply Victoria, who posted about this site on her blog.

Jesse Tree
Posted in Crafts for Kids, Feasts, Uncategorized on Sep 6th, 2008
I had never heard of a Jesse Tree until today, and now I am seeing it all over the place.
Deb posted about the project that she is a part of.
You can go to Festal Celebrations to view the project.
I thought about trying to do it for this year, but that isn’t going to happen. I [...]
“Money for Jesus” Jar
Posted in Children, Crafts for Kids, Parenting on Sep 5th, 2008
In the comments section of my previous post, Emma asked, “What is the little coin jar for?”
The coin jar is a craft that my son and I made together.
Whenever he finds money, he puts it in his “Money for Jesus” jar (that’s what he named it) and then it is to be taken to [...]
Our Children’s Icon Corner
Posted in Crafts for Kids, Family, Uncategorized on Sep 4th, 2008
We recently acquired a few small icons for the kids’ room. I decided that I wanted to have a little icon corner to put them in. Here is how I made the little display case:
I took the bottom part of a shoe box and cut it into two sections: one about 2/3 of the box [...]
I’m a little late, but I thought this looked like fun (found at Charming the Birds from the Trees).
How long were your labors?
I was induced with both of my kids; once due to preeclampsia and the other because she was past due and I had been having consistent/semi-consistent contractions for a week straight. With my [...]
Between our son’s surgery a few weeks ago and our family vacation, I have been absent from posting and reading for a while now.
Our little man is doing much better- back to normal. His speech is improving as well; the doctor said it may take three to four months for him to be completely caught [...]

He didn’t sleep through the night and ended up sleeping with us, but he woke up in a good mood (he took his pain meds half asleep; so that helped). He was his normal crazy-hyper boyish self for part of the morning until he completely crashed. He is [...]
Another Bad Day…
Posted in Children, Family, Parenting, Prayer on Aug 13th, 2008
Thank you for all the emails and comments on my blog.
Our little guy is still having a hard time. My hubby and I both think that he seems to be getting a little bit worse everyday. He wakes up in the night screaming and has been sleeping with us since Friday night. At the beginning, [...]
The first couple of days home went really well. He was eating well, sleeping well, and playing almost like he normally does. But by Sunday, he had changed.
His change from Saturday afternoon to Monday evening
Starting Saturday night, he was sleeping with us because we would wake up in the night crying. On Sunday [...]
Surgery Went Well!
Posted in Children, Family, Uncategorized on Aug 7th, 2008
The surgery went well this morning and we came home only a few hours afterwards. He had both his tonsils and adenoids removed and is doing really well. The worst part was when we could all hear him screaming down the hallway, but we weren’t allowed to see him yet. Fortunately, as [...]
