Happy Mother’s Day to all you wonderful mothers out there! I hope your families took good care of you today. I know mine did. I just got to spend the whole day with my four kiddos, which is the best gift I could ever ask for, but the cards, pictures, kid-coupons, plants, and “I love [...]
Drive-In Time!!
Yes, folks, it is that time of year again! It is when the air is warm and the drive-in is open! (Actually, the drive-in has been open for about two months, but the weather has been severely confused as to what season we are in. We went from 80 degrees one day to three days [...]
A Year Since Derek Was Hit By A Car
A year ago today, our son was hit by a car, and our lives changed in a very drastic and dramatic way. I had put Ashley down for her afternoon nap, and piled Jason and Derek into the car to go pick up Troy from preschool. Jason didn’t work that day, so he was home [...]
Court Date

Mud-Slinging
Me: ”What do you think you are doing?” Them: ”Going into the bathroom to wash off.” Me: ”No way! You march right back outside and…” I pause. Brilliant. I am now about to march them out into the backyard and squirt them with a hose. Punks. I give in and send them out to play [...]
