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 [...]
We Have Lost Pups!
Holy cow! Things are crazy around here. Last night, somewhere around 7pm last night, I looked around and noticed there were no pups anywhere to be seen. I asked the kids where they were, and they looked around and didn’t see them. Now, I know there were there just a little bit before this because [...]

Especially now that we have an escaping dog, it has been quite a challenge to get the kids to close the door from he kitchen to the garage. I am not sure what is so hard about it, but they are seriously challenged by that simple task. It really became a problem when the garage [...]
Funny Kid Quote!
OK…Really quick, I just have to tell you this story. Last night after the bath, I was chatting with the kids about the pups and how they are prone to escape out the front door. I look over into the hallway and I see Echo passed out, lollygagging in dreamland. I offhandedly say to the [...]
