“My Superman”

  I started this post in August, 2018. There are many times, I have the idea of what I want to write about but not the words to place with it. My brother, can sing effortlessly. I am one of his biggest fans. So instead of trying to find the words ~ I'll let him... Continue Reading →

Everyone Loves Cake

Me Weekend ~ Me Time

Pitching Mood

As much as I hate to admit it - I am a hoarder of things like all of M's papers. I have totes labeled Preschool, Kindergarten, 1st Grade, 2nd Grade, 3rd Grade.... you get the picture. Middle school took a hit in the paper department since very little - if any - papers were brought... Continue Reading →

Green-Eyed Monster

Jealousy is a very ugly word. For fifteen years, I've put up with someone in a constant state of jealousy. I honestly wonder just how a person can remain in that state day in and day out 24/7. It would have to be absolutely exhausting.  Not only that, but to steal the joy out of special,... Continue Reading →

Uncomfortable Conversation

Last week, I took Miss M to the DMV to update her State ID as she changed her last name a year ago this month (July) to incorporate my maiden name, and to have the same name as me and to have her Pappy's last name as well. Yes, we are those ladies who hyphenate.... Continue Reading →

Cheers to Summer & Hydrangeas

Father’s Day 2.0

I sat down to write about my second Father's Day "without" my Dad when it began to thunder. I am still smiling. Why, you ask? Because if you read my tribute words that I spoke at his service, you know that every time it thunders we say it is THE Paul Williams building mansion sites... Continue Reading →

Wisdom Teeth

Today, Miss M had her wisdom teeth extracted. Every night since booking the appointment, I have awoke in the middle of the night thinking about it. By the Grace of God, she is a healthy child. She's only had to have blood drawn once. So today, I worried how she would handle the IV, the... Continue Reading →
