“Today is Thanksgiving!” Written and illustrated by P. K. Hallinan. This is a sweet poem for children as well as adults. His illustrations remind me of Precious Moments figurines.
Enjoy, and Happy Thanksgiving!
Today is Thanksgiving, and an icicle breeze nips at your window and whips up the leaves.
Ah, what a morning! The cold [...]

Pecan Pie

This recipe has been in my family for three generations. My boys make the fourth. Years ago my great-aunt found the recipe in an old cookbook. It has always been one of my favorites because unlike some pecan pies that are too sweet, this is just perfect.
Pie crust has never been one of [...]

The hot genre right now in young adult literature is ‘Vampire Romance.’ Unless you have been living on a deserted island for the past three years, I’m not sure how you could not have heard of the books Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. Written by Stephenie Meyers, Twilight is about a teenage [...]

Do Narcissists really forget you?
Sadly.
Yes.
If the narcissist was in the same room with me, there would not be a flicker of recognition on his face….he has the “dead to me” concept down to an art form.
Six months ago, we were in the same room…less than 12 inches away from each other…breathing the same [...]

Cleaning his room is not something that Sam excels in. Math? Yes. Science? Most definitely. But picking up his room? Absolutely not. Normally one must kick a path through his room to get to the other side. If you have a similar creature in your house, I have the solution for you…In One word….IKEA. [...]

I knew that the day had to come eventually. The tradition that Sam and I have when I drop him off at school is in jeapardy…he’s nearly 12 and would be mortified if anyone saw our secret handshake.
When he was in kindergarten and 1st grade I would walk in him into school. Starting in 2nd [...]

Post updated on 12/12/2008….because I realized I have so much more to say on this matter…
Sometimes I get my best ideas for a post by using the search engine terms. One of my friends pointed this part of the dashboard out to me when I first started blogging. She said, “Look to see the search engine phrases people use [...]
A Simple Prayer

We started teaching the boys to pray when they were very young. We taught them to say the blessing over meals and at night before bed…..& sometimes in the morning….”Help me to be a good boy and not make mama’s hair turn any whiter.”
When Tim, Matt and Pete said the blessings before meals, their [...]

After suffering from migraines for several months now, I finally went to see my chiropractor.
