Ralph Waldo Emerson was a smart man. And, he must be watching me from the other side. “Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it […]
Found
I tried not to think about it when I woke up AGAIN at 5 am this morning. But, the tears started coming again, and I left my room again. I went into the other room and cried like a baby and said another prayer. I’ve been saying lots of prayers lately. This time was different […]
Lost
I woke up at 5 am this morning and started to cry. I remembered. I got out of bed and left the room so I could sob and not wake my husband up. I then went back in after gaining a little composure and grabbed my work out clothes. Might as well get the workout […]
Anything Can Happen Child. Anything Can Be.
You know how to wake a sleeping baby or get a 4 year old to stop watching TV? Start a blog post. We’ll see if my little guy is awake before I hit publish. Today is a rainy day. And, it’s fogging my brain up. I was trying to think of a blog post I […]
Old School
When I saw the blog hop over at The Waiting was about old school photos, well, I couldn’t resist. I had just finished putting the $20 into an envelope to send to school with my 2nd grader for her school pictures tomorrow. I hate forking over that money before I actually see the photo, but […]

As I scroll through my news feed on Facebook, I am reminded of that horrible day as Bob the Builder blares in the background. I see pictures of horror, and I see simple statements from friends like, “never forget”. I see […]
Measuring Success
I read this post today that really spoke to me. I go back and forth about this blog. Some days, I love it, and it is my passion. Other days, I feel like, “Why am I doing this?” And, somewhere in between, I find myself with little thoughts like, “You aren’t good enough. You will […]
Deep Breaths
So, a while ago, I was in a stressful situation. I can’t exactly remember what was going on, but I was stressed. Big time. My anxiety levels were at an all time high, and I felt like I was going to freak out at any moment. There was probably a kid throwing up, or something. […]
Invisible Lines For Now
It was about sixth grade when I realized that there were “popular” kids. I’m sure I had seen some evidence before then, but I distinctly remember realizing in the sixth grade that I had been invited to a birthday party of a popular girl, and maybe, just maybe, I was in with the cool crowd. […]
