I was gone to Layton, Utah, for Mother’s Day weekend for a special occasion. My dad’s siblings had planned a surprise 90th birthday celebration/Mother’s Day commemoration for their mother, my only living grandparent. The highlight was to be that all seven siblings would come together (which hasn’t happened in about 20 years, I […]
So, after recently posting about living without fear, crime and tragedy hits our quiet little country lane last night. Two neighbors, four and five houses away from us, respectively, apparently have had difficulties with each other; mainly, the fifth neighbor toward the fourth neighbor (the fifth neighbor having a history of this type of […]
Christine over at Thinking Things Through wrote a post about how she started to realize that she was still being parent-vested (or motivated) versus trusting that what emanates from within the child will be worthy of the time and space necessary for the process to evolve into what we are so conditioned to strive for: […]
I’ve done this before, but I saw it over at Throwing Marshmallows. I have a feeling I’m different every time. (Yep, see this post.) What’s interesting as I answered the questions is that I could recognize how my children changed me. For instance, I definitely value my alone time after being a […]
My post is up at Life Without School titled Success or Failure? It continues my story about my son’s decision about his relationship with formal academics as well as his path to adulthood and how that would look. This is where it was supposed to end “happily ever after”, but as he has done all […]

Yeah! My post is up at Life Without School entitled “Bookworms”. When I wrote it a few weeks ago, it just flowed off my fingertips. It’s my preface musings before I want to write a post that delves a little bit more into the reading world of my children. But, I wanted this posted […]
It’s my hubby and I’s anniversary today, and we both forgot . . . LOL! When I posted the previous post, I saw the date, and went, oh my gosh! and looked over at my hubby, who is on the other computer across from me, and I stated, “It’s our anniversary today!” He went, “Oops!”
Well, […]
There is so much going on for me to keep my nose above the water with . . . too much to explain to everyone. Basically, it is the nitty gritty of getting interventions going for each of my three boys with special needs, and the day to day workings and needs of seven children.
Anyway, […]
Since I brought up Rosetta Stone on my recent meme, and then I saw a comment on it at Throwing Marshmallows, I thought I would bring up the special I received in the mail. Since I said I wanted to get it for a couple of my children, but the price is so big, I […]
