Here’s My New Website

In the business world, an unveiling of any product should be when the product is complete. It should have all the glitches solved and there shouldn’t be any safety issues. Well, I’m not in the business world. I’m in my motherhood world of messy situations, half-baked stuff and too many dust bunnies. So…with that introduction, […]

Falling Apart Some Days?

Falling Apart Some Days?

As I sat in the hospital waiting room, my mind swirled with questions like: will she be able to hear again? Does she have to wear hearing aids forever? What will we do for pain? How are the other kids doing at home? How should I plan the rest of my week? etc. etc. I […]

Learning Something New

Learning Something New

I’m not going to worry about perfection today because sometimes other people’s perfection can be hard on us. I don’t know about you but still working on the comparison thing. And when I’m in a class, I seem to feel inadquate. So… I’m working on choosing to feel like an apprentice instead. (wouldn’t you kill […]

Why Sheepies?

When I started the blog, I purposely didn’t write about my faith because as I shared before, it’s going through a metamorphosis. For a while it was easy to sit back and rely on the verses I knew and rely on my small theology but I felt like a fake. I’m so worried about doing […]

Just Perfect

On a rainy day in the NW, what could be better than sitting on the couch with sleeping youngest child, oldest playing awful video games in room next door, one off to work, music in middle child’s room, and the other one…well I don’t know where that child is. And with no goal in mind […]
