To do:


I get a kick out of how type A Abbie is.  She has to have EVERYTHING planned to a "T".  When she wakes up each day, she has to know exactly what is going to happen in the day.   I worry, at times, that Isaac is going to struggle being a leader.  Abbie loves to lead.  As you can tell...she is not her mother's daughter. ...

Rain on a Pumpkin....


I can add this to the list of things that make me feel....aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh. I don't have a pumpkin outside, but it did rain a lovely, fall rain last night.  The world around me seems to be quietly whispering, "Fall is coming!" Happy Happy!...

Ickies=Ickies


At first, I thought I would write about how horrible it is to have the flu/cold on Labor Day weekend.  Then, I realized that there has to be something of charm and grace in the ickies.  Right? 1.  You get to stay in PJ's and no one cares. 2.  You can take a nice long shower and not feel guilty that you are in longer for the normal 5 min.  Afterall, you are clearing your sinuses!!! 3.  You get caught up on all your favorite tv shows. 4.  You now know where everyone...
