Continued Education

Our son was in the hospital for the last couple of days, getting tested for seizure-like episodes he has been experiencing after some concussions last year. He was hooked up to an EEG with the nodes glued to his scalp for more than 48 hours, in hopes of capturing an episode. We don’t have any... Continue Reading →

What Do You Want?

My guy and I have been doing really well with our healthy lifestyle, we are eating organic and fresh with very little sugar and preservatives, and have learned quickly how to make better choices. We both feel better after only a month, and agree that this is not a fad, but a new way of... Continue Reading →

Just Breathe

How is your stress level these days? Feeling the pinch of way too many things to do and not enough daylight? I have been for a while now. There are ways to combat these anxious feelings, and the simplest and most effective is something you’re already doing right now: breathe. But wait, you’re probably doing... Continue Reading →

Be Still

On Saturday morning our hot water heater died without warning. And took the basement carpet out with it. Our family spent most of the weekend pulling wet carpet and pad up, prying carpet nails out of concrete and choosing our next type of basement flooring.

She was delighted to see that her school had completely vanished and I marveled at how the... Continue Reading →

Balance

It was a slow day at the restaurant yesterday. All was fine until five tables left the store at once, leaving just one couple for me to serve. I took their order and walked away and completely forgot to turn it in to the chef. Just forgot. It wasn’t until I felt like their food... Continue Reading →

What are we going to do? How do I decide? Which college should I choose? Should we have another baby? These are important questions that most of us face at some point in life. We may pray about it and seek Godly counsel but still feel pressured and stressed to be ready with an answer,... Continue Reading →

Dog’s Life

We have a new puppy in our house. Jade is a one year old german shepherd who joined our family about 3 months ago. We were not looking for another pet, but Jade captured our hearts as soon as we saw her, and we made plans to make her ours. Jade is from a rescue... Continue Reading →

Do You See Me?

In tenth grade our daughter decided to become a rugby player. Our sweet, creative, incredibly dramatic daughter who is not terribly athletic wanted to play a violent game that we knew little about. We had some reservations, but went to the team meeting and entertained the idea. Somehow she convinced us that rugby was her... Continue Reading →

Here We Go

My guy and I have started on a new journey to good health. He got some bad news back from his blood work last month, and we are trying to avoid medication. We will be meeting with his doctor later this week, but on our own have been doing a lot of research, experimenting and... Continue Reading →
