Life’s Little Moments

It seems odd to do a week in review "highlights" post on Thursday, but it really is the day that I get an extra minute or two to look back, so here goes. Kicking Kid While the days leading up to it were extremely unorganized, Saturday morning Andrew got to play soccer. It was quite … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →

Friday Photo Flashback

Yesterday, I blogged about my daughter's first day of Preschool. She is having so much fun there. She is making friends and sharing stories about her day, which has been awesome to listen to. One thing I didn't do was get a picture of her and I together. She was probably "pictured out" by the … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback →

Another Milestone

It's going to be hard going back to work today.  I took a couple extra days off because Ella started Preschool.  Friday, the teachers did a home visit at our house. She was excited to meet them. It was a half hour visit to answer questions about her likes and dislikes and to get to … Continue reading Another Milestone →

Friday Photo Flashback

I'm not trying to rush into Fall, because Lord knows most of us want to enjoy what is left of Summer! This is that time of year when you start seeing the posts about summer not being over and to stop talking about pumpkin spice lattes! I was looking for a specific photo this week … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback →

Life’s Little Moments

Good Mood This week, Andrew woke up in a particularly good mood. He was talkative, silly, and a very joyful boy. My wife, Sam, said to him, "You're in a really good mood today!" He looked at her and said, "That's because I didn't wake up with my mean eyebrows!" I'm not sure where he … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments →

Dressing Up

You may remember a week or so ago that my wife bought a bunch of costumes for the kids to dress up in. Can I tell you that this has been so much fun for them, especially on rainy days. A few more costumes have been added since the original post, but what I love … Continue reading Dressing Up →

A Purr-plexing Cat-astrophe?

So a co-worker came in last week and sat down next to me. "Keith, do you want another kitty?" Without any hesitation whatsoever I gave her a firm, "No!" She showed me a picture of four kittens who had been abandoned at a relative's house and said they were trying to find them homes. I … Continue reading A Purr-plexing Cat-astrophe? →

Bestie Birthday Wish

While she has been mentioned before in a few blogs, I have one friend who has never had one completely devoted to her. Today, on her birthday, I want to rectify that. As we get older, memories tend to fade. Details can get lost. We may remember things a bit differently than they actual happened. … Continue reading Bestie Birthday Wish →

Fun At The County Fair

I got a call last Friday from my friend Margaret. She told me that the county fair was going on up by her and that Saturday was the last day. She asked if maybe we'd like to go. My wife had to work that night, so she was unable to go, but the kids and … Continue reading Fun At The County Fair →
