Life, Death and the Bond of Friendship
My friend, Jen… the woman who has only missed 4 of my 37 years of existence — lost her dad to his battle with ALS 2 weeks ago… Ugh. The whole experience drove home the blessing I have in this life-long friendship… Jen and I discovered Disneyland together… We pretended to be ballerinas on the [...]
On the Road
I’m out, with spotty internet access… until then… know the 16 hours of driving one way alone, and the thought of driving the same distance back… alone… Has not affected my sanity one bit. This was only 2 hours into it. Of course there’s a story… Until later… Be well. Be sane. One of us [...]

A family adventure: the corn maze
My kids crack me up. My kids also make me cry. I am in a constant state of overwhelm when it comes to my offspring… the greatest of joys and the deepest of frustrations. Our outing to a local corn maze on Saturday was an extended time of joy for me as a mom. I [...]
We went camping this weekend.
I believe this was our 6th annual trip to “Family Camp”. We are blessed to be part of a wonderful group of families who heads to Whidbey Island for a weekend of… well, camping! The kids run wild, as do the parents. The bees are always a bother, the dirt is always on our feet… [...]
No Kidding!
