A little lunch

Today was a lovely day! John left early to go to work- but he had to be there until very late this evening. So, he came home for a little while in the middle.  We decided to have lunch together. I think this worked out better than when he is home in the mornings. (Of [...]

Reflections

This evening as I stood with Genevieve at the bathroom sink I looked up to see her stretching her little neck all the way up so that she could see her reflection in the mirror. When she finally got a glimpse of herself, Genevieve’s face lit up and her little cheeks puffed out as she [...]

A Busy Day

Today was a busy day for Genevieve. We took a ride to the mall with Nana and Tita. Genevieve actually stayed in her stroller for quite awhile and let us shop. That was a nice surprise.

We stopped for lunch at the Cheesecake Factory. Genevieve sat pretty nicely in the booster seat. It was much better [...]

Shopping Around

After being stuck in the house all week because of the cold, Genevieve and I were ready to get out. Luckily the temperature reached a balmy 42 degrees today! We took advantage of that and took a little trip to Barnes and Noble. Genevieve had a ball, but unfortunately all I could capture was her [...]

But she looks do darn cute doing it! Doesn’t she?

Future Cookie Monster?

John has become blissfully domesticated! This afternoon I stepped into the kitchen to find him standing at the mixer making cookies. Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. Baking is right up John’s alley. There are tools (power tools) and precise measurements involved. He even knew how to level the measuring cups and spoons! The cookies came [...]

Read the Bible

CBN has a read through the Bible in a year plan on their website and you can elect to have the daily reading emailed to you… daily! I signed up for these daily emails and I must say that I am really enjoying them. I wasn’t so sure that I would enjoy reading the Bible [...]

Cling to Jesus

If you cling to your life, you will lose it; but if you give up your life for me, you will find it. Matthew 10:39
We cling to many things in life… family and friends, material possessions, memories, homes and life itself. One thing that most people have in common is that drive for survival. You [...]
