What’s up, Goats

Posted in Button, Family, tagged , , on September 13, 2011 | Leave a Comment »

On the days that Button doesn’t have school, I’m trying to make a real effort to go out and do something fun together. Today, I decided that we would go and explore our local Target. No, just kidding. We really did, but AFTER that, we went to a local farm that has a petting zoo. [...]

Numbers

I’ve been having a bit of rough time lately. Button will be turning four years old soon, and, while that is an emotional event in and of itself, we were really really hoping she would be fully potty trained by now. I mean, is four years old too much to ask? Every day I wake up [...]

Button and I leave for vacation on Saturday. To say that I am unprepared would be a vast understatement. We might have to just hit Old Navy before we leave because there are no clothes to pack because I haven’t done any laundry. But hey, that’s packing light, right? So, what am I doing instead [...]

ouch.

Today is and will always be an incredibly difficult day for my family. I’m not going to get into any serious details, because I’m just not at the point in my life that I can write freely about what happened. However, it entails the loss of one of the most genuine and loving members of [...]

Babies

I do apologize, world, for my absence! This has been an incredibly busy time. So many babies being born, texts to read and so very little time for sewing and blogging. First things first! I have not one, but TWO new nieces to claim. Well, technically I have a niece and a great niece. Grand [...]

A good defense

Posted in Family, tagged on December 13, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

I’ve never considered myself to be an unfriendly person. I’ve never looked at myself in the mirror and though, “Today, you will irritate and offend people.” However, despite my best intentions, this is, apparently, what comes across when I meet people. I can’t help my height, or my build. I can’t help the dark circles [...]

Conflicted.

Posted in Button, Family, tagged on December 8, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

I’ve been listening to this audio book for the past few days called Brining Up Girls by Dr. James Dobson. It’s a Christian book on how to deal with the intricacies of raising strong, wonderful girls without crushing their femininity. To be honest, I’m really conflicted about it. Though Dr. Dobson never comes right out [...]

Surgery.

Yesterday was my hysterectomy. I have to confess that, the night before, I had a little bit of a total freak out. Not because of nerves, just because I was losing a very real and very small but big piece of myself. As I sat in our living room and cried and cried, Button began [...]

Anniversary

Posted in Family on October 22, 2010 | 2 Comments »

When I met Nate, I knew immediately that this was the man I wanted to be with forever. There was something about him, something genuine, that spoke to the very heart of me. Whenever I was around him, I felt safe, secure and in the presence of my best friend. After a short engagement, we [...]
