Today was the big day. Animal report day. We didn’t know what to expect. She collected research at home. She collected craft supplies at home. Yet all the work was done at school. No parent intervention. What a treat. I arrived 10 min early. With all eager faces looking at me. Was I late?? Nope, [...]

Tonight we went out for a movie date. Mirror. Mirror. Here are mb’s words. We went to the movie. It was really good cause I got to hang with my mom the whole entire time. I really loved when we holded hands. Don’t write we holded hands. I love when momma thought parts were funny. [...]
What makes a dad….and what doesn’t
April 3, 2012 By 3 Comments

I have been on a mission the last few months. A mission to find a church. The right church. Our home church. On the outside I wanted to find one that MB could be raised in. One where she could learn and grow and continue to be the wonderful being she is. But I realize [...]

Well phase 1 of the house got done just in time for the party…now that we are finally living in it and things have settled down I realize just how much I love the change. It’s modern but so use. The blues just make me happy. Though I think the bathroom and our new bedroom [...]
