Did you want an update?

I don’t know if you care deeply or not, but my organizing is going great.   I have one more closet to organize (mine) and then I think I am pretty well done.  I have all of the baby’s clothes washed and hung in the closet by size.  I have a lot done not to mention [...]

Learning the Word and some encouragement

This week’s verse is from Hebrews 9:27:
And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment,
We are still memorizing using the Navigator’s Topical Memory System.
For my son, we are memorizing Proverbs 20:11a-
Even a child is known by his doings,
I hope your own memorizing is going well.  It is great to [...]

Come and live with me in blissful ignorance

In an effort to think on things that are lovely, pure of good report (a loose interpretation of Philippians 4:8) I haven’t been watching the news.  I catch things going on now and then but I really have no idea what is happening in the world.  My husband fills me in on what I need [...]

T-ball wrap up, game 2

Tonight was our second t-ball game with my son.  I didn’t bring the camera tonight because I had a feeling it might not go well.  First off, my husband couldn’t go because he had to work, but fortunately my sister came.
The game was at 7:15pm.  Really, a t-ball game at 7:15.  We did not get [...]

One of the Many Reasons I love being a stay-at-home mom!

I may not be posting regularly this week because I am enjoying real life, trying to start and finish my OAMC and reorganizing clothes and closets.  I am also really enjoying the awesome weather!
Back to the topic at hand, there are many reasons I love staying at home with my children.  The pictures below are [...]

Play by Play

We signed my 3 year old (soon to be 4) up for T-ball this year.   He was not loving it at the beginning.  Today was the first game.  If you have ever been to a t-ball game you know how painfully slow they are.  It was very entertaining except for all of the crying [...]

Frugal Friday . . . Bartering

Yes I totally stole this topic from my friend Heidi’s photography blog, but it is so interesting to me.
Do you barter?   If you do how do you go about doing it?  How do you keep it fair with who gets what?

Is it too soon for another random post?

So that old gospel song keeps running through my mind – I’m tired and so weary but I must go alone, till the Lord comes and calls me, calls me away, Oh Yes (and after googling it I now remember it is called Peace in the Valley).

Yes, there is my Baptist [...]

Learning the Word

I am still memorizing verses using the Navigators Topical Memory System (Lindsey, I will try to do better at knowing my topics).  Anyway, for this week’s verse:
Romans 6:23 – For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
And for my son, his memory verse [...]

My New Best Friend

I have a new best friend.  My friend doesn’t say anything.  My friend listens very well and works really hard.  My friend even helped me get my shower spotless and my kitchen sink clean.  I love my friend.  I really do.
My new friend is the cleaner, Bar Keepers Friend.  I live in an area that [...]
