As you know I’ve learned to taper my speech to become patient and think things through before getting really upset.  As new moms in the beginning it can burst out of you,  I’ve learned that a cool head beats a hot head any day.  But getting there takes time.  I blogged about Anna’s huge issue […]

I see this thought in people’s faces. I think the expression comes before some people can hide it. The world is coming closer to seeing that we are all in a struggle. We have so many issues to fight in our world today: equality, gender awareness, and “Me Too” fights, coming out with wrongs that

I’ve blogged about this in the past but as you know it comes around every year.  I have a bad vibe with Lifetouch Photography.  I have had so many pictures that were bad that it’s hard to believe they care about their job at all.   But as a Warrior mom I am perplexed about the

Thank you to all who read this blog for your patience while I transitioned.  I have been blown away by the tedious parts of this switch from one website to another.  To add to that we have been struggling with many small hurdles over here.  These include sickness, building a carport from scratch, a power
