Just breathe...

" see prayer as a connection, as a way of living and breathing, a way of being connected to and communing with the Creator."

Most of the time I forget to breathe... I need constant reminding to breathe and breathe deeply...

just a plain good ol' day...

had a great day, no kid problems, no pain from kidney stones, honey being the husband ever... just feeling plain good today....

Ode to Vinny

After a longgggggg, hard day defending myself from biting, mauling children....I come home to this.......He makes me laugh...*he*he*

Doby the house elf...(Harry Potter fans will understand)

I love him!!

Anyone who knows him, can laugh because he backs up where ever he goes. He's a strange dog!

much cooler now...

Thanks to Reganne @ Mo Jo Pies, I now have short hair. Much cooler now in this scorching heat wave of the midwest! My locks will be sent with love to Locks of Love and hopefully my hair can adorn a new head. I encourage all those who can and will to grow out thier hair and donate it, it is a simple gift of love that costs nothing, but the postage to send it. Think about it....

27...can you belive it?? I can't!

I am 27 already...boy has the time flown by. Why it was just yesterday I was making mud pies in the backyard. Ahh, the easier days of gone bye....I don't think that I have fully grown up.

Oh yeah, my husband is the best! He bought me some cd's, a new porch door and installed it and best of all a wonderful pedicure. It included a massing footbath, foot scrub and wash, lotion massaged and toes painted....I love him!

abe lincoln shaved....

It had been 1 year since this handsome husband had shaved his beard. It was long and scraggly, people called him abe lincoln, amish, meninite, islamic and a terroist, but he was neither of those..just a cute hubby with a mission to grow a long beard........but the long beard had to go, it had been 1 year and he shaved it short...he was not happy that he did it and wouldn't let me take pictures(i snuck this one).

I love him no matter what size beard.....xoxo

new pretties for school

lookie, lookie I got new shoes for school. Even teachers get to get new clothes for the new school year. I love that flat, comfortable, cutes are in. Teachers are sometimes frumpy and drab and i don't want to be like that, I want to be the cute, upbeat teacher..so these new shoes make me feel peppy.
