My husband is joining us for our Library Time this week. We went to a different branch of our library a few nights ago, and the baby had so much fun playing with the bead and wire toy they had while his siblings searched for books. Right now I'm reading the memoirs of a Navy …
This has been a fairly productive week not just for me but for the baby too. He's started to take a few independent steps here and there. It's so hard to believe that a year ago we were afraid he would be premature, and now he's twenty-six pounds and getting ready to take off …
Our vitamin today is B6 or Pyridoxine. I hardly know where to start describing all this vitamin does for us. It is necessary for hormonal balance. All of our cells need it. We need it to metabolize protein and produce stomach acid. We also need to help in the absorption of B12. It is also …
The other day I woke up with this song going through my head... Anywhere With Jesus Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go, Anywhere He leads me in this world below; Anywhere without Him dearest joys would fade; Anywhere with Jesus I am not afraid.

I thought I'd share my list of channels I'm subscribed to on YouTube with a short reason why I did. So, in no particular order here they are... Bored Shorts TV - This is seriously funny. They are short clips from two to three minutes, and if you need a laugh head here. …
The last few days have not been easy. Over a week ago my husband had what he thought was a minor muscle pull in his back. He teaches security every other week, and wouldn't you know it last week was his teaching week. He couldn't rest his back much and by Saturday he basically couldn't …
It's hard to believe, but we have completed - successfully I might add - the first quarter of our school year. It has gone by so quickly and for the most part easily. The children are all doing great. My kindergartener is finally having reading "click" for him which is so exciting to see. …
It's been way too long since I did a vitamin post. Sorry about that. I have to say that we have been eating a lot more paprika because of how many times it kept turning up in the "Top Ten" lists. Even my teenage daughter has started adding it to things she makes. Today's vitamin …
