    Ideals VS. Reality

    Yesterday was one of those days. You ever had one? I was supposed to meet a friend for a book study in the morning. I was definitely looking forward to an extended conversation with an adult. As it turned out, my little girl decided she wasn’t going to take a morning nap. No; instead she…

  • A New Venture

    A New Venture

    venture: an undertaking involving uncertainty as to the outcome, especially a risky or dangerous one: a mountain-climbing venture.   Well, considering the definition of the word, maybe “venture” is not quite the word I’m looking for. oh well.

    Mommy-Daughter Date

    I love my baby girl. She is quickly becoming a little girl, not a baby girl! I love spending time with her in the regular day-to-day things, but sometimes we just need to take a little time out for a Mommy/Daughter date. I know she’s only 15 months. But I also know that I will…
