Brothers
Jo-Bear and Z-Man were hamming it up in the kitchen one day and I couldn’t resist snapping a quick photo.

Shaken Baby Syndrome
I recently attended a Shaken Baby Training for my child care program, and would like to share what I learned. Do have a plan to protect your child from Shaken Baby Syndrome? If you’re a parent you need one, because in as little as five seconds your child’s life can…
New Baby at Our House
There’s a new baby at our house! Isn’t she a doll? Baby G joined our child care group just a little while ago and we all love her already. The older children love to talk to her, make her smile, tickle her toes, and pet her hair. She loves watching…
The Night I Met Teacher
Teacher and I met 21 years ago today, and in honor of the occasion I thought I’d tell the story. Sit back, grab a bowl of popcorn and enjoy! It was Friday, October 24, 1986, and I was a freshman at Valparaiso University in Indiana. I was four hours away…

I’m doing a happy dance today – my new Mary Kay arrived! Why does new make up always make me feel so happy? Maybe it’s the promise of a new, irresistible, gaw-geous me… or it could just be that I like purple eyeshadow.
What a Way to Wake Up
Little Guy woke me up at 10 to 6 this morning, I stumbled blindly to his crib and picked him up. He snuggled his head down into the crook of my neck as we went back to bed to nurse a little before I had to get up. I laid…
