Goodness, it’s been almost 3 years (I believe?) since I sat here to visit with you.. inexcusable! Truth be told, I’ve really missed writing to you; things in my life have been so constantly changing that it’s hard for me to settle down and summarize how a day or moment went because it is suddenly and abruptly the next day…

Two Final Releases for 2013
Hi All! How's that for a title to the post? Not very inventive, but to the point. 🙂 I've had such fun designing this year, and am so blessed to have met many new friends in my travels and over the internet. What a busy time 2013 was! I hope you like my last two designs for this year.. thank…

Heart Attack (with a video)
Spring break was quite an eventful one for Sabrina this year.. and quite a nervous one for me. She decided to go skydiving with a friend of hers, which completely surprised me, as my Bean has never been quite the adrenaline-junkie her dad and Bre have been. Mind you, Sabrina is a crazy-on-the-mountain ski bum, and all 90 pounds of…

Meet Josh… Here's what makes him a sweetheart: He adores Bre, although she doesn't seem to adore his idea of kidding around sometimes. But she…

Nice Girls
Last week Sophie was telling me how she and a schoolmate got into an argument, and on the playground, the schoolmate stuck her tongue out at Sophie… "I can't believe she did that!" Sophie said. I felt badly for Sophie, and with a sympathetic tone, I asked, "What did you do when she did that?" "I called her an oompa-loompa,"…

Lisa
I wrote the post below ("Fridays with Bre") yesterday morning and auto-scheduled it to publish today. But I felt it necessary to post again this morning, and ask each of you to pray for Lisa Roswell and her family. I am heartbroken. (February 28, 2011) Multiple rescue agencies are currently searching the Huron River for Lisa Roswell, 51, of North…

A Special Day
My oldest baby girl turns 20 today. She's grown into such a lovely, sophisticated young woman. Well, she could be sophisticated, if she wanted to be. Happy Birthday, Breanna! I love you so much.

Finishes, Freaks, and a Freebie
It occured to me yesterday after I posted this photo… …that one of the sisters looks a little like this: I loved Beaker when I was growing up. And then there's this character, who reminds me of pretty much any Muppet. He got a little bummed that Breanna's muscles are almost as big as his are… I think…
