Logbook 98: August 2012
http://silver-swan.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
On Wednesday I discovered this charming bullfrog hiding under the creek bank where I was eating lunch between classes. He was roaring so loudly that the water rippled around his throat. My gorgeous basil plant, one of the joys of this summer, turned into pesto yesterday. I cut off about half of it to use for pesto, and I must confess that it sort of felt like committing murder. The pesto was delicious, though. Posted by E.R. The first week of school closed today with two events, one sad and one happy.

Logbook 98: January 2013
http://silver-swan.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Now Playing: Bach, Sonata for flute in E Major, "Adagio ma non tanto.". Clover has taken to carrying my boots and Scott's house slippers around the house. The process is somewhat disturbing: one at first hears the thunk-thunk-thunk as she hauls them up the basement stairs and then her baby-like whining as she proceeds through the kitchen, across the dining room, and up the next flight of stairs. I'm always startled until I remember that our cat is neurotic. Posted by E.R. Posted by E.R. Posted by E.R.

http://silver-swan.blogspot.com/2013/04/a-quote-for-your-friday-morning-normal.html
A quote for your Friday morning:. God is love’ is the complete truth about God so far as the Christian is concerned. To say ‘God is. Light’ is to imply that God’s holiness finds expression in everything that He says and does. Similarly, the statement ‘God is. And gave himself for me. 8217; (Gal. 2:20). Knowing this, he is able to apply to himself the promise that all things work together for good to them that love God and are called according to His purpose (Rom. 8:28). Not just some.

Exceeding Abundantly: December 2011
http://exceedingabundantly320.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
About me and my boys. Tuesday, December 20, 2011. I’m dreaming of…. The other day the boys asked me what a “white” Christmas was. So I explained it meant SNOW. That everything was covered with beautiful, powdery melt-in-your-mouth, freezing cold, snow. My explanation they seemed confused. I guess it’s not a wonder that they didn’t understand. What is up with this place called the South? And why don’t we have SNOW? No snow. It’s not Christmas.”. Links to this post. Monday, December 19, 2011. It was a litt...

Exceeding Abundantly: Packed Up
http://exceedingabundantly320.blogspot.com/2013/04/packed-up.html
About me and my boys. Friday, April 5, 2013. This past week we closed on our new house and began life as home owners again. We've been renting for the past 3 1/2 years, and between living in Missouri, North Carolina and now way out West, there was no reason to buy until we knew we'd be settled. And so. here we are. Settled. Well, aside from the mountains of boxes in every room. Haha. But truly, we are well on our way to being settled. We're putting down roots. We're calling a house our own.

Exceeding Abundantly: July 2012
http://exceedingabundantly320.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
About me and my boys. Monday, July 23, 2012. Vacation without the Kids. I know its late to write about, but back in June I had the incredible opportunity and privilege to go on vacation by myself. And it was so much fun, and so relaxing, and so refreshing, I have to blog about it so I can look back and remember what a true luxury it was. And so that settled it. No way was I going to argue. I’d just been handed a 5 day vacation to Orlando, FL with a good friend (we actually invited many more...My hubby ar...

Exceeding Abundantly: June 2012
http://exceedingabundantly320.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
About me and my boys. Thursday, June 14, 2012. I’ve always loved the rain. I know that growing up in the Pacific Northwest plays a big part in that. It was always raining there and most locals learn to love it. And love it, I did. I spent nearly 20 years of my life in the beautiful state of Washington and came to love the drizzles, the steady drip-drop that soothed me to sleep, and most of all the torrential downpours. And then off they went. Or… off. Seeing their delight in the rain took me back. I was ...

Exceeding Abundantly: Sweet sweet sweetness
http://exceedingabundantly320.blogspot.com/2013/01/sweet-sweet-sweetness.html
About me and my boys. Thursday, January 24, 2013. I know you’ve been waiting for these sweet sweet pictures of this sweet sweet guy. Especially you, Mom. While I can’t say that life’s been terribly busy, it has been busy. Perhaps more of a getting-into-a-routine type busy, than a my-schedule-is-so-packed type busy. So…instead of running too and fro with things outside the home, we’ve been able to adjust to our new home and to have an inward focus. And then we moved the following week, then took a week to...

Exceeding Abundantly: May 2012
http://exceedingabundantly320.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
About me and my boys. Wednesday, May 23, 2012. New Do and Week 22. The news of the next boy on the way, and the reminder that it is going to be another hot Southern summer, prompted me to get my long hair chopped off and restyled to make me feel super feminine and super cool (as in, not hot). This shorter style will be so much easier to manage and gives me a fresh new look too, don’t you think? As I said, I like it a lot. Oh boy, a new do and week 22… it’s a great place to be. Links to this post. Well, t...
