Our Shady Tree: May 2007
http://our-shady-tree.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 08, 2007. Even Reading to Your Children Can Be a Problem Sometimes. By Neil Gaiman. I loved reading the book. The illustrations were great. I think children would have even more fun reading it themselves because of the way it is put together. Would saying something make an issue where this isn’t one for her? I’m unsure of how to handle this. Has anyone else come across this before? If so, how did you handle it? If not, I would really appreciate your thoughts or suggestions. 52 Books or Bust.

Our Shady Tree: Momma Bear
http://our-shady-tree.blogspot.com/2007/03/momma-bear.html
Wednesday, March 21, 2007. I am not what anyone would consider a confrontational person. Every personality test I’ ve. Taken has indicated that I am a supportive person who finds consensus more valuable than fighting for my point of view. I am a Libra for crying out loud. My dad simply summed it up at one point by telling me that I am a “ pleaser. Teen boys named Zack). If either of those things happened to me – and I know that they have many times, I wouldn. 8217;t respond at all. I wouldn. It's funny h...

Our Shady Tree: Man, you just lost my vote
http://our-shady-tree.blogspot.com/2007/04/man-you-just-lost-my-vote.html
Wednesday, April 18, 2007. Man, you just lost my vote. I wondered which of the 2008 presidential hopefuls would take the tragedy that took place at Virginia Tech and attempt to make some political capital. I must say, though, that I'm outraged at the way in which this happened. Comparing the sadistic slaughter of innocent lives to the "verbal abuse" of Dom Imus? Is he so lost inside of his own intellect that he cannot see reality for what it is? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 52 Books or Bust.

Our Shady Tree: August 2006
http://our-shady-tree.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 27, 2006. E and A Updates. Close to tying a bow. She can make the first loop and brings the other string around. It's pulling the string through to make the second loop that's getting in her way. When Danny had her show me her new talent, I was amazed! 2) She's getting much better at coloring in the lines. She's very proud of this and should be. I can't believe how she's growing up. 4) After struggling hard to watch a movie other than Wallace and Grommit. Or Lady and the Tramp. Most of the...

Our Shady Tree: September 2006
http://our-shady-tree.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 28, 2006. I Want to Throw Up. You’re saying to yourself – Jennifer want to throw up just because she saw a cross dresser? I threw up at the movie theater while watching The Silence of the Lambs. That’s a post for another time, but it’s very important to this story. To this day, I am traumatized by the voice of Ted Levine. The actor who played Buffalo Bill. Back to the lobby:. 8221; I mumbled “104? Saturday, September 23, 2006.

Our Shady Tree: Beware of the Baby Bear
http://our-shady-tree.blogspot.com/2007/03/beware-of-baby-bear.html
Tuesday, March 27, 2007. Beware of the Baby Bear. When someone gets hurt at Emma and Allison’s daycare, the child is given a piece of ice wrapped in a paper towel or a sterile glove. So, when the girls get hurt at home, often they want to get one of the ice packs out of the freezer. The ice is rarely used for long. The mere presence of it seems to sooth them or at least provides acknowledgement of their injury. 8221; Danny got her the pink kitty ice pack. Wouldn. 8217;t long before she didn. 8217;t in hi...

Our Shady Tree: July 2006
http://our-shady-tree.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 30, 2006. I hope to not be speaking too soon, but we've had a bedtime success in our house over the weekend. Ally did not sleep for one second in my bed last night (although at 6:30 I went in there hoping that she would sleep with me.). I proved to be a stroke of genius! The power of wanting what your sister has. Have a good night tonight. We are certainly planning to do so ourselves. Thursday, July 27, 2006. Thank you so much for your prayers! Tuesday, July 25, 2006. I never would have thou...
