And Then There Were Three. Reflections on life with three children.the joys, the frustrations, and the hilarious things they say! Leaving On a Jet Plane - The Return Trip. Well, after three eventful weeks in San Diego, it was time to head back to the frozen frontier. One of the hard things about vacation is the looming spectre of The Trip Home, especially if the trip down wasn’t pleasant. But he will be very, very quiet. EVERYONE has to go potty, even if only one person has to. There was no way it could ...

And Then There Were Three. Reflections on life with three children.the joys, the frustrations, and the hilarious things they say! The "Spoon Theory" of living with chronic autoimmune disease. When I was first diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) in 2008, it really wasn't that bad. I mean, I had flares (and.

And Then There Were Three. Reflections on life with three children.the joys, the frustrations, and the hilarious things they say! Freedom is NOT free. I did not intend this blog to be a soapbox or a rant fest - just funny stories and pics of my kids. My heart is heavy, though, and I need to get this off my chest. The cost of freedom is this:. Watching your beautiful children sit in your husband's lap, all of them sobbing (including Daddy) because they can't really bear to say goodbye. Knowing in your hea...

And Then There Were Three. Reflections on life with three children.the joys, the frustrations, and the hilarious things they say! Pants On The Ground II; or, Why I Will Never Be Mother Of The Year. So this was not one of my finest parenting moments. What makes it worse is that it happened in front of some good friends who recently witnessed another one of my “Mother of the Year” moments just a few months ago. I have to say, though, it was pretty funny…. So, the kids are having fun playing at Nick's, and ...

Moving Adventure day 2 | And Then There Were Three
http://scgblessings.blogspot.com/2012/08/moving-adventure-day-2.html
And Then There Were Three. Reflections on life with three children.the joys, the frustrations, and the hilarious things they say! Moving Adventure day 2. We woke up to cold and pouring rain. We had about twelve hours before boarding the ferry, and had originally planned to fill it with hiking and sightseeing, since the hotel checkout was at 11. The weather apparently had other plans. What would we do for a whole day in this one-whale town? I could've hugged her. So, we checked in and got parked inside th...

1000 gifts...at least a few so far. | And Then There Were Three
http://scgblessings.blogspot.com/2011/09/1000-giftsat-least-few-so-far.html
And Then There Were Three. Reflections on life with three children.the joys, the frustrations, and the hilarious things they say! 1000 gifts.at least a few so far. After being moved to my core by Ann Voskamp's "1,000 gifts," I have felt compelled to start my own list. I started in a small notebook, and to be honest I'm not sure what number I'm up to, but here's a few. Snuggling during special "big girl time" with LS, knowing it fulfills her deepest need. The smell of raspberry rhubarb crisp in the oven.

And Then There Were Three. Reflections on life with three children.the joys, the frustrations, and the hilarious things they say! Moving Adventure Day 7. After we pulled off the boat we stopped in a parking area to reorganize. We had only been able to access our back hatch for about a minute before we had to pull off the boat, so everything had been stuffed in somewhat haphazardly. I got out of the car and immediately started doing a "We're not in Alaska anymore" happy dance. Can it be this easy? Convert...

And Then There Were Three. Reflections on life with three children.the joys, the frustrations, and the hilarious things they say! And so it goes.(Moving Adventure Day 1). After a week in a hotel, we are finally on our way to our new home. Today we went to our last worship service at Anchorage Grace Church, then to lunch at our friends Shelly and Phil Cochrane's house. It was nice to have some quiet fellowship and let the kids play together before we hit the road. As we drove down the Seward Highway, we a...
