A series of thoughts in no particular order. Tuesday, June 18, 2013. Sometimes we do the worst things with the best of intentions. When I say this, I don't mean "they" or "those people." I mean "we." I mean LOOK inwardly. And it will quiet us instantly. It's not as fun as pointing the finger at others, but it is what is right. And I didn't like that. I wanted to talk about this other person. I wanted to focus on everything that was wrong with this other person. And why? Wanted everyone to know how bad th...

A series of thoughts in no particular order. Thursday, August 14, 2014. I am not a fan of Gordon Lee's pediatrician. I am a fan, however, of the pediatric nurse. She was amazing! He also loved the fact that his examination table was a lion. In this picture, he is looking for the otoscope (hanging on the wall behind him) and cannot find it. I did a bad job taking this picture because I was trying to get a picture of the otoscope and of the picture of it on the page in his book. But apparently I only g...

A series of thoughts in no particular order. Sunday, March 16, 2014. I continued praying because I wasn't having faith- not because I was truly longing for what was good. Likewise, I was getting frustrated. Why isn't God doing anything? What more do I need to do? There's the problem. Everything is on my terms, my way. There is a time when God wants us to act, and then there is a time when God wants us to believe. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Tale of a Third First-Trimester. Hello...

A series of thoughts in no particular order. Thursday, October 2, 2014. Gordon Lee has been learning all about apples this week. There are endless ideas for things you can do with apples. Plus, my child who wouldn't touch a raw apple before this is eating them like candy now! What a bonus. :) His books have really helped him understand how apples are formed, and they also help him realize that different apples have different flavors. It is just so delicious! I cut the apple in half. Dug out the core.

A series of thoughts in no particular order. Saturday, June 27, 2015. Why I’m Tired of Hearing about the so-called 4th Trimester. I’ve heard it again and again—like’s it’s some ground-breaking discovery—that the first 3 months of a child’s life is like the 4. Trimester explanation, I have no problem with that either. But I do, and I am really sick and tired of hearing it constantly as if someone is a professional on these things and needs to school me. Isn’t that obvious? Trimester. So if my body nat...

A series of thoughts in no particular order. Saturday, November 23, 2013. To spare those on Facebook from hearing about Gordon Lee's latest adventures in pottying, I decided to come here to share his success. I know that I find myself searching out blogs, Facebook posts, articles, etc. on the road to potty training as we go through it here. So, I felt I would share my own experience for that same reason. Today, in fact (one week after the start of this), he had several firsts! It's not scary at all!

Pondering in Purple: Learning as We Go

A series of thoughts in no particular order. Tuesday, August 5, 2014. Learning as We Go. This week, Gordon Lee and I are learning all about work vehicles of all kinds. We just got our books yesterday, and we have read about 5 so far. This morning, we were out running some errands when everyone's favorite orange road markers showed up. Great. I think to myself, just what I need.construction! Meanwhile, a tiny voice in the backseat calls out (with all of the enthusiasm his little body can contain), "Mommy!

A series of thoughts in no particular order. Monday, August 25, 2014. So, there was a reason I didn't post much about Gordon Lee's adventures in learning last week. I was feeling miserable. I know for a fact that I did not have this much nausea with Gordon Lee. On the bright side, I have discovered that eating raw carrots is a great remedy for nausea! I was still in shock. I think I stared at that test wondering, Seriously? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Deric and Rebeccas Blog.

A series of thoughts in no particular order. Saturday, August 9, 2014. A Few Favorite Books from our Truck Unit. As our time learning about trucks is drawing to a close, I feel I want to share some of our favorite books we've read. I like all of these books (as does Gordon Lee) because they are not only cute with enticing illustrations, but they are also very informative and educational.also while being entertaining. 1 Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site. By Sherri Dusky Rinker. 2 I Drive a Semitruck.
