the W* family: March 2015
http://amkwilkins.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 29, 2015. Our Family in 2015: Week of 3/23-3/29. Adam picked up this toy gun from D.I. a few weeks ago, and Sam thinks he is oh-so-cool when Adam lets him hold it. He loves those big brothers of his. After dropping off the big kids and Mike one morning, I had to stop at Target. I decided to let Sam out of the cart to check out the toys. Pajamas and bare feet and all. He was one happy kid with all of that freedom. Now at any given moment we can find Josh climbing up various doorways. He's my...

the W* family: January 2014
http://amkwilkins.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 26, 2014. Our Family: Week of 1/20-1/26. On Monday, the kids had no school. It was their 5th day of "no school" (they only go to school Monday-Thursday, and Thursday of the previous week was "staff development day", so they were off Thursday - Monday). And, truthfully, they were kinda done with "no school.". Or, at least, they were tired of being stuck in a house with a itchy/tired/recovering-from-a-c-section Mama. There was a lot of bickering and boredom and grumpies going around. We pic...

Sunday, July 27, 2014. Our Family: Week of 7/21-7/27. On Monday, my sweet sister drove Mike Adam down to the insurance office and the car lot. Mike gave his statement, collected the $800 check, and went to the car lot to make sure nothing else good was left in it. They said good-bye to that van that has been so. Good to us this past year. Mike and I decided years ago to never get into debt for a vehicle again. It has been reliable and good and we were so blessed to not have to get into debt for it. Our v...

Sunday, May 25, 2014. Our Family: Week of 5/19-5/25. On Monday, Mike went into work for a couple of meetings he had to take care of (it was his day off). The school called, and I didn't hear the phone. So, they reached Mike at work (who, luckily, happened to be there). Grace had gotten sick at school, and needed a change of clothes. She felt fine, and didn't have a temperature, so the nurse said we could keep her at school. It ended up being the beginning of a weird week-long virus for Grace. I am so tha...

Sunday, April 12, 2015. Our Family in 2015: Week of 4/6-4/12. Adam and Grace both auditioned for the school talent show (and both made it! Adam decided to start his own little YouTube account with his piano songs, including the song he is playing for the talent show, "Don't Stop Believin.'". On Monday, we had our traditional after-Easter-FHE of dyeing the eggs. They all had so much fun coloring those eggs! Sam was especially amazed. Josh made the world's cutest horse at pre-school. And we are so glad!

Clarkadile Tribe: July 2009
http://clarkadiletribe.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
We're a family. A group of extremely different people who love each other intensely, and try to take the best of what each one has to give to make the whole a piece of art. See what you think of our journey. I also just remembered a funny Dylan moment. A couple weeks ago we went to Grammy and Paw's for Sunday. Dinner. Grammy usually keeps ice cream sandwiches in her freezer for the grandkids. Soon after we got there Dylan asked if he could have one. Grammy, feeling bad, said, " Oooh. Lauren: I told her s...

We're a family. A group of extremely different people who love each other intensely, and try to take the best of what each one has to give to make the whole a piece of art. See what you think of our journey. Let it end, PLEASE! Funny how you look forward to something, and then can't wait 'til it's over! Is that a word? While they were out, and stopped about 30 minutes after they came home. They are now entertaining themselves by entertaining the trick-or- treaters. Did you wonder what they were this year?

See what you think of our journey. He is a farmer that wears a tie. And he doesn't even have a real farm. He was telling us all about poison." (At this point in the story, I began to question.) "He is a farmer who wears a tie and doesn't even work on a farm? That is right up there with the dim-holes on his face! She thought about this...

Sunday, February 23, 2014. Our Family: Week of 2/17-2/23. For President's Day, Mike worked both jobs, we cleaned and caught up on homework. Our RS President brought us over the makings for root beer floats. We have so many sweet friends who are keeping us full of sugar. After a 4-day weekend, the kids happily went back to school on Tuesday, Mike sleepily went to work, and Josh and I got started on the massive pile of laundry in our living room. I figure I nurse Sam for about 8 hours every day. On Thursda...
