January 11, 2015. What 2014 gave me. It’s been radio silence here on the blog for a while, I know. It’s a strange season around here right now–and I don’t just mean that it’s winter, with all the strangeness that brings (seriously, negative wind chills one day and 40 degrees the next? Get out of here, winter. I’m over it.). No, it’s a strange season for many other reasons, and all those reasons have been overwhelming lately, so overwhelming that I can hardly. About them, let alone. Be my children could b...

October 16, 2014. Apparently today is National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Day. As if that is a day worth celebrating. I know, the point isn’t to celebrate. It’s not like we’re talking about Mother’s Day here, or Father’s Day, or Grandparents’ Day, or any of the other greeting card holidays which exist to celebrate. It turns out, you can’t celebrate those holidays if you. Don’t have a family. So it’s not like we’re celebrating. Baby, and pictures of happy families and adorable children are flooding my news...

In Which I Create: AN EXPLANATION
http://clinscott.blogspot.com/2013/01/an-explanation.html
January 4, 2013. I have been keeping up our family blog since 2008 and will continue to do so. But I have not felt the liberty of Writing Thoughts there, as much as What's Been Happening. I think I would feel guilty if I wrote more and more about my thoughts. And less and less about my family. As the title states, it is the blog of The Linscotts. And I want to keep it that way: a place to update on our family and our Little Happenings.]. So What will I write about here, you ask?

July 8, 2016. Whose job is it to teach students (kids) how to react responsibly in high-stress situations? To teach them the basic principles of human etiquette and morality? To teach them that disagreements do not equal devaluation of human life? So what do you do when the good guys fail you? Which way is true north? We HAVE to do better. We have to teach our kids better. We have to fight hatred with love and ignorance with enlightenment. But the judgment of God is upon the church as never before. I...

In Which I Create: THE BUSH THAT HAS CAUSED MANY A COMMOTION
http://clinscott.blogspot.com/2013/01/the-bush-that-has-caused-many-commotion.html
January 14, 2013. THE BUSH THAT HAS CAUSED MANY A COMMOTION. There's this Very Ugly Bush outside our front window. Early in the Spring, it will bloom these amazing little white lacy flowers. A friend of mine, Expert In All Things Out Of Doors, has to continually answer my pesky question, "What is this bush called again? When she comes into town. And even now, I can't tell you what it is. Except that maybe the word "bridal" is somewhere in the name. But again, I can't be Sure Of That.

January 23, 2013. A LOVE AND A RAMBLING. So, that is what I would like to do someday [soon]. And when weeks come, like this one has, with mountains of laundry and unsettled tummies and one child just nodding off while the other is waking and there are Rooms To Be Cleaned and Dinner To Be Made, I wonder, WHEN? When on earth does a mother have time to do ANYTHING than to be just that - a mother? The three books pictured above are the only three books I have by here, but I assure you, There Are More. I thin...

In Which I Create: About Her
http://clinscott.blogspot.com/p/about.html
This is with whom my life began. My husband. Our life has progressed from Just Us, to a Small Family Of Four. But my life would not be what it is - Complete - without him. He is my other half, my love, my partner in this life on earth. This About page is supposed to be about me. I understand this. But you can not know about me, without knowing about my husband. Because that is where my heart is. Where my life lies. Where my day begins. Next to him. And see what we're up to. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

February 9, 2013. I did take two photos while I was in the hospital. One was of my grandmother holding her for the first time. And the other was while she was sleeping on the day we were discharged.). And when I look at these photos it takes my breath away. Especially the one of me with my new girl. Labor went by so incredibly fast and delivery was such a. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

In Which I Create: SPAGHETTI PIZZA
http://clinscott.blogspot.com/2013/01/spaghetti-pizza.html
January 11, 2013. This is probably the first thing I ever learned to make. It's one of my comfort foods and one of the easiest things I know how to cook. My Mom would make it often as we (my siblings and I) were growing up. For an 8 x 8 pan}. 1/2 box of thin whole wheat spaghetti. 1/2 jar of spaghetti sauce. 1/4 jar of salsa. 1/2 bag of shredded mozzarella cheese. 1/2 bag of shredded colby jack cheese. The kind of spaghetti sauce, salsa and cheese depends on what you like.). After the sauce is on, this i...
