Big Boots & Little Bare Feet: July 2014
http://bootsandfeet.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? Well, I think I've been poked, pricked, and prodded enough to last me a lifetime- or at least, until next year's round of doctors' visits. And yes, we have screens. With no visible holes. The cool(er) weather has provided me with good baking temperatures (because really, who wants to turn on the oven in the middle of a Texan summer? So I've taken advantage of it (and the abundance of blueberries I now have in my freezer). On Tuesday...

Big Boots & Little Bare Feet: Thank You, Mama: A Compassion Post
http://bootsandfeet.blogspot.com/2015/05/thank-you-mama-compassion-post.html
Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? Thank You, Mama: A Compassion Post. Our dishwasher has been broken for over a week now. As I wash countless plates, utensils, bowls, sippy cups, water bottles, and lunch containers, I've been thinking a lot about my mom. My resilient mama, who raised us in a developing country, without many of the luxuries and conveniences I have as a young mother. Thank you, mama. Thursday, May 07, 2015 2:18:00 PM.

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? Judah's Story: A Compassion Post. This is a story about a little boy named Judah . and his brave mama's heart of compassion:. A Small Step toward Freedom. You see, a week ago, I lost my mind. Come home now.". And with my little boy sobbing on the other side of my door, "I'm sorry, Mama. Forgive me? But knowing that there was accountability there AND knowing how much my childhood was shattered at times by anger and yelling (and not w...

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? A Playdate at the Heard. We have had a string of gorgeous days here in north Texas, but it sounds like that's coming to an end this weekend with some rain and a cold front. This morning, we had a playdate with some buddies at the Heard Museum. Photo Credit: The Dallas News. And B just loves climbing in and out of the windows. And of course, they have their Dinosaur Live! Little Lady stayed wide awake the entire time we were there an...

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? Excitement before Eight O'Clock. Yesterday afternoon, we picked up Little Man from preschool, and on the ride home, he informed me that while some of his classmates sat down, he got to stand up, because "I'm veh-wy tall for my age." It took me a second to register what he was talking about, and then I remembered that it had been class picture day. He did look rather dapper yesterday. Soon thereafter, I heard B come outside, the dog ...

Becoming Miss Bowers: June 2013
http://missbowers.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
The continuing education of an English teacher. Thursday, June 27, 2013. What's In a Name? Or: "A 'Simple' Guide on what to call your teachers when they are no longer your teachers anymore". So what should we call you? Was kind of a frequent question. I think a lot of my students thought that I'd be "Miss Bowers" durning school and "Danielle" when school was out. Very pointedly. I glared at him and said briskly: "I'm pretty sure it's Miss Bowers. Well, what should I call you now? My name, and any variati...

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? Church Camp" at Chase Oaks: Summer Bible Blast! We have had a busy start to our summer! All of us except for N caught hand-foot-and-mouth disease three weeks ago, which made for a miserable week. Thankfully, the children had a mild case of it and I was hit the worst. We think it's a miracle that N didn't catch it! He pulled the bride's nephew and niece in a red wagon all the way down the hill and down the aisle! While B had fun with...
