New Year, Big Goals
I’m a little late to the blogging world but in case you haven’t heard, the holidays have come and gone. I’m not going to repeat what everyone else has said about how they slowed down for the holidays and enjoyed special moments with their kids, because we did and it was wonderful and the older…

These are the best days
I remember when we were building our house, the day the carpet went in. I was so excited to have carpet again as the place I had been living in was wall to wall wood floor, which gets old. That night we went into the empty house, laid on the carpet, and watched Rebecca turn…
