Every Christmas season, I like to find a service project that my family can participate in. Usually, its something small and crafty-oriented. But this year, I have something else in mind. My nephew, William has been in the N.I.C.U. for over 2 months (we are hoping he gets to come home before Thanksgiving) and during my daily visits with him, I have been reading Dr. Seuss books to him. The book, "Oh, the Places You'll Go" has been especially poignant, as Will has had a bit of a hard time, but he's a fighter. As we edge closer, to healing and getting him home, I have thought about this book many times and what an inspiration it is and I have came up with an idea that I just love. I have decided to purchase the book and get all the doctors and nurses that have worked with William to sign ... [Read More]

Life 2012 | Dr. Seuss Day
I have been seeing all sorts of fun ideas to celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday (which was on Friday, March 2nd). I would see it, pin it, bookmark them, and then say "oh well, maybe next year." But on Thursday night (March 1st), I realized that if I didn't do anything, I would regret it. My kids love it when I make a big deal about things. I've been pretty lax this year with this kind of thing. I have just been in a funk and I've not really been that much fun to be around. So Thursday night, I said, "Okay, I'm going to just do this and make this fun for the kids." So last minute, I came up with a plan, got a few groceries on Friday afternoon and I made it happen. And I'm so glad I did, because I think these are the moments that my kids are going to remember. It wasn't that hard to plan a ... [Read More]

Life 365 | Week 10
Monday, March 1, 2010 JJ hasn't really had too much homework in the past, except for a bit of reading. This week, his teacher decided to start some spelling/handwriting homework and JJ was so excited to get to do a little work at home. It was fun to see him so excited about school work and to see more of what he is learning at school. Tuesday, March 2, 2010 I haven't felt real well this week and have been spending most of my time working on design stuff. What really helps me to be creative is watching movies while I work. The past little while I have been watching Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman. This show was really the only tv show I watched when I was a kid and its been fun to watch it again. Wednesday, March 3, 2010 Beth loves it when I let her take a bath while I take a shower - ... [Read More]
