Saac came in and said. “Mom, have you seen the look on dad’s face? He loves driving tractor!” I reminded Saac that he used to get a kick out of driving tractor once upon a time. I told him to take a picture. (He likes driving camera now.) Ciera came in later and she confided …
Lost and Found
“Pam, Where’s your bike?” “What do you mean, ‘where’s my bike’. Isn’t it in the garage?” “No. Neither is Ben’s.” The garage is a mess, but not that messy. Sure enough both bikes have disappeared. I am mad. That bike was my birthday gift. It was a nice bike. Why can’t I have anything nice? …
Mother’s Day Memories
Thank you Ciera for paying attention. Thank you for trying to make mother’s day a special day for me. Thank you for spending time with me and wanting to spend time with me, even if it was just laying in the hammock and talking. I enjoyed our time together.
50 cents
Last week we decided to post it. We couldn’t resist anymore. We had no idea within one week it would go viral, but it did. We had decided to start posting some other funny moments, and then we saw it. Someone or a lot of someones put their watermark on our clip. What is up …

She’s BACK
How do I know she is back? First clue is my car is gone, my keys are gone and there are dirty dishes. Okay, more than the normal amount of dirty dishes. She did lie next to me this evening to watch AMERICAN IDOL and then she had the nerve to ask me to make …
One Question
Two days of traveling and two days of … not traveling. I just have one question. Where is it written that Moms go to clean out their daughters apartments so they can receive their security deposit back? Where? I told Chris to let Wistie pack up and clean and then she could call us and …
Where Did It Go?
We visited two friends in the hospital this week. Both patients are in serious condition. And sitting by their side are their spouses with such looks of bewilderment. I looked into their eyes and saw the disbelief at what might occur for them. A lifetime, a moment, a marriage. Where did it all go? Withered …
Courage
There is a story in the bible of Jesus teaching in the temple when he was still a child. I love that story for many reasons. Today I love that story because, to me, it shows that those who loved him loved him truly. I believe that when you are truly loved it gives you …
