Well, I managed to survive Thanksgiving. It was tough, but I made it through and I promise you this is no small feat considering we have three families to visit in just one day. We start early in the morning to make the rounds and it's a killer, especially dragging the girls around like little rag dolls. It's the way we've done the holidays ever since Charles and I got together, which I just realized...

I thought I'd share my favorite line from one of the most wonderful books I've ever read: "There's something like a line of gold thread running through a man's words when he talks to his daughter, and gradually over the years it gets to be long enough for you to pick up in your hands and weave into a cloth that feels like love itself." Isn't it just beautiful? It's from a book called Decorations in...

This week I set some new goals for myself. Yeah, yeah, I know. It's not the first time and it won't be the last but I think I might have caught onto something recently that I didn't quite get before.

Today, I want to share something very personal; something that has had a huge impact on my life and on my family. A few weeks ago, I found out that I was pregnant with our third baby. We weren't trying and it came as quite a shock to both my husband and me. When I told him, he grinned from ear to ear and he looked at me with so much love. Then he held me while I cried. Don't get me wrong, I wasn't...

Recently, I've been feeling a little lost. Every time I've tried to focus, whether on work, bills, the dishes, life in general or the things that need sorting from day to day, I've found myself hopping from task to task with no real ability to just put my attention to one matter and finish. I've also noticed that forgetfulness has crept in, making me feel quite useless. An example? A few weeks ago,...
