My grandpa

My mom called earlier tonight telling me my dad's dad (I guess I could say grandpa) had a 3rd stroke. He's fine- I mean as well as an 87 year old man could be after having a 3rd stroke. My mom said he looked somewhat "angelic." He'd lost a lot of weight and his skin is baby butt smooth.   So that got me thinking and remembering. I have bits and peices of memories of him. You know, normal grandparent type stuff- him yelling at a 7 year old me to get out of the way of the TV cause the football game was on.  Read more >

a rainbow of foods!

So I was thinking of new and creative ways to get my uber picky 3 year old to eat something other than just bread and I thought I'd have a color themed dinner. Like everything to be red or orange, etc.   The problem is that I'm having trouble thinking of and finding main dishes.   Lets say I wanted to do orange... any ideas? Or yellow- I'm just stumped.   I thought if I maybe did red/pink I could do salmon. Green I could do pesto. But I'm racking my brain trying to think of main dishes for othe colors.  Read more >

Need serious potty training help and advice!

Our oldest son, Paul, just turned 3 this passed December. He keeps taking 2 steps foward one step back when it comes to potty training and I'm ready to pull my hair out!

So let me tell you the exact problem(s) and maybe you guys have some ideas and advice.  Read more >

Ahoy mateys! Arrrrr!

If it wasn't already evident I, we, did not have a "normal" childhood. While other children were playing with their new store-bought toys- their toys of the latest and most popular characters- we were in the backyard with shovels, dirt, bicycles with no tires and anything else we could find.  One of my personal favorite games to play was Pirates. Every now and then it would start to rain. This was not your every day rain. Rain that replenished the Earth. Rain you could smell coming from miles and hours away.  Read more >
