Well I told you I was moving on! And I did! Literally! One house totally packed up and put into 3 huge containers….just waiting till we get into the new house. One house was cleaned top to bottom (thankfully I didn’t have to do too much) and when I did start to help, well retro daddy […]

Last night I had a little bit of a scare and a lot of reality check. I’m pretty careful on this blog about what I share and keeping some privacy. And I do that for the safety of my family. People have asked on facebook for links to our new house and for the auction […]

One thing I learnt pretty early on. Never wake a sleeeping baby. Especially when they’ve been fighting sleep all day like this little princess. And on the weekend at Power of Moms there was universal agreement that watching your little ones sleep is a great thing about motherhood. I love watching them while they sleep. […]

March 18, 2012 By 14 Comments
Well yesterday I spent another wonderful day learning, reflecting, thinking and dreaming about what I want for my family.
