Have you ever marveled at something and then thought it surely must be a sign from God. Just maybe, we, humans, need to slow down and listen because there is an undercurrent to life as we know it. For the last couple of years, my parent’s house has been bombarded by a red cardinal who …

Snow
Make it stop. Make it stop. This has been a brutal winter, no other way to say it. It started in Ohio with temperatures in the teens. We headed east to see a balmier temp of the 20s But then, mommy’s worst nightmare hit. Cold and a Nor’easter. Yesterday, we only got 5 inches but …
Post Xmas
With Christmas in the rear view, we set our sight on the new year. 2018 here we come. We’re really excited to see what lies ahead. The boy himself made new year resolutions to get straight As in school and get his black belt And we made Zachary’s word of the year to be, Learning. …
Christmas Day
Christmas 2017 has been a cold one. Wind is blowing hard making it feel 5 degrees out. Luckily, it’s nice and warm inside. The boy was pretty patient waiting to open gifts. But once those flood gates were opened, A82B194B-B49F-4040-BE27-DCAE638DB420 Uncle Michael played a cruel trick on Zachary with a Clippers jersey. Someone thought for …
Christmas Eve
Last night, we celebrated Christmas Eve. We started with Zachary’s best buddy, Cameron coming to visit, where Z scored awesome gifts (again) We then headed to church and afterward met up with some really special relatives, Uncle Eldon and Aunt Carol.

Odds N Ends
The last few weeks have been the return to basketball. Today, we had another practice and after winter break our first game. Three snows already and a polar vortex and mommy may just loose her mind. Spring, where art thou..at least I have the pups to keep me warm As the mad rush to Christmas …
Birthday Parties
This month we’ve been to four different parties. I love watching him interacting with his buddies. The only issue with the last party, the boy came home sick. By the next morning, he had a fever and chills. Off to the doctor we went…and came home with the news of the flu. Ugh. Thank goodness, …
Holiday Concert
Yesterday, Zachary has his holiday concert. The boy loves to sick, which melts my heart. He’s been practicing his songs at home for weeks so it was really cool to hear the final product. Definitely gets you in the holiday spirit CA7F4BA8-A910-4840-8E6E-0EBD0557F95C
Black Belt
So this week Zachary became a Cho Dan Bo, which is basically a black belt in training. Its really cool to watch him perform the more advanced forms. He does it with such ease. In January, he is evaluated to see if he’s ready for the 3 test process. Pretty cool stuff Almost there BDC18EAA-8CEC-4EF1-AE2F-0020C1A7A99C
