Last Saturday, Zachary also played his first game. Mommy loved that they had him running point to start…but boy was it a rough game. I really would like to know how some teams are so loaded with talent and others not so much. We, of course, are in the not so much category, which frustrates …
Next weekend Zachary has his black belt evaluation. This is his first steps to getting his belt. And the important thing is that the evaluation pinpoints areas that he needs improvement before the final test. During class last week, he learned the final form needed for the evaluation. 56 moves that are really cool to …
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 …
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 …
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 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 …
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. Uncle Eldon is the brother of mommy’s grandmother. At age 92, he’s a trooper …
Tis the Season. After a busy few weeks, the big day is almost upon us. Someone is super excited. And with each year gets better with the long drive. But before we departed, he did his holiday concert. Someone is quiet the swooner. They sounded amazing and Z loves to sing We did his first …
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 …
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, …
