Days, months, years fly by. I'm reminding myself again of the importance of slowing down and taking the time to write things down. Write them down here, a journal, anywhere, but just somewhere. I want to be able to recall them at all of their ages, phases and stages growing up. Our days are packed … Continue reading Grateful for three sons.

Summer and Baseball
I was thinking over this past holiday weekend that the boys have 1 month left of their summer! Just one month until school starts.

These boys are always "cooking" with me from smoothies … Continue reading Birthday boy!

We have driven with the 2 boys so many times, since they were born, doing 12 hour car trips to New Jersey and/ or … Continue reading Traveling light with kids
