Let It All Go

I did it again!!!! I am convinced that my body is conspiring to keep me in bed! My body was not the only thing that was conspiring against me this morning. My mind was in on it too. Have you ever awakened and a gazillion thoughts hit you at once? Well, that happened to me…

Whose On Your Team?

Last night after practice, the boys went upstairs to shower and prepare for bed. I heard Moo scream out, so I ran to the stairs. I asked Moo what was wrong and he told me that he thought he had caught a charliehorse. Aaron ran out of his room and starting working the cramp out…

Regrouping

Moo and I were very hype this morning. We just knew that since football practice had started and we were still walking, that he would have lost a gazillion pounds and all would be well in the world. We both came inside and did a weigh in. Usually in the past, we would be like…

Mixed Messages

So, Moo and I are walking and talking, about football and every other random fact that he wanted to share with me this morning. He began to share with me his decision to try to stay with his age group and play football with them, as opposed to moving up to the next age range.…

GET OFF THAT PAUSE BUTTON!!

I love my nike app!! We had a rocky start, but once it was operational on my phone, we have been best friends ever since. There is one aspect of the app that I really appreciate, and that is the Pause button. I have gotten in the habit of hitting the pause button when I…

Moo seemd excited, so off we go, jogging a while, walking a while....during one of our walking episodes, Moo tells me that he really needs to burn some calories today, because he had some…

Wildflowers and Waiting

Have you ever been waiting on something/someone/some miracle? This summer has been a slow flower season for me...I was not able to do a lot of planting flowers and planted seeds instead....and I hate planting seeds!!! They just take too long to grow and you don't always know what you are going to get....anywho, many…

Teaching Moo

We woke up late this morning, but I was determined to get a walk in, so that's what we did....and Moo was walking slow, not even trying to keep up...so I look back and instruct him to keep up...and he told me that he thought I would slow down so that he could catch up....why…

My Flowerbeds and The Unfinished House

This is another fb post from 2011...read and be blessed.... Recently, through email and facebook, I shared with people my process of a spiritual awakening and how I likened it to an unfinished house in my neighborhood and my flowerbeds....I would like to add to those analogies with more thoughts, so bear with me:- So,…
