Remember when you were young and life could never go fast enough? I remember longing for the day that my feet would touch the ground when I sat on the couch. I couldn’t wait for the day that neighbors would think I was old enough to babysit. Oh, if I could only be old enough…
This past week, I’ve been preparing for a talk I have to give at church tomorrow, Father’s Day. My father and the father of my children/husband are both very important to me, so I’ve been trying to sort this talk out in a way that does them justice…without being a bawl-baby the whole time. While…
It’s official, Dan is STILL the reigning champion in our Father’s Day Competition. 3 years in a row! It was almost mine…I didn’t realize my generosity vote for his ‘pretty’ cartwheel would end up costing me the title! Really, I had the prettiest cartwheel. Everyone knew it. The coveted trophy, going right back on Dan’s…
We have a post office box the mailman has never laid eyes on. It’s our family mailbox. And through it is exchanged all kinds of magical post. Inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien’s magical letters to his own children, I’ve taken to leaving notes for the children here and there. A family mailbox made the magic official….
Hello everyone! Now that summer is upon us, I thought it would be a great time to give you a recipe for the BBQ. Oh I love summer! Everything about it…the sun, the beaches, the clothes and the food! Especially the food, and anything BBQ’d! One of our most favourite meals are marinated flank steaks….
Alright, last day of Father’s Day gift ideas, I promise! I had so many gals wanting to share their husband’s favorites, that I thought I would take a back seat and let them do all the gift-suggesting. But, all of those great posts got my wheels turning, and I broke down…I have to do a…
My husband is not a super hero, he is not royalty, he is not a rocket scientist. He is a great father who is devoted to his family, he does make his fair share of mistakes but he does learn from them. He is not afraid to admit that he is wrong or pulled a…
Hey guys! My name is Kelsey & I blog over at Tattered and Inked. I’m so excited to get the chance to show off my wonderful hubby, Mychal, a bit today!!! Here’s my guy with me & our little man: My hubby is definitely the best guy I could have asked to be married to. …
Hi there! I’m Angela. I blog over at Angela’s Adventures, a place where I share my craft ideas, cooking adventures and snippets of our daily life. I’m a stay at home mommy of two little ones and blogging is my creative outlet! Besides finding me on my blog, you can also find me getting inspired on…
Hi! I’m Sharon, and I am thrilled to be included on “Or so she says…”, listing my husband’s favorite things. (Mostly because it was an excuse for me to actually get some ideas for him from him, ya know?) I do decently at Christmas and his birthday, but Father’s Day is often a mystery. Breakfast…
Hello again, Leigh Anne here, from Your Homebased Mom. Whenever any of our children would ask their dad what he wanted for Father’s Day or any other gift giving occasion his standard reply has always been “Children who obey.” They would roll their eyes and then say, “No, dad really, what do you want?” I…
Every daddy can be a great daddy. They just have to want to. It’s not about money, or possessions, or time, it’s all about willingness. Willingness to: put on a silly hat and dance to no music at all, snuggle up watching cartoons while holding a puke bucket, or work all hours of the day…
