Lots of photos dumped here......

This past week has been so very busy. Most of the week has been gloomy and rainy, but I woke up yesterday morning to sunshine filling our room with a new day, then back to rain today.
  • We have four birthdays in the family this week, one being mine.
  • The kids got their parts in their school play.
  • Breakfast with my sister.
  • Lunch with a best friend.
  • Valentine shopping and lunch with my mom. 
  • We celebrated the 100th day of school.
  • I've been spoiling our new bunny to no end.
  • We donated supplies to school for families in need.
  • I tried on and purchased my bridesmaid dress for my friend's wedding we were asked to be in!
  • Last night we celebrated my sister in laws birthday with a girl's movie night in with all the sisters and cousins.
  • My dad and mom's anniversary is today- the 13th of February.
  • Made Valentines to hand out at school tomorrow!!
  • Get to go to Cam’s class tomorrow and help make valentines that I get to bring to the nursing home to hand out! What a joy! 
  • And then tomorrow is Valentine's Day, the littlest sister in laws 14th birthday and we will be headed up to NH for the weekend to get the experience of visiting the ice castles for the first time and spending much needed family time together! I have been so excited about it for months!!
 Here are all the pictures I've taken along the way the past few weeks.......

The Strength In Our Scars

Mental Health. Depression.  Anxiety.  I know I missed "Mental Health Day", but this is something that needs to be talked about more than just one day in October. This is something that needs awareness and education everyday. More than "40 seconds of action". Come on! I wanted to share this even more when recently I found out a beautiful young girl I know is suicidal. She reached out. She got help and her courage inspires me. What I would do to hold her tight and take her pain away. So let’s talk about it for a second. This has been sitting on my chest and weighing me down for far to long. Something no one likes to talk about. We ALL have mental health. We all have highs and we all have lows, some lower than others. It's something that needs to be normalized. The way a cold is simply just that, normal, everyone gets a cold. This is a far too sensitive subject. You have a cold? You take medicine. You have cancer? You get treatment. You break ...

Hello!

It’s been such a long time since I blogged. Since I wrote about what’s on my heart. So much has changed, yet so much has simply stayed the same.  I started writing this post last August 2024 - over a year ago now! But I obviously didn't get very far.

We are adding to the clan! So here I am in the third trimester. I really wanted to enjoy this pregnancy because it will definitely, most likely be my very last. It’s been a tough pregna...

Spring ahead

                                           While I’m out and down with a spell of something that I’m hoping isn’t bronchitis or lead to pneumonia- negative for the flu, COVID and RSV at least, I figured I’d come try and write a little. I’ve been so weak and tired and out of sorts. I’ve read two books this week and started my third.  As spring turns over to summer. The temperatures rise. The rain falls. The grass grows tall. The bugs crawl from their hiding places. The people emerge from their homes, ready to fling open the windows and take in the spring breeze to cleanse the winter blues and dust from their homes. The kids are shooed outside to soak up the fresh air and sunshine. The radio plays our favorite songs. There’s the unmistakable sound of the hose being turned on. Shoes are abandoned in a chaotic pile near the front door and long forgotten. Barefoot running throug...
