November 28, 2022 I was thinking back many years ago when my youngest wasn’t invited to birthday parties and thought back even further when I was younger and wasn’t invited much either. I also remember when I was in gym and we had teams and being one of the last ones picked, if not the…… Continue reading The Best Invitation of All

July 20, 2022 It was a Wednesday when my youngest blessing and I were looking at kittens. She always wants to see the ones in the pet store when we are nearby.

I bent down to tell her how amazing her response was and that she made my…… Continue reading Need Ya!

This year some places are choosing to not have children go out because…… Continue reading Living Life to the Fullest
September 21, 2020 The word, Codependency, is something that was brought to my attention last year. I have thought much about it and asked myself if that was a word that described me, and after thinking much on it, I thought it surely didn’t. However, as I have gone through trying to figure out all…… Continue reading Codependent Society
July 19, 2020 A few weeks ago, I took my littlest to visit with her best friend, whose mom is also a very dear, sweet friend to me!
