The baby birds have finally all flown away. I can turn in my night watchman badge. I didn’t realize our neighborhood had so many cats. The last baby left yesterday.

what only darkness can reveal

My four year old and I sat on the front porch tonight. We had the privilege of watching the stars appear one by one. She sat in my lap and gazed upward as small points of light revealed themselves one by one. It always takes darkness to see those small points of light that we [...]

stepping out of my comfort zone

Last night I stepped out of my comfort zone. The local school board and sheriff’s candidates were having a debate and one of the panelists had to drop out, so a friend called me at the last minute to fill the position. That tells me how desperate they really were, because I had never done [...]

milk and mileage

Well, as a follow up to the last baby puke post the throwing up is not a result of milk and mileage. This stomach bug is taking us out one by one. Last night in the middle of the night, the four year got it. This morning I woke up with it. Now two others [...]
