The moment I met Shannon, I wanted to be her friend.  The moment I saw her house, I wanted to be her.
She and her husband have been working on this little house in the middle of a city, lovingly finishing each detail.  From the trim, to the fireplace, to the transom windows, every [...]]]></description>

Several years ago, when my oldest son was a baby and we lived in Hawaii, I spent most of my free time drooling over the photographs in Martha Stewart Living.  I knew once we moved back to the mainland, I would entertain people in a way that would make Martha proud.
When we got back, [...]]]></description>

You all know I want my kids to eventually have some degree of sophistication when it comes to eating, and nothing shouts bad manners louder than someone who turns his or her nose up at something served for dinner (Tripe and sweet breads, of course, being the obvious exceptions to this.  I believe those [...]]]></description>

I didn&#8217;t realize until tonight that I started my blog exactly one year ago Sunday!  It may not be that significant a milestone for many people who keep blogs, but for me, it has been a huge milestone.

When I went up to bed last night, this is what I found.  I ran and grabbed my camera, so thankful I had a tripod and a large aperture.  
You know when you watch your children sleep, and you are just suddenly overwhelmed with joy?  Seeing my youngest two together was so poignant last night, [...]]]></description>

This picture always makes me so happy.  It was taken a couple years before the following story.
Well, yesterday, I was feeling all joyful, so I took my two younger kids to the local T.J.Maxx and filled up the cart with all kinds of things for a toy drive at a local women&#8217;s shelter.  When they [...]]]></description>
