    Autumn Beauty

    I love Autumn! It’s my favorite time of the year. I love the crisp cool air. I love the smell of fall. I love the beauty of blazing colors on the trees. This year in particular they seem to be bright, vibrant and deep in their color palette. I’m blessed to live in a state where we see the full…

    Algebraic Dyslexia

    When I was in school I took algebra, twice. I have trouble with numbers. It’s like my brain freezes up when presented with a series of numbers that I must rationally calculate in some form or pattern. I find it quite ironic that my 9 year old has the entirely opposite approach to math. He loves it, and computes and…

    Five Minute Friday: Welcome Home

    It’s 5 Minute Friday. I join up with Lisa-Jo at Tales from a Gypsy Mama for a Link Up. It’s like a flash mob for bloggers.

    Peace…

    For 2 days now the song, It is Well With My Soul, by Horatio Spafford has been playing in my mind. I find myself singing it throughout the day.

    The Science of Flight

    Having Beloved home during the day does have it’s advantages. I’m not super handy when it comes to building things. I find my patience wears a bit thin. So today Little Man needed to do a science experiment to study the aerodynamics of flight. That is soooo a boy thing. I figured since I’m not a boy and my Beloved…
