This past weekend I got to enjoy a couple of days of leisurely fun with my Grandma Barb. Who, of course, is my kids’ great grandma! Wow. We went to the petting zoo on one of the first nice days, chatted through lunch time and nap time, had lunch another day at our new apartment, […]

A place called home… via …where we wake and rise to greet the day, filled with promise. Two by two little ones’ eyes flutter open. They’re invited to dress, to eat, to begin – the youngest asking eagerly, “What are we doing today, Mommy?” A day in the home brings a dynamic blend of the […]
