Missing Your Beautiful Face
I cannot tell you when I wrote this, exactly. I know it was written while I was pregnant with my daughter over 30 years ago. I had more time than money and still have more time than money! I am sharing this for the first time and putting it here just as it was written…

Time and Time, Again
Time and time, again we think that today is the day. Sometimes I don’t feel like doing things. I still try to do something. There is never a day that makes me want to give up. Keep going, it will get better. I am up early and going outside makes me feel refreshed. The…

Grandchildren
The blessings that they bring. Babies born onto our children. Little versions of our babies when they were babies. Crying, eating, pooping, smiling, crawling, giggling, growing little by little until all of a sudden they are the best version of two people who fell in love in the first place. Take back the long, restless…

Well, are you ready? Almost ready? Kind of ready? Not really ready? Definitely not ready? I am at the almost ready stage. The last five years we have been really working on being at the almost ready stage. Nothing scares me more than not being ready. Are you kidding me? If health care, IRAs, 401Ks,…
