In looking for jobs this week, we had the urge to even look internationally, so on a whim we chose Scotland. Robert was there over 20 years ago. I have never been there but would love to visit the home of my ancestors.

I just read a bit of a book I got the other day via interlibrary loan entitled, Gentle Birth, Gentle Mothering by Dr. Sarah Buckley.

This is a parenting idea that I am excited about. Diaper Free is actually the title of a book that I just got through interlibrary loan and I am not even through reading it, yet! It is written by Ingrid Bauer and is only the second book that I have come across that discusses [...]

I have to admit that most of the news I gather about the economic downturn is from Robert. It is not that I never read the news concerning it. It’s just that he is keeping closer tabs on the situation and I rely on him to fill in the gaps.

An Elegant Floral Alphabet written by Joy Marie and Jennaya Dunlap of LightHome Publications.
Our daughters are excited about this new penmanship book. With a big smile and excited gasp, our almost 8-year-old said, “You even get a picture to color?” She loves to color! Our oldest said she couldn’t wait to delve into it and [...]
