I wonder if you know how much I love you? You know, just because I told Purity she could come live with me first doesn’t mean I love you any less. Purity and I had been talking about how stuff was at home and I just wanted her to know if be there for her….
It may seem impossible to find a good friend. That’s why you gotta hold onto them when you find them. They do exist, I promise. Mavican and I have been friends since college. Faith and I worked together for probably a decade or so by now. High School can be a hard time to make…
Every Friday, I meet one of my best friends for coffee and a little girl talk. We meet around 8:30am at the Starbucks closest to the Home Depot in your town. My friend ( we’ll refer to her as Faith) lives in the same town as you so it’s easier to go see her. I…
That last post is sad, I know. But this one will cheer you up. Time, love and tenderness will get us through this. Time is moving slowly, but steadily. Purity will be able to drive alone when she turns 18. And Bea will be getting a cell phone for her birthday – I hope. The…
Not much going on today. Just hanging out with friends while another friend cleans my apartment. She’s a cleaning woman by trade and does a great job for a very low cost. Yes, I can afford such things now. But I’d switch back to having less money, cleaning my own house and doing less stuff…
I love this song. Totally from my generation but still cool. Cyndi Lauper is amazing. And the song keeps making a really good point: Girls Just Wanna Fun. I’ve learned how important it is to just keep fun in the forefront of every day. And if others won’t “let” you have it, you gotta make…
Today, my church friends and I are going to that spa to hang out and have some fun. It should be fun. One thing we might do is go underground to the grotto. We take an elevator to an underground cave. The spa workers slather green lotion all over our bodies. Then we hang out…
I know I said I’d keep all advice in the section marked Sisterly advice. But this is special and very important advice. Being an aunt is hard. You are NOT the mother. You will see this beautiful baby and you will feel such a flood of love to protect her. But it will be made…
Your niece was born last night! I got a text about an hour after it happened. I had just gotten home. This is Grandma’s song that she sang to me, YOU and all sweet babies she ever lulled to sleep. Grandma was a nurse in the baby section of the hospital before she went into…
So, imagine that we left our desert rock dream house around 8am yesterday morning. We met up with my good friend, Mavican (who comments frequently on our website) for a fun filled day at the magical kingdom. She drove us from Victoria Gardens Mall to Disneyland. We parked in Simba. (See Purity’s shirt – Simba)…
