5 Kids 1 Great Journey. Friday, August 17, 2012. When Baby Leaves A Frog Takes Up Residence. Right now, this very second, there is a humongous frog sitting right past my uvula, bearing down on my esophagus and making it ache. My throat is trying to swell shut. There are salty tears sitting right at the very edge of my eyelids. Today's the day - the day our oldest child, my first baby, is moving to college. Multiplying snacks X 5 in my head at Walmart when it hit me, I only need to buy for 4. About this t...

5 Kids 1 Great Journey. Tuesday, November 18, 2008. What is it with my kids recently? First #4 decides it would be a good idea to walk through his room, toys scattered everywhere, with a blanket covering his head. This is why some people think we evolved from monkeys. Falls right on the corner of his wooden bed, with the impact to his eye area. His hands were caught under the blanket so his eye took the brunt. I would have acquiesced, as well. Problem was she was actually right above my cedar hope chest.

5 Kids 1 Great Journey. Wednesday, May 9, 2012. I don't dream much. On certain nights I cherish because they are both rare and wonderful, before I fall into light, unconscious sleep, I first fall into memories. Recently, I floated into childhood. I write this now and my eyes are brim with tears at the full, rich memories - those moments lost in childhood when all was joyful contentment and the world had yet to tinge the innocence. Traveling down the road. Granny, Great Granny, Grandpa, Daddy, Sister,...

5 Kids 1 Great Journey. Tuesday, August 20, 2013. A random, wild, uncontrolled conversation with myself. A needed release. Please ignore the grammar (and sorry for the long title). As much as I like adventure and seeing, learning and experiencing new things, people, and places, moving is always so very lonely for me. I'm sure it is for most people, but this is about me. I know, Rick Warren, but humor me. The kids have started school, establishing friends and new routines. And I find when the house is all...

5 Kids 1 Great Journey. Wednesday, March 4, 2009. Wow It's been a while. I'm still here. Too busy to be dead - definitely too busy. I stopped for just a minute today to catch up on emails and a shameless plug for two of my fav artists right now. I like all genres of music because I believe everyone has something significant to say and add to my life; otherwise, why would God have them cross my path? God didn't give us but one gift. Everyone always gets stuck on that one BIG ONE - you know the one, th...

5 Kids 1 Great Journey. Saturday, July 11, 2009. I'm here. I'm busy. I see that nobody's even asked about me in weeks. So, what have you been up to this summer? Here's a sampling of our summer so far but much, much more to come. Hope you enjoy; you just never know with family videos. This next one is for my sister who tried to threaten me into not posting it on my Blog. There is a small shot of her derriere, which I just noticed, *oops*, how did that HAPPEN? Well, now I. Links to this post. Awesome Inc&#...

5 Kids 1 Great Journey. Wednesday, January 14, 2009. New Year, New Monsters. Just when you think you have your kids figured out, they turn into full-raging hormone zombies. So you learn to deal. No biggie. Then one day, you're shopping at Walmart and you see your twelve-year-old, male zombie turn his face and there grows a long, stray hair. You panic - How did I not see that before now? What kind of MOTHER am I? Where did IT come from? OMGosh. Where am I? What do I do - buy a razor right now or do I wait?
