Bucketloads of Boys: January 2009

Tuesday, January 27, 2009. The Crazy Things I Am Thinking. As we are counting down the days until our daughter's arrival, I am becoming more and more obsessed about one thing: I need to become a girl again. If I am going to raise a young woman, yikes, I need to remember how to be one! What does this mean to me? Realistically, is this going to be the last time my roots will get out of control? Especially as we approach child number 5. It isn't going to be any easier to slip away for a hair cut! Hopefully,...

Earnest Talks: It's Such An Easy Word!
http://earnestdcember.blogspot.com/2008/11/its-such-easy-word.html
Wednesday, November 12, 2008. It's Such An Easy Word! Followed by the sound of a child's foot smacking the floor. One of the first words our daughter learned was "woach." Maybe that's why she moved from Texas when she grew up. After all, we have the same kind of "woaches" here. Earnest D. Cember. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Earnest D. Cember.

Earnest Talks: The Nickel - by My First Guest Blogger
http://earnestdcember.blogspot.com/2008/09/nickle-by-my-first-guest-blogger.html
Wednesday, September 10, 2008. The Nickel - by My First Guest Blogger. We were living on 15th st. and mother sent us up to the corner to the grocery, I don't remember the name of the store. She gave me orders to give you a nickel to get candy and I guess you overheard her, so while we were walking to the store you started wanting the nickel right then. You could be a real little devil!

Earnest Talks: September 2008
http://earnestdcember.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 15, 2008. Yep, that's Earnest when I still thought I might grow up to be a cowboy. That's also the house with the broken door. I lived there from about age 3 to 12 or 13. There are a couple of things of which to take note (in addition to how cute I was). One is the tree behind me. That's the apple tree that fed the June bugs I flew. I wanted to be a cowboy or a soldier. I didn't become either but it sure felt real when I was growing up Earnest. Earnest D. Cember. I told you if you told ...

Earnest Talks: July 2008
http://earnestdcember.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 20, 2008. Oh, how I loved those steam engines. They had sounds that were so unique. As the wheels turned you could hear the steam escaping. As they neared railroad crossings you could hear their whistles shouting "get out of my way! At times you could smell the sulfur in the coal that powered these monsters. My mother hated those steam engines. So, what does this have to do with mom hating the steam engines? Earnest D. Cember. Tuesday, July 15, 2008. Don't speak to strangers! I also grew up ...

http://maydecembersecrets.blogspot.com/2008/08/building-better-boundaries-part-1-by.html
Wednesday, August 13, 2008. Building Better Boundaries - Part 1 (by Ron). This is the first installment of a series about boundaries. In it I hope to introduce you to our concept of boundaries. The first thing I did was to ask the internet to help me define boundaries. It’s not as simple as you might think. In fact, according to the magic of Google the list is almost endless. Here are a very few of the more interesting definitions:. In enwikipedia.org, as used in Topology (a made-up word for Geometry?

Bucketloads of Boys: 7 Weeks To Go, and I Am Losing My Everlovin' Mind
http://bucketloadsofboys.blogspot.com/2009/02/7-weeks-to-go-and-i-am-losing-my.html
Friday, February 27, 2009. 7 Weeks To Go, and I Am Losing My Everlovin' Mind. Nesting. It is a beautiful thing, no? It can cause us to accomplish tasks that we have been putting off for months, to have strokes of genius to finally solve that one nagging organizational problem, or to work tirelessly day and night to create a beautiful, clean home. They are currently one on, one off. Gaaaaahhhhhhh! What I know for sure is that all babies are a blessing! And I will take one look at this baby and fall head o...

Saturday, September 20, 2008. The Incredible Shape-Shifting Boy. Probably my most favorite of all of his alter egos is "Super-Sharp Thornbush Man." It was my favorite because he made this noise like spikes flying out of something metal, and I swear I could see his thorns popping out. Very scary, indeed. This morning he sat down on my bed and said, "Hi, momma.". To which I replied, "Hi! How do you walk? I claw the ground or I float! What else could I say? I am raising my sons in the church. I don't le...

Monday, September 1, 2008. Building Better Boundaries - Part 2 - Of Sausages and Picket Fences (by Ron). In the previous Boundaries post,. I talked about sausages and picket fences. Those are the metaphors Gayle and I developed to help us understand the function of our personal boundaries. Both have as their principle metaphorical function the free, but managed flow of ideas, actions, beliefs, etc. into and out of our personal space. Minimize or withhold your feelings to avoid conflict? Let other people'...
