Four Toms and a Mom: Mom is the Bomb
http://fourlittletomsandamom.blogspot.com/2011/02/mom-is-bomb.html
Monday, February 28, 2011. Mom is the Bomb. Mom is the bomb. She's like the possum. Cause she's a fox. Years ago when my youngest was asked to write a poem about Mom around Mothers Day, he came up with the funniest poem and presented it in front of the whole class and all the moms at a Mother's Day party. It was so funny that my boys have repeated it to me over the years. Okay, so he's not ready for the beatnik scene, and maybe I'm a bit biased, but I like it! Kitty @ Four Toms and a Mom. Mom is the Bomb.

Four Toms and a Mom: November 2012
http://fourlittletomsandamom.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 14, 2012. Talking to My Teen about Reading Scripture. Don't you just love when you have the right people speaking into your life? I'm writing this post more for my own purposes, so that I remember these lessons learned. When the younger boys get to these teen years, maybe revisiting this post will be a help for me! So if you've come to visit and keep up with my blogs- just know this one is a bit longer and move on to another one if it doesn't interest you! Problem is, there was a cost.

Four Toms and a Mom: April 2011
http://fourlittletomsandamom.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 27, 2011. From time to time, I get a new "memory" of Big Tom from one of my little Toms. Today it was from Christian. "Mom," he said. "I remember Dad had this squishy blue ball he used to take into the back yard. He'd throw it way high up in the air. So high up we couldn't see it! It took forever to come back down. Then Dad would catch it and say, 'Did you see that? It scraped against the moon and came back to us! Kitty @ Four Toms and a Mom. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Four Toms and a Mom: How I met my three Valentines…
http://fourlittletomsandamom.blogspot.com/2013/07/how-i-met-my-three-valentines.html
Sunday, July 29, 2012. How I met my three Valentines…. How I met my three Valentines…. The thing about a valentine is that you can only have one. He’s your one-and-only, the only one who gets to set roots in your heart. So how do I write about Tom when I’ve now been dating a man for almost a year? How does a widow convince other widows that she understands the loss of a husband when she’s now in the process of dating to find a new one? I met Tom accidently. I was young, with no family responsibilities...

Monday, November 28, 2011. The Best Present Ever! The best present I can offer my kids this year is time. I always knew this, but my Christmas card this year convinced me. It's beautiful, but… I saved time on it. These professional photos were taken a year ago. No one will notice. But I will. Beautiful images that don't tell the truth. I know, it's not a biggie, and I'm glad I saved the energy and time so that I can enjoy the advent season without chasing another photographer down! So fewer postings, for...

Four Toms and a Mom: May 2011
http://fourlittletomsandamom.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 8, 2011. The Emperor’s New Fuddrucker's Tee Shirt. Carter, my eleven year old, is the kid who calls it like he sees it. And he saw Fuddruckers (no matter how much he loved the place) for what it was—naked. No doubt when you have four hungry boys, there’s no better restaurant. It’s clean and. Fun for the family. And. We’d eaten there so many times I began to take for granted the surroundings and the décor. Until Carter pulled on my sleeve, a confused expression on his face. “Mom! Because when ...

Four Toms and a Mom: Unplugged in Appalachia
http://fourlittletomsandamom.blogspot.com/2010/11/unplugged-in-appalachia.html
Sunday, November 21, 2010. Have you ever had an unplugged moment when you saw the world for what it was—its beauty and its downfall? When I came home from a weekend mission trip in the Appalachian mountains with my church, my world looked different. Some of you are visiting from the Proverbs 31 blog, so you already know the introduction. The details follow. We greeted them and explained how we wanted to first honor them by washing their feet before giving them new shoes. We had the child, teen, or the pa...

Four Toms and a Mom: Whom do you worship?
http://fourlittletomsandamom.blogspot.com/2010/07/whom-do-you-worship.html
Monday, July 12, 2010. Whom do you worship? As Christians, do my children know who it is they follow? This week I've let that be the focus of our devotion time because I want to make sure they know where to go in the Bible to nail down a most important foundational truth. I asked them if they know the difference between Jesus and God. It took a moment before one of them giggled and said, “Mom! Will my kids notice what was missing in those statements? Can they defend the deity of Christ? Isaiah the prophe...
