A Moment to Exhale: Do Parking Lots Grow Vines?
http://youmeandthree.blogspot.com/2012/10/do-parking-lots-grow-vines.html
Sunday, October 28, 2012. Do Parking Lots Grow Vines? Sometimes I meet people here, and it feels like I've known them for longer than I've lived. I told Tom about how often this happens to me and to my surprise he is having the same sort of experience here too. Maybe it's more familiar here than I thought. Somehow I got in my head the pumpkin patch went out of business, so I begin asking around for a similar farm nearby that sold pumpkins. We also really enjoyed the corn maze. Our family split into t...

A Moment to Exhale: Waiting At The Finish Line
http://youmeandthree.blogspot.com/2012/09/first-of-all-id-like-to-thank-9.html
Thursday, September 27, 2012. Waiting At The Finish Line. First of all, I'd like to thank the 9 dedicated visitors to this blog over the past year even though I've offered nothing in return. Nine. I opened the last rough draft and saw this:. The highlight of my summer was the family reunion on my side of the family.". And so, I must finish it. I must finish writing about the highlight of summer. Last. And they got used to waiting. On me. Especially on the day of the triathlon. Participating. Thirty t...

A Moment to Exhale: November 2010
http://youmeandthree.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 15, 2010. Ten Plus Ten = Thirty. It's better to walk home. My MIL's house than walk to. Because of the big hill. It's also better to clean up after the kids myself if I'm in a hurry because the kids don't mind. I've also heard it's better to kill two birds with one stone. So, goes my life and all the analysis behind practicalities and the measure of success achieved from each task performed. Me: (As I was combing Matt's hair before church) I'll pay you $10 to cut your hair. But really it...

A Moment to Exhale: The Answer is 'e'
http://youmeandthree.blogspot.com/2011/08/multiple-choice-questions.html
Tuesday, August 16, 2011. The Answer is 'e'. What is the commonality of photos left on a drafted post for over a year now. A) random things my kids do - like fall asleep.face down.on cement because they can. B) creative ways to keep mom guessing - like when Travis refused to do chores because he figured his art work would yield him a $59 return. C) funny happenings during my day - like when the toilet paper in the house is replaced with caution tape. E)all of the above. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A Moment to Exhale: April 2011
http://youmeandthree.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 24, 2011. Picture This in the Sand. Sometimes our family heads to the beach to draw a picture of our future in the sand. Tom and I started doing this ten years ago and we encouraged our kids to join in. My future always includes a picture of my dream home. The home that has an open foyer and molding through out. The drawing in the sand just looks like random connected squares and rectangles, but the details are drawn in my mind along with the happy family that belongs inside of it. Travis w...

A Moment to Exhale: Invited to the Police Station
http://youmeandthree.blogspot.com/2011/05/invited-to-police-station.html
Tuesday, May 10, 2011. Invited to the Police Station. I woke up nervous for the Police Department's First Ever Potluck Award Dinner for the 8th Grade Leadership Program. I hadn't settled on what to bring or what I would wear. But that wasn't making me nervous. I was nervous because I'd never been to an 8th Grade Leadership Potluck at the police station with people I didn't know. Makayla wasn't nervous even though she had volunteered to stand and give a speech. And even though I'm still nervous about thin...

A Moment to Exhale: February 2011
http://youmeandthree.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 27, 2011. Happy Birthday, Give Me. I can't say I don't have a clock hanging on the wall in my home even though I hate clocks, but I can say you'll never find pictures without purpose on my walls. And my most favorite wall pictures are the family kind. That's why I asked for or actually demanded professional family pictures for my birthday this year. My walls are bare. We missed our photographer from Texas last time she was here, so we had to find another one available on February 21st wh...
