Jackson loves to be the goaltender in lacrosse. On Sunday he was in goal - and after the game we got Olivia in on the fun.

- Tackle It Tuesday #109
My Tackle this week does not have before and after photos - it is also very emotional for me so please forgive if it sounds like a giant complaint (I do not mean it that way). My house was a blessing from the Lord so many years ago and I am still thankful to [...]

- Are you blogging the floods?
Late last night, I finally shut down my computer and curled up with a blanket on my couch. As I ate a bowl of cereal, I turned on CNN, but my appetite quickly faded as I watched stories of the rising flood water and bursting levees in the US.
While watching houses, farms and livelihoods [...] - Tragedy in the Blogosphere
When tragedy hits a family in the blogosphere, bloggers rally and reach out with links, comments, prayers and support. Even when it happens to a blogger whom we haven’t “met” before, it still feels as if it were “one of our own” who is in need. This cyber support is a beautiful blessing that comes [...]

Today at 5 Minutes for Books and at Snapshot, Jennifer went back eight years to the day she discovered her first-born was not perfect. It got me thinking about my own babies’ imperfections.
I think for us as moms our babies are perfect to us, and then when someone else says they have a defect, it [...]

I think every Mom Blogger would agree that the greatest blessing from blogging is the amazing community. And some days we need that community more than others.

Jackson keeps growing up. His hair is so much darker now. Just last summer, it was white blonde. (The same thing happened to Susan and me at his age.)
