If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!This morning Degen did something really funny. I’ve mentioned in the past his propensity to eat an apple, give me little pieces of the peel, and insist that I eat them on the spot. I don’t like doing this […]

I’ve been surprised as I’ve looked on the statistics page for my blog that nearly everyone who comes here is searching for Primary Sharing Time ideas. I sure hope that what you find here is useful! I’ve already prepared my lesson for this week, but I’m also doing the 4th week of the month. We’re […]

This morning I woke up feeling really good and happy and ready to get to work. I’m sorry to say that waking up that way has been the exception for me for a few weeks. It’s been harder than usual lately for me to get out of bed energetically, to be cheerful for any stretch of […]

Although I would say that my body is far from perfect and that the way I care for my body is nowhere close to ideal, I am grateful for my body. Yesterday I did an exercise video all the way through (a pretty big feat for me) and I noticed how good it feels to stretch and move […]

At Christmas my mom sent me home with a bunch of toys, books, and other materials she’d saved from when I was little. Included among them are two audiocassette tapes that my sisters and I loved to listen to–the Watch Me Sing albums. They’re more than 20 years old, I’m sure, and some of the […]

Colin is home sick today and we needed groceries, so Degen and I headed to the grocery store with a list and a budget while Maggie napped and Colin worked on the computer. Degen and I headed to the post office to send off a check, then went to the nearest Kroger. There’s not much […]

This is Colin, and I hereby share one of my projects this week: I made some bookmarks for Sunday School / Priesthood / Relief Society. Feel free to print one out for yourself or your ward, but you may have to edit it to adjust for when your Stake Conference is, etc. Here’s a sure-to-be-correct […]

I have had a little case of writers block on and off for a few days. Everything is either too boring to read about (and therefore write about), or too interesting to get around to writing about. The kids and I went to a 50 cent movie (Alvin and the Chipmunks) yesterday with my friend Natalie […]

Sunday was Degen’s third birthday and I have this weird warped perception of time. On the one hand, it seems like he’s been part of our family forever and that he was born decades ago. On the other hand, it doesn’t seem like he could possibly have finished being two already!
Degen is a special kid. […]

Yesterday the kids and I went to the zoo with my friend Natalie and her baby, Blake. We got three solid hours of sunshine and fresh air and exercise–it was awesome after what seems like months of being cooped up inside a little apartment.
The Little Rock Zoo was somewhat larger than I expected it to […]
