Handling Disappointment
Posted in Home page on May 24, 2010 | 2 Comments »
I have seen many people handle their children’s disappointment in many different ways. From slapping them on the back and saying “Them’s the breaks” to Hugging and crying along with them. I think I am somewhere in the middle. I find myself watching my children grow and learn, and most of the time it is [...]
Ribbon on a Stick

Last Saturday at the Farmer’s Market, my youngest had a few dollars she wanted to spend. Her older sister (who loves to spend money) took her around to pick something out. They came back with a ribbon on a stick. Seriously. It was $3.00. Her Papa and I look at each other and he says [...]

Sometimes it is good to get off the ground.
Break Fast

Breakfast is typically a large meal at our home. You will often find eggs, bacon, sausage, oatmeal, toast (GF or not), or fruit on our table…and often all of the above. Our oldest daughter can make her own breakfast now, which gives her a feeling of being grown-up and us~ more sleep (with a 5:30 [...]
Finding My Zen

Today is the day my 4 year old gets sedated for her MRI. All week long I have tried to find my calm. My Zen. Breathing is good. Cookies help. A long time favorite book of ours is Zen Shorts by Jon Muth. It is filled with stories that really make us think and put [...]
Market Day Thanks

The oddest question today: “Do you sell Beer Can Cozies?“. It was at 8:00 AM. The best thing to happen today: Lots of people ate bagels. Thanks to everyone who came down to eat some and to those who constantly support us.

Busy as a Bee

I have been so incredibly busy as of late. Between being one car down, and the Farmer’s market season beginning, and dealing with our little one’s testing, and developing new products as well as a new website, *inhales deeply* I have been in constant motion. I thought I would share a bit of what I [...]

Tulle to Whirl

The Farmer’s Market season has begun, and I have been thinking of revamping the products I sell. With that in mind, I have been playing with dress-up items. Today I gave a Tulle Ballerina/Fairy/Princess Skirt a whirl (so to speak). I think it whirled well. This weekend we may be at the Farmer’s Market with [...]
Can I Tell You a Story?

This is what I heard tonight as I was helping my 10 year old with homework and trying to get my 4 year old’s teeth brushed and cleaning up from dinner. All.At.Once. With a paper in her hand, my 4 year old says “Can I tell you a story?“. Um, well, OK. Why not? This [...]
Taking it on the Road

We have our very own variety show here. Who would have thought my children would be so…eccentric. Ha! Presenting:: Dr. Terminus, the traveling quack (we are going through a Pete’s Dragon phase at our house). “I’m a Bull! I’m a Bull!” No further explanation necessary. This is a normal day at our house. I’m thinking [...]
