Mothers and Sons
If you had told me before I had kids that I would give birth to a boy, I wouldn’t have believed you. Until I had that 9 lb 3 oz. bundle of all boy in my arms — it seemed impossible. Even with him in my arms, I clearly remember thinking, “A boy came … Read More
She thinks she owns the place
Gabby guards our cottage like she owns the place Keeping nearly constant watch from indoors and out alerting us to critters, cars, friends and foes.

I’m still at it — painting that is. This time, I’ve moved upstairs — giving the kitchen a splash of color! The “before” is white Formica – you heard me – on the wall – OVER beautiful knotty-pine. I’m not a fan of Formica on my kitchen walls, even if it IS practical. Practical is … Read More
