Date Night with Paul

By -
Paul and I are home alone again [Sunday] tonight. He doesn't feel so well. We had a lot of time on our hands yesterday [Saturday] afternoon also.

So, we went to run a few errands. First stop was Lowe's Home Improvement. The item we were shopping for was quite disappointing. Not what we had hoped for.

Then to Target just to look around. We found some Christmas gifts on the Clearance shelves. Paul was getting antsy when I spotted the cutest apron. (I can't find the picture online. So sorry.) Now, I have not ever been the apron-wearing type unless I am in the kitchen all day or wearing something I don't want ruined while cooking. But, I would wear this apron every day, even while I pour Luke's Fruit Loops!

Here are the matching towels. And the napkins. And more kitchen towels. And the oven mitt.

I just might have to ask Peter Cottontail for an Easter basket this year!!

(Then we went to the grocery store and saved $28.)

Hey Laura,

I saw your little girls with their grandma @ SCBC this morning. I loved their matching red coats! So precious! Have a good week...

Many of you have emailed me and asked questions about this blog over the past several months. So, I am going to "borrow" this information from one of my bloggy friends, AJ .

On Valentine's Day 2007 Patrick and I decided that we would not get each other a gift. This was the first time we had made such a deal. I did pick up a card for him and filled it out. Valentine's Day was on a Wednesday and we really didn't see each other much until after church that night. He came home exhausted. We had our little family of five all together in the Family Room and I handed him his card. I had signed it the way I usually do with an extra note on the very bottom: P. S. Baby Boy due to arrive in September. (Now, I didn't know for sure he was a boy, but I had a feeling) Patrick FELL INTO THE FLOOR!! Fast forward 7 months. I was very busy getting ready to open WEE Love Academy, the weekday preschool ministry at church. I was thinking that I would get the Preschool started a few weeks then the baby would come. Well, Preschool started on Tuesday, September 4, 2007. It was a great day and I came home energetic! I thought nothing of it just busied m...

Pretty...

Hello There! There is something that has bothered me for years. I have begun to do better, and encouraged others to change their ways. This is it... Why do people almost always compliment little girls on their appearance first? Little girls are held to a higher standard in regard to their appearance and little boys are held to a very low standard regarding their behavior. This baffles me. I know you've heard it, probably even done it.  What's the first thing most people say to a little girl? "You're so pretty!" "Your dress is so pretty!" Why not compliment how compassionate & respectful she is because you just witnessed her let an older person get on the elevator first? Brave because you see the band-aid on her arm from a doctor visit? Smart...maybe she has a book in her hand! Funny...did she just tell the best joke you've heard all week? Creative...does she have an ornate hairstyle?  Or an outfit you would have never ...
