  • And Then There Were Ten–No, Twelve

      We could be accused of disregarding the requests of those in authority. Our home appears to be an extended-stay motel. But the house was sold before the virus hit. And closing is happening now. My daughter and her family of eight, plus two large dogs, have moved in with us until the home they’re…

  • I Didn’t Dream It Would Be That Way

    It’s almost finished. Building out our tiny porch to something that could hold our whole family has been a dream for years. We’ve saved and waited, often with frustration, because something else always came up where the money needed to be used. We imagined what it would be like to have everyone sitting together for…

  • Is It Time To Hope Yet?

A friend is having a drive-by birthday party for her husband, where those who love them have a half hour to drive past their home and acknowledge another milestone passing without the opportunity to celebrate in person. Birthday celebrations meant to be fun. Mason turned two this past weekend,…

  • Shipwrecked Or Salvaged?

    What does one do when stuck inside, limited to interactions with whoever is within four walls, and being on a computer more than I ever imagined? Watch old movies that remind me of times when I was younger and didn’t know what pandemic meant. I’m a huge fan of old Disney movies–anything made for kids…

  • The Year The Bunny Went AWOL

    As a child, Easter was a time of chocolate eggs (I couldn’t stand those with marshmallows in them), jelly beans, and a family gathering with my Mom’s relatives, all of whom lived in the Chicago area. The Easter Bunny was very real to me; it didn’t matter that I couldn’t understand how he acquired eggs…
