I had a fun 48 hours this past week with our best girl, Anna Kathryn. Julie and I met in Beebe for the exchange of our sweet little princess. Everyone asked her “what about your school?” while she was with me. She and I would answer, “the perks of homeschool”. I exposed her to theContinue reading “Aunt Abby’s Girl”

Easter in Northwest Arkansas
The kids enjoy dyeing Easter Eggs every year. Since I am far from being OCD or a type A personality, the kids get to dye the eggs anyway they want. They can use every color for one egg or just one color. It doesn’t matter to me. Their creativity gets to shine!We were at AuntContinue reading “Easter in Northwest Arkansas”

Their school administrator,Continue reading “Beavers Academy Christmas Party”
Prayers and Missing Teeth
About three weeks ago I looked at Anna at church and noticed that her two front permanent bottom teeth were right behind her front baby teeth. Her baby teeth were not loose at all. Not for lack of wiggling. We have been trying to lose teeth for a while now, but to no avail. SoContinue reading “Prayers and Missing Teeth”
Busy Summer
It seems like its been forever since I’ve been on here. I’ve been busy but not busy enough not to blog. I think I have a case of writer’s block! We’ve been swimming, swimming and swimming. I told Stephen the other day that our next house is going to have to have a pool inContinue reading “Busy Summer”
