Scaling Back Mt. Laundry

The two things our house seems to be overrun with are paper and clothing. We have tons of clothing. Luke suggested once that we cut back clothing to 4-6 outfits per person. I never took him seriously because to cut back on laundry means that I will always be washing clothes. And who wants to [...]

Proven Right

While playing online math tic tac toe, Phillip was showing me that if he clicked on the answer box, it would pull down a list of numbers to choose from. I immediately saw that it was only a list of numbers that had been typed before, and the number he was looking for (5) was [...]

Smileys and Life

Smileys. They are found online across the globe and can mean many different things including “I’m happy,” “I’m smiling,” “that’s funny,” or “just kidding.”
It seems to me like smileys are quite common everywhere, except one place. Wondering where that one place is? It’s called the real world.
Do you ever see someone walking down the sidewalk [...]

Save Our Successors (SOS)

David Ogden is a man who believes that America is already bound by the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child due to International Law because almost every other nation has signed the treaty. That means Ogden already believes that the government has more control over children than their parents.
If that doesn’t concern you, [...]

Seeing Double

One morning last week, Peter woke up and went to the kitchen. When he came back to my room, he was holding a bananas. When I looked at it, it looked like two bananas; then when I looked at it again, it looked like one. Was I seeing double after just waking up?

A Life-Changing Goal

I am not the best house keeper in the world. I know you are so surprised because my house always looks neat when you come over.
What you don’t know is that my bedroom door is closed for a reason. I cross my fingers every time someone comes over, hoping that no one opens the door [...]

A Hearty Wordle

Wordles can get addictive. I just did another with a love theme from I Corinthians 13. I think it is cool that it took a random shape very similar to a heart!

Will You Be a Rep?

Parentalrights.org has made it their goal to protect parental rights in America by preventing the signing of the UN Convention on the Rights of the child. I have posted several times on this topic, but if you need a mind refresher, take a few minutes and read to see how urgent this is. It could [...]

Headless Horseman

Phillip literally means “lover of horses.” He also likes chess, and the knight is one of his favorite pieces. So it works perfectly that our “horseman” is headless.
I told you he slept anywhere!

* The boy pictured above is not truly headless….just in case you hadn’t figured that out.
