*15 years ago, today, Brandon proposed to me.
*This morning, Christina took our family photos for us. Yay! Here's a sneak peek!
*We leave in 13 days for Pennsylvania. HUZZAH!
*I love my children something fierce. But I often fall into the trap that children are not people. Luckily, this article helped me see them a bit better. Even more than this article, though, is just the knowledge that they are God's children, too. In fact, they are more His than they are mine!

How are you liking Playing for Pizza? I started listening to it eons ago on audiobook loan from our library and I don't remember if I just had others come in that I was more interested in or if I just never got into it. I finally deleted it from my mp3 player, but I find myself audiobookless again and I'm wondering if I should give it another chance.
That is a gorgeous family portrait!
Evitafjord --It was okay. Nothing really spectacular, and I really hated how immoral the main character was (and continued to be), but meh. I read it on the flight from SLC to Philadelphia, so it didn't take me long to read it (but I read fast). It was really interesting to hear about Italian "American" football and more Italian culture and food, though! That made it worth the read to me.
Mother OTWB --thank you! :)
LOVE your family pic. I should probably schedule mine before the snow falls...good luck in the finishing stretch of moving!
Thanks, Lisa! How are you liking your new place?
Wow, how do you have time to read anything? I feel honored to have made the list.
Heidi, it's my way to avoid! ;) And of COURSE you made the list! I especially liked the Ghost story. <3
