Long Live the Imagination

By Kris | Published: December 4, 2012

A couple of weeks ago my daughter came home with a bow and arrow in tow. She made it out of sticks in her fashion class. I couldn’t help but smile because bow and arrows are not necessarily ones go-to fashion accessory. I love the fact that she uses her eight year old fingers not [...]

Strumming

By Kris | Published: October 9, 2012

I’m sitting in my bed, laptop on my lap. For what feels like the first time all day, I can just be. My littlest is asleep in her swing while her daddy studies for school and my little miss at the dining table strumming on the guitar with her teacher. She plays the keys she [...]

{Hers} My Hero

By Kris | Published: May 1, 2012

This little (although not according to her) girl is my hero. Her presence coupled with the grace of God saved me. I was on a path to self destruction and along she came and suddenly things started to make perfect sense. Life started to make perfect sense and while it didn’t necessarily get easier it [...]

{Hers} Holding Hands

By Kris | Published: November 21, 2011

{our hands a few months back (she was sleeping! I was savoring!)} Sometimes I think about the day when she will no longer reach for my hand the way she has over these past few years. In a crowded store or amusement park, when we cross the street and in the middle of the night [...]

{Hers} A Little Letter

By Kris | Published: November 15, 2011

We make our way to the car.  “Buckle up” I say.  We fasten our seatbelts.  I put my key in the ignition, turn and sigh.  My battery is dead again.  I look around trying to see what light I could have left on last night in my haste to get inside to my family.  Nothing.  [...]
