Herbs? Really?
I never would have dreamt as a kid growing up, that I would have even the remotest interest in herbs. I'm not even sure I was aware of what they were ...
Now, I'm completely intrigued by not only their flavoring capabilities, but also all the wide varieties of medicinal properties. Every time I learn something new I'm reminded of that verse...
"I have given every green herb for meat"
It's pretty cool to realize that even weeds, annoying though they be, have value. God never made no junk...haha
So I picked the cultivated "weeds" and dried them behind my wood stove. It works like a charm...I recommend everyone have one of those...
In the end, Shawn gets to enjoy the benefits of this homegrown tea. It's good for calming him down. I won't go into all the whys of it all, this blog post would never end. 😃 For now, just enjoy the simplicity of it...until next time...

Tempus Fugit...Time Flies!!!
As some of you know, I am no longer a homeschool Mom...
My children are both in public school this year. Yes, it's a long story and I can imagine some of you shaking your heads at me...but that is not what this post is about...
What I find amazing is, though I am not a day older, my kiddos are quickly growing up and soon will be all on their own...
It wasn't that long ago, they were just starting school...
They were just little'uns back then...
Now they are my height and taller...and rapidly approaching the day when they'll fly the coop...
I'm proud of them both and am excited what God's going to do in their lives...
Love you Kelton and Kyri!!!
And for the record....
I miss this critter too...
Love ya, Shal!
What's With SELFIES???
Okay, I've been noticing this odd trend...
This thing we call selfies...
We somehow can't avoid using that reverse button on our cameras.
It seems to happen to all ages and any size group...
And usually the angle of the camera makes one or more of your features seem just a bit disportionate...
But I have found that it is an efficient and fun way to record a memory and remember who, what and where...
Rodeo
Friendship
Birthday
Vacation
Whether they are good or bad, I'm pretty sure these selfies are here to stay...
Long live this phenomenon!!!
Well...most of the time.....;-D

Once Upon A Time...
Once upon a time, a week ago to be exact, this man...
Took this son...
And went hiking on this trail...
Beside this ocean...
To sleep in this cave...
Enjoying this wild life...
Leaving this daughter...
With this woman...
To care for this cat...
And this dog...(among other numerous critters...)
Which we left for a few days and travelled to this state...
To visit this friend...
To slay these dinosaurs...
And then return home on this road...
To finally write this blog...
The End!!!
