I heard on the radio the other day that I just got a raise! I was so excited. The report stated that stay-at-home moms have earned a 3% raise over last years earning, which for me was a new pair of Nike's.

It's raining and pouring here in the midwest. We've been looking at storm clouds for days and days. From Kansas City down to Oklahoma city, we're seeing pictures of flooding and damage from the long, hard rains.

This week our friends were very excited to finally close on their new home. This young couple has been looking for a larger home for their growing family for at least 3 years. They've had many ups and downs along the way and have given up many times, wondering if they'd ever get a new home.

We're just finishing up the painting on the house. It's more comical than anything. I have children all asking to "help" and I'm somewhere between, "Absolutely not!" and "Why not...I can always paint over it."
I gave the boys a roller and a 3-inch brush and said, "Be careful".
Today we attended the funeral of my 9-year old boys' teacher at church. It's hard to explain to your small child why God takes a 38-year old man to heaven, leaving behind his wife and daughter as well as many friends and family. Jim fought a brief but honorable battle with leukemia.

The other night one of my kiddos asked me to join him in he lawn chair for a little star-gazing. He had me in the palm of his hand. He had remembered back to last summer when we sat outside each night looking for constellations and satellites passing by.
I'm becoming more and more like my grandmother every day. It's not totally a bad thing. She was always the life of the party...the one making the most noise, the one who knew no strangers, the friendliest voice in the room. She would talk to anyone and everyone.

It's been quite a week in our church family. In one day, a family received the shock that their baby was coming three weeks early. She arrived safe and sound and they're blessed to have this precious five-pound bundle of health in their home tonight.

I receive a daily email newsletter from the Everyday Cheapskate. I love receiving it because being frugal is just in my genetics. Some people are born with it...
Our sweet little cat had her second litter of kittens. It was a much anticipated birth and wouldn't you know she went into labor just as we had to leave for church. It was fun to come home and find 4 little fuzz-balls that came into the world completely without any of my doing.
