My husband and oldest son were loading the dishwasher tonight. Sounds great, right? Husband: "Isaiah! Come here...which soap did you put in?" He points to the blue bottle of dish soap.

I Hate Alarm Clocks!
January 5, 2016 2:00 AM- I finally shut my eyes to go to sleep. I have 5 hours and 40 minutes before my oldest has to be in his seat at school. The holiday break is over. 4:30 AM- I hear tiny feet and a blanket dragging across my bedroom floor. I barely have the energy to [...]
Sony Cyber-Shot Camera
My husband bought me a Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H300 for Christmas! I take a TON of photos on my Samsung Galaxy but recently I have been talking about how wonderful it would be to have a better way to take quality pictures. It's not often that I am genuinely surprised with a gift. I am one [...]

Last night my husband asked me to take down notes for a song he's learning on the piano. He plays by ear. He listened to "Healing" by Richard Smallwood on YouTube and called out the notes for each part. After church he went to find my notes so he could practice. He immediately walked into [...]
