And Speaking of Birthdays .... Benny is One!

By

One year ago today, in just a few minutes to be exact, our absolutely precious first grand baby came peeing into this world at just 6 1/2 pounds. Bennett Matthew Werths was born a little over three weeks early on August 22nd and our lives were forever changed.



There is nothing like being a grandparent. Nothing.




Benny is a hoot! We have enjoyed him so much this year watching him grow and learn.



He is such a little copycat. If you do it, so does he. Just yesterday I was talking and apparently interrupting him and he yelled to me and then put his finger to his mouth to say "shhhhh". I had just been doing the same thing to him at the library (not yelling, but shushing ... library voices, people!).



My boy loves to give me kisses, shares my coffee with me ("More!"), and steals my heart every time I give him a bottle to put him to sleep.


And that hair. It's awesome.


Benny, Nana loves you so very much! Thank you for bringing such unspeakable joy into my life.


Muah!

Talk about a GOLD MINE! A Thomas Jefferson Education's This Week in History by Rachel DeMille is her "labor of love" ... and I absolutely LOVE it!

A New Year, the Same Me

By
Happy 2019! It is that day of the year where everybody is up extra early starting their new exercise routine, eating only healthy foods, cracking open the pages of a new planner and Bible study, and debuting their Word for the year. You chuckle or roll your eyes, but you are doing at least three of these things. By the way, so am I. So let's start with the Word of the Year. Mine this year is Lagom. It's the Swedish word for "not too little, not too much, just right". It's a concept of being, doing or having just enough. So let's rewind to last New Year's Day. My Word was Might. And that's how I planned to tackle my year. And, I did. I worked out hard, I mommed hard, I traveled hard, I worked hard. And it was a good season. It prepared the way for this year. I accepted the Challenge I set for myself and succeeded. But, I don't need to keep up that pace. I am at a place in my life where I can kind of sit back and enjoy my life without f...
