The Storm (Eye of)

August 10, 2018 by Jill 1 Comment

Eye of the Storm song: Ryan Stevenson ..mmm, when my hopes and dreams are far from me, and I’m runnin’ out of faith I see the future I picture slowly fade away And when the tears of pain and heartache Are pouring down my face I find my peace in Jesus’ name.. In the eye … [Read more…]

Too soon for Christmas?

November 6, 2016 by Jill Leave a Comment

Is it too soon for Christmas? Every year items appear in stores a bit sooner. We went to the megamart the other day and the Halloween clearance (and fall for that matter) was already 75% off and squished into a tiny section. Christmas was already set. I did find a cool Snoopy Scarecrow that I … [Read more…]

Chipping away religion

April 5, 2016 by Jill Leave a Comment

I told my husband tonight that I feel like Peter Capaldi chipping away at that wall (Dr. Who, Heaven Sent)… he asked what was on the other side… but I had no answer. It just seems imperative that I shatter the wall to bits.   None of the other people involved in my discussion group … [Read more…]

Teaching your kids the 5 finger prayer

February 16, 2016 by Jill 1 Comment

Finding an easy children’s prayer is as simple as a google search, isn’t it? Except putting them into practice can be harder than it seems. Prayers at night tend to drag on as kids decide that taking up more of mom and dad’s time is great, because it delays bedtime, but heading to bed early … [Read more…]

Winding through December 2015

December 18, 2015 by Jill 1 Comment

This week we started off with a couple of items for the paper trail (below), plus a discussion of St. Nicholas/Santa Claus. Every year I have had the same discussion with my now 7 year old, and the younger ones listen. Always the same even tone of voice, same talking of ‘St. Nicholas was a … [Read more…]

Are you a humbug if you don’t say ‘Merry Christmas’?!?

December 5, 2015 by Jill Leave a Comment

My oldest asked about Hanukkah yesterday, and just like anything else, I answered her honestly that it was a holiday kind of like Christmas that was celebrated by people whose religion is Judaism . She said, oh. Like Jews? And I said, yes, Jews. Simple enough. [Peg Plus Cat on PBS brought it up]… she … [Read more…]

What does Marriage Equality mean to me?

June 27, 2015 by Jill 2 Comments

Before cell phones, easily 20 years ago, probably longer, I answered the phone at my parents house and was asked to accept a collect call. It took a second to recognize the voice, but the distress inherent in the tone across the wires had me yelling for my dad. My aunt had suffered a stroke. … [Read more…]

Taking the Panorama Genetic Test- what it means for you and baby

June 12, 2015 by Jill 1 Comment

Just what every expectant mother wants to hear–Congratulations on your pregnancy, but you’re 35 so your eggs could be expiring– what!?! Let’s face it, common assumptions are that after 35 the risk for Down’s Syndrome and other congenital diseases/defects are doubled or tripled. The truth is that in any pregnancy, these problems can occur and … [Read more…]

Cleaning House

May 27, 2015 by Jill Leave a Comment

I spent a good portion of each morning the last week or so just trying to slowly sift through what’s on our counters, cleaning the table off, throwing things out, putting things in the donation bucket, recycling, etc.  We’re literally cleaning house, albeit slowly. Over the weekend I found a package of coffee filters that … [Read more…]
