‘Tis a New Season

January 11, 2010

(And I am not pointing out the fact that he obviously needs new socks, but that’s a legitimate observation.) His beloved blankie [...]

How Sentimental Are You?

December 4, 2009

When I was a kid, our Christmas ornaments were a hodge-podge of colored balls and ornaments that my sister and I had made in school or Sunday school. Also, every year, my mom would buy a personalized ornament for each of us. She would try to find an ornament that symbolized that particular year in [...]
