Another silly moment in the Haxton household... It had been a few weeks since we had the last group of people over for a party. My son was playing on one of his "missions" which today took him to the intriguing, mysterious cave world of what is know to adults as only the "place under … Continue reading Gross Factor Moments

Waiting on a Promise
Winter is long, gray, and cold. This year the winter of the north seems to have extended itself to some degree or the other throughout much of the country with the exception of maybe Alaska. The weather creates a deep longing in me for warmth. I want to go outside. I want to see green, … Continue reading Waiting on a Promise

Fall is here!
Fall classroom units are planned, children are back at their desks, gardens are producing harvest, and football is beginning again. Signs that fall is here! Each season brings new beginnings. I love starting the fall activities at our church and seeing kids start a new grade (which somehow makes them seem older so quickly!). The … Continue reading Fall is here!
