I have this theory that someday, probably a long, long time from now, I’m going to write a book. I’m not entirely sure what I’m going to talk about in my book, hence the long time from now, but I know I want to direct it to people who live in between. I want to [...]

I have decided that I quite like washing dishes by hand once in a while. It’s a good thing I decided this because our dishwasher is broken.
I was woken up on Tuesday morning by Isaac knocking on my door and asking what the sign on the dishwasher that said “Do Not Run Dishwasher” meant. [...]

I don’t expect most readers of this blog to care, but just in case, consider this fair warning that this post will mention urine and bladders. If that bothers you, don’t read it.

This experience included my first time ever doing the following: giving a urine sample, wearing a hospital gown, having an IV put in, having surgery (other than wisdom teeth), spending a night in the hospital… Really, the list goes on and [...]

Raquel did indeed have appendicitis. Her surgery was successful and hopefully she’ll be coming home tomorrow. Thank you for your prayers.

Please pray for Raquel. James and Theresa took her to the emergency room today because of severe stomach pains that started last night. She’d had an episode of this thing a couple of months ago that went away after a day. At that time we were all thinking appendicitis, but when the symptoms went away [...]

No, really I have a good excuse for not posting. It’s not that aliens invaded or that I was turned into a zombie–it’s slightly harder to believe than that. Are you ready? My parents actually came for a visit. (If this doesn’t sound unbelievable to you, you’ve obviously never owned goats.)
The main point [...]

When Josh and Adiel came to see us in July they brought presents for the kids which mostly consisted of books because, honestly, what else is there? One of the books is You Can Do Anything, Daddy! by Michael Rex. I usually think that most children’s book are simplistic and insulting to children’s intelligence, but [...]
