AS I SEE IT
Love of fishing with grandpa is passed on
She misses going fishing with her grandfather.
Perfect day was spent at garden fair
I felt like a kid in a candy store when my husband and I attended a local garden fair.
Kids in puddle gave her peace of mind
It was a simple picture.
Grandmother's mannerisms are passed on
My brother, David, made the long trip to my town to help my other brother, Michael, haul his new project home last weekend. They stopped by my house for a quick visit. As we all went out the front door an army of carpenter bees buzzed around us.
Family visits push to-do list aside
I am listening for a knock on the door.
Signs of summer beginning to appear
One of Gracie’s friends left her a present the other day. Gracie is our calico cat who never goes outside. Nevertheless, she has many friends who stroll through the yard and entice her to sprint from window to window just so they can visit.

Years have changed Easter celebration
Sometimes I am amazed at how much my life has changed through the years.
Beauty can be carved from plain wood
That was interesting. I attended a woodcarving show and exhibition this past Saturday. It was the first time I had been to one of these shows as an exhibitor. I shared a table with the president of our local carving club. Two of the other club members had tables on …
Season puts a spring in mom's step
It’s official. Spring has arrived at last.
Ferns planted in anticipation
A package of ferns jumped into my cart at the store today. A small bag of flower fertilizer soon joined it. I managed to escape before the entire cart overflowed with promises waiting to be fulfilled.
Angels helped shovel after recent snow
What a difference a week makes. Last weekend we woke up to almost a half-foot of new snow. As there was no chance of it melting on its own, we decided to shovel the white stuff off of the driveway.
