I learned something new yesterday! If you’ve been around long, you know I love my Kindle! I do probably 80% {maybe more!} of my reading on my Kindle. It’s so convenient! I especially love that I can get library books without leaving home. Woo hoo! When I first got my Kindle and read through various [...] Read more »
I Gotta Read :: April
April is gone-zo. I can hardly believe it! May means the last month of school. {Whoa.} And that summer is just around the corner! {Yippee!} It means the days are turning hot, hot, hot. The sun is shining bright. And we have afternoon thunderstorms. May means that we are almost to the halfway mark in [...] Read more »
I Gotta Read :: March
Yes, I’m a day late, but I didn’t want to interrupt my reflections on gratitude for Holy Week with a “gotta read” post, so we’ll just pretend that I’m not really posting this on April 1. Yikes! April 1! That’s April Fool’s Day…Totally forgot! As much as I think April Fool’s Day is fun, I [...] Read more »
I Gotta Read :: February
February is over?! Someone please tell me how that can possibly be?! I simply can’t believe that tomorrow is the first day of March.

I Gotta Read :: January
There is no official Booking It challenge like there was last year, but I’m still going to {try} to devote a day out of the month to talk about my current reads. January has been quite the book filled month for me. In part due to the miscarriage and spending lots of time in bed [...] Read more »

Christmas Books We Love So Much
It all started many years ago…My aunt would send us a Christmas book each year. We loved to read them to ourselves and we loved to have Mom read them to us. It was a special tradition. And we had a beautiful collection of children’s Christmas books. When I had T I figured it was [...] Read more »
Booking It: Kisses From Katie
So were you expecting a little “Mid-Week Inspiration” today? Sike! or Syke! or…how do you spell that word we used back in the day when we were all, “Hey, gimme five!” And then yanked our hand away all cool like. Yeah… Moving on… Since today is the 12th of the month, that means it’s Booking [...] Read more »
Big Things
I just finished reading Kisses from Katie for the Booking It book club {I’ll review it next week}. But…There’s just this one thing that keeps resonating in my mind.
