In a few weeks we will be “downsizing”; moving into a smaller house. Our current home is a 3 bedroom, and we are going to squeeze into a 2 bedroom.
We don’t have to be out of our current home until early July, but we have been moving in phases.
Today we completed The Great Purge; we [...]

During the course of my studies while earning my master’s degree in teaching, I remember reading something about the developmental characteristics of the teen age years.
Something that stuck out to me was that teens have a strong sense of justice.

Luxury is, to me, being able to experience something pure and wonderful that makes you think, “THIS is the way it should always be!”
By that definition, “luxury” does not have to equal “expensive”.
Luxury can be found in the handiwork of any artisan who knows what he or she is doing.
Mystic Wonders has many fabulous [...]

Have you ever seen a plant that is responsive to touch?
We got to play with some one day and Jojo was absolutely entranced as he repeatedly stuck a thin blade of grass onto the plant’s leaves, watched it contract, then waited for it to open again so that the entire scene could be repeated!

Confession: I am the mom who doesn’t put batteries in my kids’ noisy toys.
Yes it is true. We have a barn that no longer makes mooing noises nor plays “Old MacDonald”. We have a toddler remote control that remains silent instead of counting 1 to 10 and saying “hello” in three languages. I could [...]
