My Unexpected House Guest

This lovely little friend was running around my house the other day. I actually thought he was a toy at first. Imagine my shriek of surprise when he made a little dash. He is between 12 and 14 inches long, and I think he is very pretty

Fall Colors

Living in Southern California, without the beauty of the seasons changing, has always been a little bit of a bummer for me. However, this is the view from my family room window, every night around 6 p.m. I really can not complain to much! I feel gratitude in my heart for the beauties all around!

A Mother's Greatest Fear

Do I worry about my children and what kind of teenagers they will become? Of course, who wouldn't. I have to admit however, that I take my kids and all their goodness for granted far to often. This last Friday, Halloween night, I got a look at what the future of one of my children could hold and frankly, it was terrifying. I will never take his sweet cheeks and gentle hugs for granted again!! And every night while he sleeps I will whisper in his ear, "I am a GOOD BOY! I will ALWAYS listen to my mother." Hoping for the best is good but a little brain washing is GREAT!!

Happy Halloween
