Read to Me: Inspirational Books from Hammond
Published on Sunday, February 14, 2010 by caryn "Let's read it again." Those are the daily sentiments of my 2 1/2 year old. He loves to read...and I love that about him. Admittedly, there are times when I really wish we could read something different. But connections are being made. So I read him that book again and again to his heart's content. If you knew...if you really knew what 20 minutes a day c... Read More » -

Fun with Frogs
Published on Sunday, February 14, 2010 by caryn Last night my husband and I celebrated Valentine's Day. He took me out to one of our favorite seafood restaurants and we watched Valentine's Day (which was so good!). Since my husband had been gone on business all week, we made the most of our dinner out alone by catching up on our week's activities. I brought my camera with me (I always have my camera with me) ... Read More » -

Feeling Blu?
Published on Saturday, February 13, 2010 by caryn Being that I'm a Southern California native, I hear the term "winter blues" and don't think much about it. The only "real"winters I've ever experienced were a few days in the South and a winter spent in Edinburgh. I specifically remember many, many days (in December) where the sun set before 4:00 pm and didn't rise again until just before 9. I don't ever get depre... Read More » -

Valentine’s Day Baking With McCormick

He is my right hand when it comes to making pancakes, muffins, scones, and cupcakes. Today, my son and I made "Love Bu... Read More » -

Published on Tuesday, February 9, 2010 by caryn I know this is a season in my life...but sleep deprivation is something I can't ever get used to.
