The Aged Eye at Daddy’s Birthday party was treated to some new sights as seeing glimpses of the past. Surely the little boy knew he was going to a big party to celebrate Daddy’s birthday, but walking in the door with his cool swagger of importance, he seemed surprised to see so many faces. The first offspring of the birthday boy, RC, two and a … Continue reading The Aged Eye at Daddy’s Birthday Party
Report From Aged Eye-Witness- ===Slow-Pitch Softball 5-13-13=== Sneaking up from behind Ryley, perfectly seated upon the bench and engrossed with “crowns” and paper, he finally caught my eye, I saw the “Oh” mouth, and heard those words again, “MaMaMa!” I quickly put a blanket down on that cold cold bench ( under Dawn, Ryley and myself) and he then lifted his arm to hug me! Almost the best part of … Continue reading Insights: Report From Aged Eye-Witness
On Monday night, I received 6 joyous blessings: 1) I watched you play ball – one of my all-time favorite things to do! 2) I was greeted at the field by a very small pair of open arms, fully outstretched -( I might as well have been the most decorated VIP in history!) with the music to my ears, “MaMaMa!!!!!” and a smile on the face of an amazingly … Continue reading Insights from a Great- Grandmother

He always wants to make sure that … Continue reading Heartwarmer

There is nothing like hearing your husband read to your children your favorite book. Seeing your husband dancing with your infant daughter to no music at all is precious! Ashley Continue reading Heartwarmer
When my daughter, 2 months, cries, my son, 18 months, will go over and make sure she is alright. Yesterday, she was crying in the swing and my son went over and started to rock the swing. He was “talking” to her. The best part was that she stopped crying. She was content watching him. My son loves his sister and is over protective of … Continue reading Heartwarmer
Consider this- ability has nothing to do with chronological age. It has more to do with the age of the mind and body. Sometimes my 5 year old can do things my 8 year old can’t like blow bubbles or work the video. I would do him an injustice to expect him to do something because his younger sister does or because he is older. How often … Continue reading Insights
