This life is a gift and I want to cherish each moment...so I am inspired to write, mostly for my own sanity but also to document the memories that are made with each day that passes. I love my life! My Jesus, my husband and my children make me a better person...I am blessed!Kerry Wrighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12825212294455211545noreply@blogger.comBlogger15125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2383052872629718012.post-23467677753121220582012-10-23T13:04:00.000-07:002012-10-23T13:04:21.427-07:00

Wow, it's really been since May since I have posted.  Where does the time go?  How did I let an entire summer slip by without sharing?  There have been many moments where I have thought...I have GOT to sit down and blog about this, but life got in the way and well here we are and it's October.  I have resolved that I have simply got to do better.  I have got to make time

It's Sunday afternoon and as I sit on my front porch while my littlest girl is napping and my hubby is doing his thing....I must write about a reflection, better yet a life lesson that I have learned through an experience of the past couple of weeks. Here's the back story... If you don't know us, we are animal people...best known as horse people.  My dad owns and run his own boarding

I am conflicted about how to present this post (which will likely turn into a series of posts by the time I'm done)...I could go the sappy, emotional, cry my eyes out route where I go on and on about what April 18th really meant---that Adison is four.  That she has taught me so much with each year that passes.  That a full four years now seperates me from the moment that she

I have a very intelligent (or as I call it, BRILLIANT) little 3 year old on my hands...her name is Adison. She is beautiful, strong-willed, determined, and very easily intrigued. Being the literal minded child that she is, she needs to know the how's and why's of the things in her world.  She understands so much and is constantly seeking to discover more.  And so, I

I am NOT a winter person...period.  If you haven't noticed, I haven't even posted anything since November!  Mainly because I got a bit overwhelmed with the holiday events and planning and shopping and such but more than that...because honestly, I haven't felt like writing.  I get the winter blues EVERY YEAR without fail.  Even in a mild/warmish winter like we're having...I'm

We had been talking about it for quite some time leading up to....ADISON'S FIRST HAIRCUT.  No doubt that God has a sense of humor- he certainly had a hand (and a giggle) in making this memory one I could NEVER forget. Wednesday night November 9, 2011 ...was a great night at home with the family.  Enjoyed a nice dinner, sat down for family movie night (we watched Cars 2) and all was

Yesterday I received a message on Facebook from a friend who I haven't seen in YEARS.  We weren't ever "close" and don't keep in touch but isn't that the magic of social networking...you get to be impacted and inspired by the lives of others.  In this case, the message was simple but contained a loaded question... Her question: " I wanted to ask you something...I know you work and yet

In years past, it has always been that I was working on days like Halloween so I am always SO rushed once I get off work to get everything done and everyone ready to head out for festivities.  This year, I purposely tood the day off so I could prepare and have plenty of time to have fun with my kids...and that I did! Adison and I spent the majority of the day hanging out at home...playing

Time to play catch up considering my internet has been on the brink for a couple weeks... Our weekend adventure began indoors on a Friday night.  Krystin, Paige (Krystin's BFF and one of my favorite teens) and I decided to make homemade granola.  Healthy and YUMMY!  Here are a few photos of the process... I must sadly admit though...as amazing as these girls did putting

Friday's are my day off...besides the weekend of course.  I "survive" 4 days of long, hard work and busy schedules to and Friday's are my reward.  Typically I stay home and clean house because by Friday, it looks like a tornado has blown slap through the center of it!  But, last Friday I was blessed with the gift of a clean house, courtesy of my amazing and generous husband. As I

I've been in pain for 3 weeks now....2 weeks of neck pain, 1 week of low back pain.  Needless to say, I've had enough!  But, through the pain and frustration comes realization- it's the little things that make life matter.  It's the little things that I take for granted...things that I do normally without thinking, simply because I can.  It's the little moments that are carved

It's almost impossible to believe summer is over already!!  But with the beginning of a new season comes new resolve from this Mommy....less TV time, more adventure!  One of my family's "worst" habits (I say worst that way because this is simply my opinion) is that we spend a LOT of time with the TV on in our house, even when we aren't watching it, it's on and it's background noise.&

I am very proud to say that Krystin and I are close...we LOVE to talk.  Not only do we love to talk with spoken word but we recently began a journal called "Just between us" (very cool but yes...it's private so I won't share), this journal journey will be another gateway for communication and sharing between us as she grows. Some of our conversations are silly and we often end up laughing

I admire and desire the trusting nature of a child.  If we could "hold on" to that trusting nature into adulthood...our lives would be so different.  Example: we recently bought a book for Adison to read at bedtime titled "Sweet Dreams Princess"...a biblical devotional for young girls.  Many nights we sit in Adison's room with her and read her a bible story that then leads

My Savior, Jesus Christ.  He is everything to me.  He loved me enough to save me despite my undeserving ways and he continues to love me through this life despite my repetitive mistakes.  Because of him and what he did for me, I am given  freedom to walk in grace and peace. With his guidance I strive to be all that he has called me to be.  He deserves all of the credit,
