A Backseat Driver

For the past 2 months, I have been recovering from surgery. This has been a very slow and sometimes frustrating process. This surgery has been my 4th to correct complications from my C-sections.




So, I have learned at times I have to be a "back seat mom". No lifting kids, running with kids, or chasing kids. Even though I did get to watch them have fun in the sandbox and clip coupons. -She is an apprentice of Gal in the Middle.

National Character Counts Week!

October 17-23rd in National Character Counts week. A good time for all of us to have an "ethics physical". Just think about.....
Am I a good mom to my kids?
Do I treat my co-workers and family with respect?
Am I trying to protect the environment? Hmmm-well I am getting quite a collection of reusable grocery sacks:)
The list of ethical questions can go on and on!

Character Counts! is a great program that helps all of us think about ethics and character and what is means to be a person that strives to be an example of good character.
