Simple Remembering and Reality

Sometimes it is easy
                             to forget
                                        what it was like having two children under the age of three
                                                                                                                                        at the same time.

Go figure. Continue reading Simple Sweat Bee

Simple Carpenters and Blueprints….

Although I do question the actual “simplicity” of either a carpenter or a blueprint….I am by no means an expert, not even close. I am simply amazed at what carpenters can do. They can build things that I can only imagine. Sometimes they use a blueprint, sometimes nothing but their vivid imagination and a plan sketched out in their head!

My boys always loved to build with Legos. In fact, one enjoys creating with wood to this day. And another can build websites and designs. I am amazed when they send me pictures of window benches, work cabinets, web site and other such things. Continue reading Simple Carpenters and Blueprints
