Seven is such a fun age! Amara was here last weekend and the three of us watched the Little Princess together. It was another great movie night and another great movie. However, the real fun was Sunday morning. My cousin had sent me a recipe for Sweet Cinnamon Biscuits and she thought Amara and I [...]

Amara Meets Curly Top
Sometimes the old classics truly are the best! I have been seeing a lot of commercials recently for the new Shirley Temple “Little Darling DVD Collection”. I used to love all the Shirley Temple movies when I was a little girl and I got to wondering what Amara would think of them. Amara loves to [...]
Especially for Twursula
Amara made her bed so carefully the other morning and I asked her if she makes her bed at home and she said No. So I asked her why she makes her bed here and she says “because Twursula likes it that way”. Isn’t she the sweetest child?

Amara had brought Yogi Bear, [...]
