About Me

My life consists of one full-time job after another and I wouldn't have it any other way. I believe that, sometimes, bad things happen for no reason at all. But the strength within gets us through difficult times.

A Night under the stars!

My boy is so sweet and somewhat of a nerd - like myself. Although he is SUCH an energetic individual, he is also smart and thoughtful.


One day, he came home with a book he somehow inherited from somewhere - It was a book about the stars! It had sky maps of the stars and explained each consolation. He immediately started looking through it and asking questions about each consolation on the pages. I decided we HAD to go up into the hills behind our house to look at the stars so he could see how it all comes together. He was so excited!
We live in a part of town that is a bit more remote, has NO streetlights, and has some great spots to spread out a blanket and look at the stars. The only problem with my plan - it was about 10 degrees at night. Darn my California brain! I forget so often about the weather around here.

Regardless, we braved the cold, packed up some hot cocoa and head for the hills....
No matter if he actually learned anything - It was peaceful and we enjoyed spending some special time together.
