Decorating our Gingerbread House!


One of our Traditions: Gingerbread house Decorating


One of my favorite Christmas Decorations for our Christmas table is our Gingerbread House. We usually make one in early December and by New Years! it's mostly eaten! Yes, when family members go by they usually take a piece off the House! It's one of the things I enjoy! Even my granddaughter decorates her own Gingerbread House! I start collecting candy after Halloween. The more candy, in my opinion, the better the House! So much Fun!

Reflecting on childhood dream of being a Ninja! LOL!

  Ninja, is what I want to be when I grow up! LOL!  "What do you want to be when you grow up Belle?" I had always wanted to be a Mom, but for some reason that wasn't an acceptable answer to the above question at school. It should of been. But that's another post.  So, since being a mom wasn't acceptable to teachers, I would always say a Ninja. For several years I had a black Ninja costume that I would wear for Halloween! Eventually the costume didn't fit right anymore! I would tell people as a child I wanted to be Ninja because I wanted to somehow fight for Justice, similar to a superhero and ninja legends are all I knew.  My memories of being a Ninja resurfaced as my granddaughter ends her year at  taekwondo. Great Job! on your Belt Test Olive!!!! My husband, Son and Daughter all took taekwondo lessons at some point in their lives! Wow, I can't believe my granddaughter enjoys taekwondo. Great Job!

The Heartbreaking Ripple Effects of Divorce: A Grandmother's Plea

  The Heartbreaking Ripple Effects of Divorce: A Grandmother's Plea Life's fragility struck me recently - both through my own health challenges and by witnessing Jay Leno's remarkable resilience after his recent fall. Like Jay Leno, who returned to work swiftly despite injury, I'm learning to move forward with determination, understanding that adversity doesn't define us, but how we respond to it does. As Thanksgiving approaches, a deeper pain weighs on my heart - the silent epidemic of divorce that tears families apart more thoroughly than any physical ailment. This week, in a crowded waiting room, I discovered I wasn't alone. Surrounded by fellow grandparents, aunts, and cousins, we shared stories that echoed with haunting similarity - tales of alienation, false accusations, and heartbreaking separations. Bonding over vibrant hair and endless laughter 💜 My granddaughter Olive has become the unwitting victim of this familial destruction. Knowing she...

Mommy Got!

  Mommy Got!  I went to the store and there were several signs out selling items for Mother's Day. So what do Mother's want for Mother's Day? Mommy Got! Is a song written by my granddaughter and one of the best Mother's Day gifts ever gifted to me! for Mother's Day!  Granddaughter Working on Song My granddaughter, Olive has a beautiful voice, but her mom (born deaf) is now tone deaf has a not-so-great singing voice to most. However, Olive loves the sound of her mom's voice. Olive heard that  one day everyone in Heaven will sing praises to the Lord. So, her mom's voice will surely add to the beautiful melody of the songs in Heaven, right?  But could her mom's voice add to the beauty of songs now?  After hearing   KB's Song 10K , Olive became inspired to write a song where she would incorporate singing with talking (rap) for her mom like KB. Olive, wrote a song she could sing with her mom!  together!  My Granddaughter was so excited she ...
