Boys and Guns: Crossing the Line

I was finishing up some work on my computer one day last week, knowing that it would be soon time to pick up the boys from the bus stop, when the phone rang. I looked at the number on the handset and recognized it right away as the phone number for the boys school.

The teacher reassured me immediately that the boys were fine, but I could tell from the tone of her voice, … [Read more...]

Boy Adventures ~ Water Falls

It was the last week of Summer when we met a grandma on the playground who told us about this neat little watering hole she liked to take her kids to when they were little and still brings her granddaughter.

Now, I don't think we played where she intended us too, as there is a nice swimming area that has easy access, but our family has an adventurous spirit and we wandered downstream to … [Read more...]
