Behind The Red Door: April 2013
http://behindthered-door.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Behind The Red Door. Tuesday, April 2, 2013. In protest to all the cute Easter dresses and crafts available for little girls, and the lack of cute things for boys, I organized a bow tie making day with a few of our good friends. We got a picture of the handsome boys wearing their ties (and us moms) at church on Easter. Isn't it a fine looking group of little friends? Posted by Amber and Henry. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Behind The Red Door: July 2014
http://behindthered-door.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Behind The Red Door. Wednesday, July 2, 2014. Wet and Wild Wednesday. Have you ever wondered what would happen if you filled 100 water balloons and set a group of three year olds loose with them outside? I think the day was a success. Rarely has our back yard been filled with so much squealing, laughing, and hyper energy. And for a group of preschoolers there were relatively few altercations that required adult intervention. Here are a few pictures from our wet morning. Posted by Amber and Henry.

Behind The Red Door: Mother's Day: counting my blessings
http://behindthered-door.blogspot.com/2014/05/mother-day-counting-my-blessings.html
Behind The Red Door. Sunday, May 11, 2014. Mothers Day: counting my blessings. Today I'm feeling very lucky to be the mother of two wonderful kids. They are two very special and unique individuals, a and I'm so blessed to get to spend time with them and help them grow. I've had a lot of different experiences, worked a lot of different jobs and met a lot of interesting people, but I have learned and grown more from being a mother than any other experience. Both kiddos the day they were born.

Behind The Red Door: January 2014
http://behindthered-door.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Behind The Red Door. Friday, January 24, 2014. Since I'm so behind on posts, let me just do a quick one to celebrate Henry's graduation last month. After two solid years of classes and capstone work (while working full time) Henry finished his MBA through the Naval Postgraduate school. This was us after the ceremony. It felt great to be outside and by the water. We went a couple times to fishermans a wharf. Posted by Amber and Henry. Once Henson got used to the strong smell (we had a couple close calls w...

Behind The Red Door: Now I've heard everything
http://behindthered-door.blogspot.com/2014/04/now-i-heard-everything.html
Behind The Red Door. Thursday, April 17, 2014. Now Ive heard everything. I have come to accept that when you are pregnant you will receive unsolicited advice and questions from strangers. There is just something about a pregnant belly that makes otherwise rational people loose all boundaries. This doesn't bother me any more. In fact, I kind of get a kick out of some of the crazy comments. However today I got maybe the strangest one I have ever heard. Yes, a hernia. And yes, not me, the baby. Story time w...

039;Bring good tidings of Good' — Isaiah 52:7. Listen to Mustn’ts. Listen to Mustn’ts, child, listen to the Don’ts. Listen to the Shouldn’ts, the Impossibles, the Won’ts. Listen to the Never Haves, then listen close to me. Anything can happen, child, Anything can be. Memory days come on holidays and birthdays and days that remind you to remember. Memory days come on days like today. Unapologetic evil had exploded into my world as it had for my grandmother decades before. Today I remembered Friendships an...

039;Bring good tidings of Good' — Isaiah 52:7. 8220;Thank You, More Please? In Life as I know it. 8220;I’ve been feeling lately that, maybe I’m more resilient than I thought.”. One more year down and only God knows how many more I have to go. Already 2012 has introduced an insane collage of joy, hope, pain, love, friendship, laughter, tears, hard lessons, and tender mercies. I hesitate to think what the coming months will bring me. 2011 dawned with many good-byes and a great big adventure! Since I left h...

An open letter to my 14 year old self. | Publish Peace Place
https://publishpeaceplace.wordpress.com/2012/12/03/an-open-letter-to-my-14-year-old-self
039;Bring good tidings of Good' — Isaiah 52:7. An open letter to my 14 year old self. My dear, you are in for a rather rude awakening. The ‘Happily Ever After’ as served up by Mr. Disney and most of Hollywood has set an unrealistic expectation. Writer/director Cameron Crowe put it best through the character of Elaine Miller when she said, “Look at this: an entire generation of Cinderellas and there’s no glass slipper.”. Experience provides perspective, and while I don’t believe that hindsight is re...
