Crossing Stones

I found this book at the library. This may not seem like such a surprise to you, but it’s always a thrill. I live in a small town that houses a small county library, and although it has a fireplace (+), it also has a huge metal staircase running directly through the main room (-).

Happy Birthday, Kid 4!

Sweet boy. Those words are used on lots of kids, but meant just for you. I love the way you laugh, you smile, you sing, you play. I love the way you care and tend. I love your responsibility, your willingness, your obedience. I love the gap where your front teeth should be. I love

The Relative Utility of Sinatra and Brando

Ironing. I hate it. Not the doing of it, precisely, but the time it takes away from anything really fulfilling. Like eating marshmallows right out of the bag, or reading a book, or painting my toenails.* But, hey – I’m not one to complain about an unpleasant task when instead I can make said task

Pets? Probably Not.

Once I talked about pets. Now, Kid 4 is at it again. As his birthday approaches, he’s asking for a turtle. Ick. They smell, I think. Husband agrees. Advise me, wise ones. Does Kid 4 actually need a pet to become a well-rounded, upright, employable adult at some point? And is there anything as easy

Once Was Lost (an Interview with Sara Zarr)

“Samara Taylor used to believe in miracles. She used to believe in a lot of things. But where there was once faith… there are now only questions.” Sara Zarr‘s “Once Was Lost” (Published by Little, Brown in October 2009) is the entwining of a personal crisis of faith and a community’s shared crisis – a

Go, Now. Find "Once Was Lost."

Monday we’ll be doing a blog interview with Sara Zarr, author of the newly-released “Once Was Lost” – giving you time to run out and purchase/borrow/locate/steal a copy to read over the weekend. You won’t be sorry. Unless you steal. Then your conscience will peck at you like an angry duck. So don’t steal it.
