thankful: friday Nov 17
Yesterday I was thankful for a safely arrived visitor:
I guess I’m a lot of things: a wife, a mom, a daughter, a sister, a crafter, a cook, a reader, a writer, a homemaker, a pianist, and probably a lot more too. But at the end of the day, I’m just a Christian trying to find and obey God’s will.

Yup, my name is Danica. Like the race car driver, whose name I know, but whose career I know nothing about. A Nascar fan I am not. Things like reading, playing piano, gardening, cooking, sewing, writing, and keeping my bathroom bleached are more up my alley. Read more »My maiden name is Sinclair (not Patrick), and I come from good stock. (So says my husband, anyway!) I'm the oldest of 9 kids--and my parents are neither insane, uninformed, or Catholic. They're actually the best parents you could ask for. Seriously. (And, consequently, I think pretty highly of my siblings, too, whose blogs you can access from the links below.) I've joined a new clan, though, and my husband and I have been "leaving-and-cleaving" for 2 years and counting. We have a son who you'll read much (too much?) about. Oh. And there are pictures of him, too--hundreds of them--should you care to click on over to my flickr account. I'm a stay at home mom who is redefining that title--I literally stay at home as much as I possibly can. I love to be home! Home, by the way, is in Northern California, although my roots are in a lil' ol' town in Northern New York. Lastly, I take all blame for any ridiculous, outlandish, illogical posts. Anything worth commenting on or linking to is due to my husband's encouragement. In the spirit of the Little engine That Could, "He thinks I can, He thinks I can, He thinks I can,...", and sometimes, that's all a wife needs.

Remember when he was very small and you would always want him to stay small? to stay a baby? and i would also tell you that he’s got to grow up sometime? yeah. all his recent photos all i say to myself is “stay small little boy, stay small”

Jameson would have to win “best hair” amongst the toddlers… wait babies… no toddlers. ;)

@Heather: Funny, I said near the opposite: “Danica, that boy needs a haircut bad.”
…apparently he has to wait until he sees his aunt in mid-December!!!

Yea!!! I can’t wait — I love hearing that he needs to wait for his Aunt Beans[z] for a cut. :) Can’t wait to see all of you here!

Hi Danica :) What a precious picture! I am praying with you for a lovely visit together. And I have to add that I love J’s sweet curly hair - oh keep it long while you can :) Love, Q

I have been trying to figure out how to post links ever since I saw that article yesterday on parents facing jail time for lack of immunizations. Pathetic, both my efforts and the courts.
Maybe my geek son will have mercy and help me out. I’ve wasted way too much time searching the help button, the sidebar instructions, etc.
