Only my boys would play with their clementines at snack time and pronounce to the world, “This is the Eye of Sauron!”. #LOTR |

I still believe in making wishes.

I was born in England and lived on military bases overseas until I turned 17 and my family ‘returned’ to the states. I later became a military wife and had two of my own military ‘brats’. This is cause near my heart. Theres a lot that military kids go through. The moment my dad came home from the gulf war when we were in England still sticks to my mind as one of the best days of my childhood. Seeing him alive and home, even better yet, that he surprised me at school after field hockey brought the biggest smile to my face.

| “Know what would be awesome? If everyone wore purple today. I’ve worn shirts of every color in support of all kinds of causes well this is one very near and dear to my heart. Very often the sacrifice that is made by the children of service members is overlooked. So today wear purple and if you know a military kid…give them an extra hug.” – anonymous |

The joys of living in another country are receiving care packages from family members ‘back home’. We received our Easter package from my in laws today and the boys were really excited to stretch out Easter just a little further. Besides what child would say no to more candy? Obviously not mine.

Watching live tv for the first time off my FIL’s slingbox. Almost a year since I’ve seen American commercials. Feel like Im back in the US.I love keeping journals, as does my little sister Zoe. In fact sometimes when I’m writing in my journals I think of Zoe and how she writes in cursive in hers. Not sure why this random fact comes to my mind, but it does. I clipped my flower hair clips on my journal here for a nice little photo op for Instagram.
