Five Months and Other Tidbits

-

And the little man is 5 months old already. And yes, he is almost always ready with a smile. You'll get a laugh the quickest if you are his sister.  He is appearing to be the skinny one in the family, growing by miniscule amounts each week.  He is loving food for the most part: squash, apples, bananas, avocados. Peas? No thank you. After trying them three different times, I still couldn't get him to eat them. 


Really mom, you're pulling my shirt down why?


Sibling love


Even if today, she starts crying and saying, "Logan pinched me." I can see how the next few years will go. LOL. 

And so another month rolls around in the Glick household. How are we through the first month of 2018 already? I don't have as a good of a handle on my goals as I wanted. I don't have my life down pat like it was going to be by this time. 

But I console myself with the fact that it's February, a whole brand new month to try again, to work on forming habits all over again. And so we try again. 

And now, in deference to that, I should probably go plan my menus for the month of February instead of wishing they were done already.

Fragrant Whiffs of Joy by Dorcas Smucker (It's Giveaway time)

Ah yes, this was just what the doctor ordered. I've wanted to review Dorcas' last book or two and was always too chicken to ask, but this time I threw caution to the wind and said, "Yes, I want to review your book." And I'm so glad I did. It was the perfect book for this stage in my life. Short, easy to read chapters that can be picked up and read whenever and wherever. They are guaranteed to either make you laugh, smile, cry, or or just give you that ah-ha feeling that someone else experiences life like that too.  I could quote from pretty much every chapter something that struck me in one of those ways, but I really want you to go buy the book so I won't do that many spoilers. I only want to give you a hint of what is to come in the book. First off, isn't the cover beautiful? I can dream of a kitchen table like that with the apple pie still steaming and the tea pot, or coffee pot more likely, full to the brim and a beautiful arrangement of flowers

With Every Memory by Janine Rosche

  The story opens with Lori returning home after a year in rehab following a car accident that left her with a traumatic brain injury and missing memories. She works hard to regain her former life, but as her memories return, things seem confusing and hard. What happened in those years she is missing in her memory? I'm not going to say more about the story; I don't want to give anything away, but you start to wonder pretty early on in the book, what actually happened. The story flips back and forth between Lori and her daughter, Avery.  This is a story of redemption, hope and healing. It is a story of grief and loss, a bit of rebellion, but a lot of love too. It's a story about faithfulness in the midst of unfaithfulness. All in all, it's a good book, and one that had me turning the pages as fast as I could to find out how everything came together in the end.  I really enjoyed this book and would be interested in reading more by Janine in the future. I received this boo
