There have been times when I called my husband and asked him to dutifully stop at the store and buy milk, eggs, diapers and – yes – even tampons on his way home from work. That is normal and is something he has grown more accustomed to now that we have kids. Because [...]

December 14th, 2011 Amy Dunbar Source: brassyapple.blogspot.com via Amy on Pinterest Which would you rather have, knowledge or wisdom? I know I am skipping a couple of the sayings here, but this is the one expression on this print that just bugs me. Don’t get me wrong I am all for knowledge and learning. Growing up I was often [...]
Pinspired to be Work Hard (3 of many)
December 13th, 2011 Amy Dunbar Source: brassyapple.blogspot.com via Amy on Pinterest “There is no substitute for hard work.” Thomas Edison How do you define hard work? I think of blisters on the hands after raking a yard laden with leaves, legs that are tired because they have stood all day checking in on weary patients, eyes that threaten to [...]
Pinspired to be AMAZING (2 of many)
December 12th, 2011 Amy Dunbar Source: brassyapple.blogspot.com via Amy on Pinterest Do you remember your physical education classes? You know . . . that required class that few people but the jocks really liked.

Pinspired to be AMAZING (1 of many)
December 7th, 2011 Amy Dunbar Source: brassyapple.blogspot.com via Amy on Pinterest I love word art. It makes me pause in the middle of my busy goal-oriented life to visually consider something I wouldn’t have thought about otherwise. Take this little piece nestled in amongst nature. It is cluttered and busy and full, yet somehow it works. And instead of [...]
Pinspired to Rock Out
December 5th, 2011 Amy Dunbar Source: lh5.ggpht.com via Amy on Pinterest Do you like music? I know, it’s a funny question especially since I can’t think of anyone who doesn’t like music. I love rock, hip-hop, classical, Christian, and even some country. My tastes are pretty eclectic and vary with my mood. Both of my boys love for [...]

December 3rd, 2011 Amy Dunbar Source: marycorder.blogspot.com via Amy on Pinterest Be the Light When Big C turned two, he learned how to climb on top of his dresser and turn his light on after we had put him to bed. He would turn it on, then climb back into bed and fall asleep. As I went to bed, [...]

December 2nd, 2011 Amy Dunbar Source: marycorder.blogspot.com via Amy on Pinterest Spread the Light Snot and coughs and boogers and runny eyes . . . and toddlers equals germs everywhere. They don’t mean to do it, in fact they don’t even think about it. Take Lil’ C, he has a perpetual snotty nose these days and it doesn’t phase [...]

I love these shows. I have loved dancing since I was a little kid. My parents and their friends were often the audience of [...]

November 30th, 2011 Amy Dunbar Source: marycorder.blogspot.com via Amy on Pinterest Travel Light When I think of traveling light, I think of when my husband and I went to Europe for three weeks before the kids were born. Even though we were going for an extended trip, we decided that bringing a carry-on only would possibly alleviate hassles. So [...]
