I have the blessing of living in the same city as my three children and grandchildren. I also have a business that allows me the flexibility to regularly spend time with each of them.

Helping Children Become Superheroes
This past weekend we celebrated my grandson’s third birthday. What fun! His birthday party theme was superheroes. My daughter made him a superhero cape and a superhero crown.
What to Expect When You Become a Grandma
I’m at an age where many of my friends are becoming grandparents. Some grudgingly, others with great excitement. I’ve always wanted to be a grandma.
Grandma’s Prayers
I am so fortunate to have my grandchildren living close to me. I know many, many grandparents don’t have the benefit of being able to see their grandchildren regularly.
Outdoor Activities for Grandkids
It’s summer, and for me the best time to spend with my grandkids! The days are longer, school is out and we can do so many things outside! I’m a nature freak, so for me, it’s a great time to use whatever we see outside to teach.
Grandma’s Gifts
When my daughter was about three years old, she and my mother, Meme (her name for her grandma), were very close. Even though my mother lives in Arkansas, we spent quite a bit of time with her and my dad.
Rolling With Changes After Two New Grandchildren
Life is full of changes and change can be a challenge no matter who you are. Often times, change, good or bad, complicates things even more. Some personalities are just resistant to change while others are pretty adaptable.
Spending Time with Grandma
Exciting times are coming to our house soon! Both my daughter and my daughter-in-law are having babies this month. Because they both live in Lincoln, I’m planning to take the older children whenever that time comes.
Staying Healthy as a Grandma
My husband, Mark and I have both shed significant amounts of weight and begun living a healthier lifestyle. Crossing the half-century barrier, becoming empty nesters, and hearing “grandma” and “grandpa” for the first time may have had something to do with it!
