The Story of My Life

My first year out of college, while in graduate school, I worked in a local high school library to assist daily. The dear librarian there was diagnosed with cancer and the BOE hired me full time to assist. We had a senior student who was so amazing, that even as her "teacher"= we clicked. She was a smart, mature soul- beautiful inside and out. She was always a talented writer, still is. I recently discovered she was a blogger too. I have been following her and she me- LOVING the reconnection. I got an email from her today asking me to post her story on my blog. Brandy is rallying the prayer warriors for her baby. I know many of my loyal readers are faithful prayers..... So please, read the story at Brandy's blog and keep her precious family near to your hearts..... and let's help hold them up near to the hear of God in the next few months. http://doodleandbean.blogspot.com

I have a stainless steel fridge and have hated that my magnets we have collected on travels and through the years were downstairs in the garage on the old fridge. I got a magnetic white board at Target this weekend and hung it in the hallway to the laundry room along with some travel photos. Turned out cute! Could that count as a thrifty Thursday, Leigh?? One at the bottom says "Mom's Mood!" and the kids have been running over all week moving the peg accordingly. I love it because it has many memories stuck on that board!
