This is Miss Sophie. Miss Sophie and her "baby." She has several--the blue lion, the monkey, the little squirrels in their tree, but this--THIS ONE--is her favorite. I know they say dogs can't see color, but my girl is very partial to pink. There's no explaining it, it just is. She loves her pink baby,… Continue reading This Twisted Game of Fetch

The Birds Don’t Have a Weather App
The past couple of days have been unseasonably warm here in Georgia. I'm not complaining, mind you, but while I enjoyed the warm air and I think my toes might actually have defrosted, I knew better than to trust it. Sure enough, yesterday just before dark when Miss Sophie and I ventured out, there was… Continue reading The Birds Don’t Have a Weather App
I Wanna Come Back As…..
Growing up I remember Mama being in the middle of her day to dailies, blowing upwards to move the hair out of her eyes, sighing, and saying, "When I come back, I'm coming back as a show horse.

Click, click, click. I heard the clicking of her paws against the floor as I went into the kitchen to fix lunch for me and the littles. Miss Sophie followed at a close pace. It's become so much a part of my everyday that I hardly even notice she does it. I account for her… Continue reading Hopeful

This morning it was cold. And… Continue reading Waving in the Rain

They know my name, and yet, they call me "No" and "Stop It" almost more than they call me Sophie. And it's not like I picked out that name for myself or anything--they chose it.… Continue reading Guest Post: Miss Sophie Writes…..
The Cacophony of the Week–Playing Catchup
Tonight's catchup post is brought to you by a stomach bug/fever suffering young'un and a tired Mama. First of all, this happened this week. This color, out of all of them, was the most stubborn. It took three or four coats. The first one looked like my littles had painted the wall. It was such… Continue reading The Cacophony of the Week–Playing Catchup
What I’ve Learned From My Pup’s “Little Presents”
First of all, let me assure you, there will be no pictures with this post. You're welcome. We took Miss Sophie to her first night of Puppy Beginner's class last night. The littles have been calling it Puppy School, and Cooter insisted that we needed to go out and get her a backpack and pencils. … Continue reading What I’ve Learned From My Pup’s “Little Presents”
