Breathe Deep: May 2015
http://smilesgoesmiles.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 29, 2015. I am sitting on the deck as I compile this post. The sounds of children playing, birds singing and frogs beginning their evening chorus interrupt the early evening stillness. The air smells of rain with a hint of apple blossom fragrence. It is a perfect setting to reflect on days gone by and catch you all up on the goings on of my life. Mikey is such a little stinker, and has completely stolen my heart. :). Michael the day he was born. Michael at six weeks. A couple of months before...

Breathe Deep: September 2014
http://smilesgoesmiles.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 24, 2014. Two thousand fourteen, resolution number four. My intention was to be careful and avoid injury. But I am of the Mark Pauls family. One of the things that we seem to be born with is a competitive nature. That competitiveness drove me to become one of those "all in or all out" types which can be both a very good, and a very bad thing. This attitude became a big problem when it came to the runner that I wanted to become. So I stop, until healed. I learned about different paces...

Wednesday, February 11, 2015. To be able to know this girl is a privilege. To be able to love this girl is a blessing. To be able to call this girl my best friend is a treasure.

Her heart is big, and I love to watch her as she shares her love,. And the love of Christ to all those around her. We do everything together, share everything with each other. Our pastor pr...

Breathe Deep: April 2014
http://smilesgoesmiles.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 30, 2014. Well, here it is, the last day of April. Successfully I completed the "blog a day" challenge, and checked off my first item on this year's resolution list. Hold on. It's coming. This adventure was incredibly fun, though at times really challenging. There were times that evening would roll around and I would begin to panic because I had not even given thought to my blog post yet! I hope to continue to post often (cuz' I'm on a rooooolll :) but, not quite so nearly every day :).

Breathe Deep: August 2014
http://smilesgoesmiles.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 20, 2014. These past couple of days I have found myself struggling in a deep place. God has been teaching me how to let go, trying to get me to a place of complete surrender. But I still find myself on the fence. I was reading the bible yesterday in search of answers and I came across Hebrews chapter eleven where the writer is talking about faith and begins to list a number of people in history past that had complete faith in God even though they didn't know where it would take them.

Saturday, August 29, 2015. Ending the Picture Drought. Looking back on my blog, I noticed that it has been a while since I have posted any pictures. The reason being that in the busyness that is summer, I have not taken the time to pull my camera out and capture moments. So, today. if you would look through the pictures on my phone, you would see this. Pictures of little brothers making silly face when they find your phone unattended. Of baby smiles and squishy faces that brighten up my every day. Anyway...

Tuesday, July 29, 2014. Happy Birthday Tooooo Jaden! It seems like only yesterday that we welcomed this adorable little red head into our family. But today is his fourth birthday! Since the day of his birth is drawing to a close, instead of writing any more words, I'll leave you with a select few of the multitude of adorable pictures that we have of him over the years. Every little smile that you will see is just a reflection of the joy and liveliness that he has brought into our home. Since we were only...
