A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow.

Wednesday Wisdom: Enjoy Autumn Even if it's Short Lived!



Although it often seems as if our planet is reducing the number of seasons from four to two, there still is reason to celebrate and marvel at autumn/fall. This is a time that we celebrate Halloween and Thanksgiving. This is when the trees explode with colors. It is as if God took the time to make them more brilliant to compensate for the dreary short days magnified by Daylight Saving Time. ( BTW--I think that all working moms should boycott that because it wreaks havoc on the kids! To read about my thoughts, click here.)

And it is the time is when we can finally rock our best fashions--at least in my opinion. I am a boots fanatic and I love that autumn allows me to wear cute boots instead of galoshes! (To read about my love for boots, click here.)  Here are two of my favorite autumn in Pittsburgh photos. I'm taking it all in because it snowed this week. So, before we know it, winter will be here!
