To Our Sweet Boy

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family/ 34 Comments/ 783

Dearest sweet Theo, Today you turn two and while circumstances kept your Grampa and I from being with you to celebrate, it doesn’t mean that we aren’t wishing we were there. We were so very disappointed and sad when we realized we could not come Continue reading →

Another Year Passes

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family/ 20 Comments/ 872

It’s November 10th and this date will always be a difficult one for me. My mom would have been 93 years old today. She has definitely been on my mind a lot the past couple of weeks and I am sure that it is because Continue reading →

Happiness with a Side of Remembrance

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family/ 14 Comments/ 784

Sometimes I like to scroll through old blog posts to see what I was blogging about years ago. When you have been at it as long as I have sometimes the ideas are elusive when it comes to writing. At times I might repurpose the Continue reading →

Leisure Time

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family, Writing/ 12 Comments/ 741

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family, Writing/ 12 Comments/ 601

I have the privilege of having so many scrapbooks and albums from my parents and every once in awhile I take the time to look through the fragile pages. It gives me the chance to see who they were when they were younger and how Continue reading →

This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...
