Forty Years Later

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family, Writing/ 7 Comments/ 154

. That is one of my all time favorite pictures. Micah at about a day old just chilling in his bassinet in the hospital. He slept like that often and I think that is how he was all curled up inside of me and it Continue reading →

Celebrations and Eclipse Ohio Style

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family, Travel, Writing/ 6 Comments/ 497

It’s been a great couple of weeks and Chris and I just got back from a road trip to Ohio – land of buckeyes and gray skies. The original reason for the trip was to celebrate some milestones in the lives of my sister and Continue reading →

Maksim Turns Four!

Beth Ann Chiles/ Animals/ 34 Comments/ 557

Maksim turns four years old today and it is time to celebrate. This cat has brought us so much happiness – it is ridiculous. His antics keep us (and the internet) amused and I can’t imagine what we did before he arrived. Holly, on the Continue reading →

To Our Sweet Boy

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family/ 34 Comments/ 680

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/ 741

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 →

It’s Birthday Time!

Beth Ann Chiles/ Animals/ 28 Comments/ 15350

Today is Maksim’s 3rd birthday! Woo hoo! I “might” have gotten a birthday candle to put on his breakfast this morning. I know it is silly but this cat has been THE best thing ever. He makes us laugh and is still all kitten at Continue reading →

Birthday Musings

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 46 Comments/ 440

Today’s my birthday! My family and friends always make me feel really special on my special day and it sometimes seems to stretch on for a week or more which is kind of nice, isn’t it? As I get older I don’t really “need” anything Continue reading →

Old Girls in Low Cotton

This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...

The Good Girl
by Mary Kubica
I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

All the Light We Cannot See
by Anthony Doerr
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...

An Abundance of Katherines
by John Green
Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
