I love Jesus but I drive like a jerk…

April 25, 2018February 10, 2020 / beachchairtracy/ 19 Comments

I have been tracking with Jesus for many years. I teach at a Christian school. I am involved in my local community of believers at a great church. Most of my circle of friends are of the same faith. Needless to say, I am far from perfect but each day I hope to become a better Christian. I do however …

After every storm

April 24, 2018May 26, 2020 / beachchairtracy/ 18 Comments

Remember after most storms in life you are given a rainbow. My life was not so much a storm as a long rain shower. I decided early on I would rather be alone for the right reasons than with someone for the wrong ones. That left me with many solo years. I met my husband when I was 42 and …

Review Solar Lamp

April 24, 2018 / beachchairtracy/ 2 Comments

I have a little girl who does not like to sleep in the dark. She came to us from foster care so this is a battle we choose not to fight. If she is comfortable with the light on…so be it. However, each night as I left the light on I felt a small amount of guilt. First for our …

Princess Plate…

April 18, 2018April 23, 2018 / beachchairtracy/ 8 Comments

I always said I would be the kind of mom where you put dinner out and they eat it or go hungry.  Enter in a foster kid who was grossly underweight and has a strong personality.  Even the best intentions go out the window! I have a picky eater. I mean REALLY picky eater.  I found a magical plate that …

Be sure to smell the flowers…

April 16, 2018May 26, 2020 / beachchairtracy/ 18 Comments

This is a joyful reminder to smell the flowers. This picture was taken of our Little Girl when she was in PreK. This is how she lives life. She holds nothing back. So in these crazy, full-throttle days…take time to smell the flowers!

Things not to say…

April 13, 2018May 16, 2020 / beachchairtracy/ 26 Comments

Ok, the title should really be “Things not to Say to an Adoptive Mom.” After a 3 1/2 year journey my husband and I were able to adopt our little girl out of the foster care system. These are some actual questions I have fielded. 1. You are so lucky you did not have to go through labor. Ok, let …

pre-TWEEN

April 7, 2018May 26, 2020 / beachchairtracy/ 23 Comments

According to the Urban Dictionary a tween is a girl ages about 9-14…too old for toys, but too young for boys. Very easy to market to, will usually follow any fashion trend set for them, will most likely go through the phase of ‘finding themselves’ as they ‘grow up’. 1. Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen’s main fanbase are all tweens. 2. tween 1: …

Solo child…

April 4, 2018April 11, 2018 / beachchairtracy/ 6 Comments

I overheard a conversation with Little Girl and her friend. Her friend told her she was an only child.  Little Girl was adamant that she was not.   They went back and forth and then I set the record straight.  She is not an only child.  She has biological siblings.  We adopted Little Girl a few weeks ago and she has lived with …

Egg Hunt at Kimball Jenkins Estate

April 2, 2018April 11, 2018 / beachchairtracy/ 19 Comments

  This year is the first year we did an Easter egg hunt. I usually shy away from these sort of things as they bring out the “selfish” in people. However, I heard of a hunt at the Kimball Jenkins Estate. I decided it would be fun to give it a try. The Kimball Jenkins Estate is a lovely piece …
