Reasons to run…

May 18, 2018February 10, 2020 / beachchairtracy/ 22 Comments

Reasons to run… Ok…let’s be honest here. We all know those people who love to run. They own more sneakers than pants. I get it. It is good for you. It is a great way to let off steam. I am more of a water person. I look like I won’t move fast on land but get me in the …

Adoption on Mothers Day…

May 14, 2018May 26, 2020 / beachchairtracy/ 13 Comments

My husband and I adopted our daughter out of Foster Care.  She lived with us for years and knew us prior so there was no great trauma having her move in with us.  Her adoption was final this past February.  This is my first Mothers Day as a legal mother.  I have been her mom for years but this year …

I love Jesus but I drive like a jerk…

April 25, 2018April 8, 2022 / 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 …

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!

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 …

Syrup boil off…

March 18, 2018May 28, 2018 / beachchairtracy/ 20 Comments

I am blessed to have a group of friends whom I have known for over 20 years.  We call ourselves the Crew.  We are scattered throughout New England but make it a point to connect a few times a year.  One of these times is the annual boil off.  It is hosted by A and H.  They do all the …
