Grumpy Grateful Mommy

Time for the last segment of the 2011 review. Let's take a look at October, November and December.

I discussed the stages of inventive spelling in two parts. here and here

I also talked about the difference between quality gifts vs the quantity of gifts. Something that is even more meaningful this week after Christmas.

I also took you trick or treating down memory lane before Halloween.

I shared some thoughts about parenting and the choices I've made for my sons. It's hard to be a parent these days and protect children from the world around them. See my thoughts.

I talked about Pearl Harbor Day while reflecting on 9/11 too. How many days in infamy will we have in this country?

I reflected on the lack of unlimited outside time that children can have now a days compared to when I was a child.

I posted a new cookie recipe that was super yummy! Chocolate blossoms with candy cane kisses.
