    The Little Red Hen
    Hooray for a good work ethic! The little red hen asks but receives no help in her efforts to put bread on the table. Yet all who wouldn't help would like to eat. In a refreshingly old-fashioned triumph of moral consequences, they don't get to!
  • Noisy Nora
    Noisy Nora
    Poor Nora! The loveable mousette experiences all the pangs of the child-in-the- middle, caught between the demands of baby brother and bossiness of big sister. Catchy meter, playful illustrations make for a wonderfully satisfying mouse's tale. Baby-Preschool

Since they lost all their furniture in a fire, they've been saving mother’s tips in a jar – so they can buy a big comfortable chair for their whole family to enjoy – daughter, mother and grandmother.

BenAnna wedding pictures - the real thing!

benanna.jpg Oh my goodness!!! Anna's sister Jorie just sent me the link to the blog of the photographer who did BenAnna's wedding last Friday.

These pictures are incredible!

I know some of you read MommyLife for information, but for those involved with me and my family, please go to Kristen Gardner's blog right now to see some gorgeous pictures of two very-in-love people, Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Michael Curtis!

Oh, what a happy day!

And I can't think of a better recommendation for a photographer than these pictures. Except to also say, she was the most unobtrusive and respectful photographer I've ever met. Kristen's website is

Those are really wonderful. You can so clearly tell how much Ben and Anna love each other. I also really liked the photo of the groomsmen. You must be so proud!

Barbara - These are truly lovely. I am so glad that you had such a great experience with this photographer - ours was truly awful. He acted as if the entire wedding were planned for his benefit. I was surprised he didn't stop us in the middle of the ceremony to get "his shot" just right! These are pictures Ben and Anna will cherish as will their children and grandchildren and great grandchildren:)

Terrific pix. I LOVED the flowers. I'm putting that idea into the hopper for future use.

You have such a beautiful family, and it is so evident where your priorities lie. You are setting such a godly example for those of us who still have many years to go before our children marry.

Those pictures are truly amazing.
Very gifted photographer and a beautiful couple.

I love the one when she's standing behind him. And he has such a clean and gentle smile.

Congratulations to the happy couple and best wishes as they begin their new life together.
