by beth on January 20, 2012

D-man is still in love with his Alphie robot.  He even wants to take him to bed and cud­dle. Like I have said before it’s bet­ter D-man learn to take orders from robots while he is still young given soon robots will be our overlords.

Greener Pastures

by beth on January 20, 2012

It is 6 degrees out. It feels colder. Much colder. I am try­ing to warm myself from the inside out. But as I freeze I can­not help but won­der: “When does sum­mer come again?”  Not soon enough, not soon enough.

Nis­san Motor Co. has come up with a prod­uct that is almost cool for words, a self-healing iPhone case {pic­tured above & below, from Nis­san}. As a recent iPhone & iPad con­vert I am highly intrigued. As some­one who may not be as gen­tle as I should with said items I am prob­a­bly more than intrigued but also an ideal can­di­date for such a product.

Check out more about this nifty case here in recent Wash­ing­ton Post arti­cle on it.

Very cool indeed!

The Works of Motherhood

by beth on January 18, 2012

As moth­ers we do so much, even in the lit­tle things.

That real­ity of just how much we do and the how no task is with­out impor­tance is one of the rea­sons I love this paint­ing of the Pol­ish Madonna and Christ child.

It also reminds me that while my life may not be per­fect I am help­ing to guide my chil­dren through life and per­form­ing works of mercy every­day as a mother.

When they are thirsty I give them drink. When they are hun­gry I give them food. When they are in need of com­fort or coun­sel I hold, guide and love them. Even in the midst of the day to day aspects of life between the edu­cat­ing and the laun­dry, the run­ning around and the quiet moments, that holi­ness is being cul­ti­vated, faith is mul­ti­plied and love is never divided.
