June 2011 Wallpaper – John MacArthur

Kristina — Wed, 01 Jun 2011 13:59:16 +0000

Tim Challies started doing a desktop wallpaper round up in February – I joined in again this month with this wallpaper featuring a fantastic quote from John MacArthur. I skipped the calendar this month, so theoretically you could use this year round.

Piano Recital

A friend of mine asked me to make her something fun for the piano recital she was hosting, she wanted something playful, colorful, but not girly. Obviously the boys weren’t going to want to save it for their memory books if it was covered in pink flowers and unicorns.

I found a cute clip art file – yea, I know, clip art – and hacked the heck out of it.

The most challenging part of it was to find a font that she liked – I think I overwhelmed her with options actually. What she ended up settling on was a font called Chocolate Box.

Derek & Sammy

Kristina — Tue, 19 Apr 2011 18:47:17 +0000

I’m going to get a bit personal on this post, but it’s for a very important reason so bear with me. I’ve got two small children and until February 17th this year I had four nephews who were all younger than my kids. Now I only have three nephews. I only have three nephews because Derek was murdered. He wasn’t even two years old yet. There is a lot surrounding the circumstances of his death that, frankly, doesn’t add up.

Sammy, Derek’s younger brother, was also hurt – though we still don’t have a straight story on that either. The wonderful thing is that Sammy is fine. His broken leg healed, and he’s home with his father – where he ought to stay. This brings us to the purpose of this post – Derek & Sammy is a website that we as a family set up in order to have a place to share Derek & Sammy’s story.

There are also buttons, shirts, bumper stickers and other gifts available for purchase via Zazzle and CafePress.

It is our hope that these things will serve as catalysts for dialog about the importance of having safe support system surrounding families with small children, responsibly choosing who is involved in children’s lives, and more than that will hopefully serve as an aid to helping keep Sammy safe from future injury or dangerous situations.

Please visit the website and/or “like” Derek & Sammy on Facebook. Help spread the word so that we can keep tragedies like this from happening to other families.
