And Your Handle Is...

So when you fly an airplane, most pilots/aircraft personnel have a handle. We all remember the name "Goose" from Top Gun and those like it. Well, a handle tends to be a nickname that is given and used over the airwaves, and in the work place.

I was informed last night, that my darling husband now has a handle... one that will stick with him for a while, as it will be embroidered on his flight suit... "Doogie". As in Doogie Howser, MD.

I remember watching it and enjoying the show... I asked Ken why... I thought it was because of his youthful look to him compared with how smart he is, but he told me that it is because he can fix anything on a computer... sort of how Doogie summed up his day on his HUGE computer at the end of each episode.

Either way, it's kind of fun for him to be "accepted" into the Naval community with this name. Not everyone has a handle, so he is of the elite, I suppose. Either way, I'm proud of him, and can't wait to see his name tags :)

Merry New Year!!

I know I have been very delinquent about posting this past month, and to my faithful readers, I do apologize. But I do hope to post a little more in the following weeks. We had a very Merry Christmas with a long awaited trip to MI. And it was so successful that Finnegan has been asking to return. :) We left on Christmas day and returned on New Years Eve, with enough time to tuck our babes into bed, and pour a glass of champagne and turn on Ryan Seacrest.

The New Year has been rolling along in our home. I'm enjoying a new blog that I found and I'd love to share it with you, Stay at Home Moms. I know I continue to struggle with my journey and role from time to time. And I continue to ask God to give me a pure joy for my job, rooted in confidence sent ONLY from his Word and the Holy Spirit. So this Blog is a new encouragement for me... reminding me that I'm not alone in my quest for joy!! http://joyfulmothering.net/
