It’s almost Mother’s Day, and I hope that you’ve sorted it all out weeks ago and don’t need any suggestions. On the off chance that you haven’t planned ahead and are now starting to wonder what the heck you’re going to get Mom to show her how important she is in your life, I’m here to help.

TVP – Meet the Crew – Rebecca Frech

Last updated on: May 1, 2015 at 4:25 pm By Rebecca Frech

With our new radio show The Visitation Project set to launch on May 3rd, I thought it might be fun for everyone to get a chance to meet the crew behind this exciting venture. There are four of us if we include our sound guru Keith, and we can never forget Keith, so I’ll be introducing (or re-introducing) all of us leading up to our launch date. If you have any questions I haven’t asked, please add them in the... Read more

Fluffy Kitty Slippers and The Papal Nuncio

Last updated on: May 5, 2015 at 9:11 am By Rebecca Frech

This past weekend, Ella and I went to the WCMX World Championships which were being held in South Dallas. She had done pretty well on Saturday, and we were getting ready to watch the pro skaters when we took advantage of a break in the schedule to slip off to Sunday morning Mass at a nearby church. We didn’t have time or a place to change, so we went in the jeans and t-shirts we had worn to the competition.... Read more

Jesus Wears Panties

Last updated on: March 30, 2016 at 11:25 am By Rebecca Frech

My youngest has been completely obsessed with underpants ever since the Great Potty Training of 2015. It reached a new height last week when, during an indoor game of rainy day hide-and-seek, she hid under my maxi skirt as I stood at the stove cooking dinner. (An ingenious move in my opinion.) What should have been a brilliant hiding place didn’t conceal her for long because she fell on the ground roaring with laughter as she pointed and me and... Read more

The Oklahoma City Bombing – 20 Years Later

Last updated on: April 19, 2015 at 4:00 pm By Rebecca Frech

20 years ago this morning I stood behind the front desk at the Waterford Hotel in Oklahoma City checking out guests and eagerly planning my wedding to the most amazing guy. I was giddy with the flush of new love and youthful innocence. I was wiggling my sparkling left hand in front of my grinning co-worker when the entire building shuddered with the aftershocks of an explosion. Every door in the entire hotel flew open and then slammed shut as the shock... Read more

When We Were Poor

Last updated on: April 16, 2015 at 4:47 pm By Rebecca Frech

There was a time in our lives when my husband and I were poor. There were years when we dreamed about actually having a comma in his monthly paycheck. If only we could get to the point where we had a comma, everything would get easier. We eventually got to that comma, and thought if only the number in front of it were a 2, we wouldn’t have to worry about money at all. Now that we are 40 and 42, my... Read more

Maybe we should all forget What Alice Forgot

Last updated on: April 15, 2015 at 9:47 pm By Rebecca Frech

Last night, I reread the book What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty. A friend of mine casually mentioned it months ago, and I added it to my “I should maybe read this if I have the time” list. I should have put it on the “Carve out a weekend and be ready to not move until you’re done” must read list. Alice is a deceptively simple read. It’s not “great literature,” and yet it’s story line had me rethinking... Read more

It’s Always The Quiet Ones

Last updated on: April 14, 2015 at 6:42 pm By Rebecca Frech

My other children are the ones that other people notice – their achievements, brains, and personalities make them all difficult to ignore. But our L is often overlooked. Most of his life, that’s on purpose. He loves being able to slip into a roomful of people and be able to sit unnoticed while be observes everyone else. He’s a world championship people-watcher and madcap wild inventor, and the most impressive person that the world never notices. If ever there... Read more
