Pantry Moments
Pin itI sit inside – cramming down a chocolate chip cookie after dinner. It is second-rate, at best, but I eat it anyway. I eat it as an act of comfort, and act of escape… an act of sanity. My knees touch as my feet are placed wide apart. I feel vunerable… like a knobby [...]
Like Mother, Like Daughter… So. Much.
Pin itI should not be surprised. In fact, I am a little proud. Though I would never let Olivia know. In the car today Olivia mentioned that her teacher will sometimes ask her to “…never do that again.” I know my daughter is very social, so I am not surprised that her teacher might request [...]

My Kind of People
Pin it This picture was taken at my 32nd birthday party… many, many moons ago. This picture makes me happy. Many of my dear friends disco’d and karaoke’d the night away… all to celebrate Me and the wonder of my birth… I was pregnant with Lucy, and feelin’ really ugly. But all the love [...]

Pin itI read this post about my friend who… well… She was with her young kids, at a race track… with dirt… young kids… a race track… it was hot… Other mother’s children appeared to be behaving… THOSE mothers appeared to be enjoying their time at the race track with heat and dirt and children… [...]
