I needed to go. But as I stood there for a few moments longer, I realized I didn’t really need to go. Or even want to at that point. It was the evening of Tuesday, October 19, 2010 and soon I would look at the calendar and it would be October 19, 2025 and he…
Dear Sleep, Why do you Elude Me?
I haven’t been feeling that well since we returned from our weekend jaunt and I think it may just be allergies (Ragweed can go to h.e.l.l.) but whatever it is is putting me in a foul mood. And when I’m in a foul mood AND not feeling well, I’d rather just sleep and by sleep…
Kinda
I kinda felt like I was in another world over the weekend. I also kinda felt like it was “back in the day” before Tim and I had our three beautiful children together. I kinda felt like I was in some sort of dream at times… We had a wonderful, fun, relaxing, rejuvenating time with…
A Dream Come True
I had a dream of her… Her hair was blonde and fine and softer than silk. Her eyes were crystal blue, like little oceans. Her lips were small and perfectly shaped. Her cheeks, round and full and oh so kissable. After the dream, I waited for her. I wasn’t sure if it was real. I…
To Wear or Not to Wear. There is NO Question.
I have been wearing my babies since the beginning of my mothering days. But I’m no expert. I just feel it is was a good way to keep my babies close and safe. Yes, I said SAFE. Because babywearing IS safe. I used to wear The B Man while I did dishes. Sometimes it was…
There she was. (A Birthday Post)
When I found out I was pregnant in January of 2009 it was a surprise. A really BIG surprise. Tim and I were actually a little shell-shocked for a few days. We would just look at each every few minutes like deer, caught in head lights. It’s not that I didn’t want another baby, I…
Life Lessons Learned Through Another Mother
So there’s this other Mom I know in the community that I run into quite a bit. For the sake of this post, let’s call her Julie (that is NOT her name and for the life of me I can’t remember it right now, so it could possibly be her name, but I’m about 98.356%…
Terrifying
I had a terrifying dream the other night. It was one of those where you find yourself halfway between the dream and real life and knowing it’s just a dream, but still, you are sort of stuck there. I woke up crying in my bed, the morning light barely starting to show through the blinds….
I’ll Take the Good and the Bad
Some days I have time with my children where I want to cry “UNCLE!!!” really loudly and put a sign out in the front yard that says FREE KID(S) (you know, depending on how many are bugging me at the time). Some days I have time with my children where I am overwhelmed at how…
M.I.A.
I spent quite a lot of time away from my family this weekend. No, I didn’t go anywhere besides some places here in town, but for most of Saturday and some time on Sunday, I was away from Tim and the kids. On Saturday I used my “spa day” gift certificate that Tim gave me…
