About My Mom… A Belated Mother’s Day Post…
I’m lucky to have a mother. And I’m blessed that she was/is a good mother. I’ve taken that for granted before. And I regret that. Not once in my life have I doubted my mother’s love. Not once.

LOVE (a cute little reminder on Valentine’s Day)

I take Elias & Adeline to day-school on most mornings. I love short car rides with Elias.

A PARENTING POST: Going Through the Wonderful Passionate Curious Happy Lovable Twos!
A couple weeks ago I wrote about Elias’s journey through the “Terrible Twos.” Well, he’s still two. And he’s still, on occasion–though I hate saying this word as it relates to my son–terrible. But it’s true. Twice, I’ve thought about sending him to live amongst a herd of pigs. But I love him too much [...]
