Dear Cameron: A Love Letter to My Six Month Old
**Cameron turned six months old yesterday.** Half a year. That’s how long you’ve been an outside baby, Mr. Pants. That’s how long you’ve been in our world. That’s how long I’ve been able to hold you in my arms. Half of a glorious year. The other night, you and I were snuggling in bed, and…
Speaking of Wordless Wednesdays
Just a note to say that I might be blogging a little less than usual. I seem to have some sort of pain in my hands and wrists (what I am guessing might be carpel tunnel?) and so I am going to try to avoid the computer as much as possible (this will be a…

Too Many Choices: Convertible Car Seats
I am indecisive. I may say that I like to have options to choose from, but in reality, I do not do well with many choices. Ask my husband. He will tell you how annoying it is to sit with me at a restaurant while I have to read the menu over word for word…
Mommyhood Survival Guide: Weddings (Complete with Mommy Pictures)
Can I tell you a secret? I was totally dreading my sister’s wedding. It wasn’t because I disliked her fiancé-now-husband. No, I am so thrilled to call him my brother-in-law! It wasn’t because she was a terrible Bridezilla either. No, I was dreading her wedding because I had no idea how to take care of a…

Walk Together
Well, wedding week is officially over. It finished with a bang in the best ways. Todays wedding was beautiful and joyful and emotional. I am now excited to announce that I have a new brother, and I could not be more pleased about it. I didn’t mean to leave the blog high and dry for…
Something for Sunday: Made for Glory
*Like other semi-regular weekly posts, I am going to try to write a faith-related post on Sundays. I recognize and understand that not everyone who might read this has the same faith beliefs that I do. Please read, if you want, because this is part of who I am, part of the mother that I…
Mommy’s Happy Boy
Earlier this week, there was a lot going on… a lot going on that I wasn’t happy about. Earlier this week, I was at the end of my rope. I wanted to blog about it. I almost needed to blog about it. But it isn’t good for me to write when I am in that…
