“Mama! Mama! MESS! Mess Mama!” You were frantic, pointing down at the filthy floor and examining your now soiled sock. You, my sweet boy, are so much like me. I keep seeing this. You like the feeling of multiple blankets on top of you when you go to sleep and you prefer them to be…

Prioritizing
In what I am sure is going to be an overarching theme during this entire year, our household was struck with illness once again this past weekend. I keep thinking we’ve tried every sickness that could possibly be spread at daycare, and then… …and then Cameron starts pussing from the eyes. So, on Monday (and…
New Mommy
It is official. I am a new Mommy. I didn’t really want to become a new Mommy, but it was a change that had to be made. I am now a Working Mom. My first day back at work went well. Cameron and Mommy both got through the day with minimal tears. I kept my…

**Disclaimer: I really wrestled with whether I should post this today. Today Cameron is four months old. This really is meant to be a letter to my son about the last month, not just a gimmick for a blog. And so, for the first time, I have written about what is going on that has…
You Make Me Happy When Skies Are Grey
Every once in a while, the full reality of life hits you and you realize that life isn’t always gummy baby smiles and warm snuggles and millions of kisses. Sometimes life is full of aching hearts and extreme loneliness and crocodile tears. And on days like today, when all I want to do is crumple…
