Someone is NOT happy with me
Better late than never… I say that because her b-day was last month. Ahem. And this photo was from the week of her party. I was “helping” my Little Pumpkin get the invitations ready for her 8th birthday party. But I got a bit ahead of her. This is what I get for trying to [...]
We get to celebrate another birthday or how nearly a decade has passed
Today is my little Pumpkin’s 7th birthday. Yep, SEVEN years old. I don’t know why I’m constantly surprised by the fact that years are passing by so quickly. I say this same S#!T all the time. And yet, I’m surprised again. I think it’s all the looking back that I do at times like these. [...]
Stuff I didn’t want to admit, even to myself.
I’ll tell you one thing I NEVER thought I’d be dealing with as I raised my own children, dealing with the sensation or visualization or emotionalization ~is that even a word? it is now!~ of watching one’s own child-hood very nearly replayed, in front of your bloomin eyes, by one’s own child.

My baby; isn’t one anymore
11 years ago today, and just like now it was a Wednesday, I went to the hospital to deliver my baby girl. We were so excited to finally meet her. Little did I know that it would take the entire day and a S#!T ton of pain before she’d join us. Oh, the naïvety of [...]
Growing up fast
I feel as if I am constantly trying to slow down my Honey bunny. What do I mean? She’s growing up, getting bigger, becoming a young lady, and I’m doing just about everything in my power to make sure she doesn’t grow up too fast. Is it wrong of me? Maybe. Do I think it’s [...]
What? Wait?! What did you say?
So Christmas was last week, as I’m sure you all recall. Santa brought us a wii, wii fit & rock band ~all in all a great score of gifts as far as I’m concerned. There’s another story in there but I don’t have time to go into it all right now. Perhaps at another time. [...]
