A Mushy, Warm and Fuzzy, Feel Good Post

February 9, 2009 by Jen

Today is a good day. A really, really good day. Despite the fact that I slept a total of 3 hours last night waiting, I am on a high. A baby will do that to you. That's right, a baby. You know, their smell, soft skin, round backs. Yum. And I get to snuggle one soon because I am an Aunt again. My … [Read more...]

This Is What I See

December 22, 2008 by Jen

This Holiday Season is full of emotion. I can't seem to express all of this in words so I decided to try capturing it with my camera. This is pre-Christmas 2008 through my eyes: Gramma's knitting class. What a patient woman! So much excitement means sleepy, sleepy "girls". Sunrise … [Read more...]

I get by with a little help from my friends.

September 19, 2008 by Jen

Thank you. Thank you each and every one of you who commented, called, or emailed after I posted about the death of my dear old pal. I felt so much better knowing that others had gone through this and I wasn't really evil despite my eldest child's claims. We are reminded of her often when we see a … [Read more...]

Goodbye, Old Friend or Being a Grown-up Sucks

September 16, 2008 by Jen

Today we said goodbye to Bear. I won't go into the details but, suffice it to say, it was not easy. She had been with us for years and was a fixture in our family. We broke the news to the kids last night and, in a flurry of tears and heartbreak, we said our goodbyes.  We took pictures and my … [Read more...]

Today I Break Free

September 8, 2008 by Jen

Today I'm tired of fighting battles that don't exist and defending against enemies disguised as friends. Today I want to curl up under a rock where no one can find me and take a break for a while. Today I want to hug my children and reassure them that the world is not always this upside down. … [Read more...]

Farewell to Summer

September 1, 2008 by Jen

Is it me or does school seem to be starting extra early this year? I know, September 1st is a Monday so the long-weekend is early but still. I think because we had such rainy weather here in July and the last two weeks have been gorgeous (mid twenties and sunny) that I kinda feel like summer should … [Read more...]
