A Letter To My Son On His 9th Birthday

December 16, 2016 by Alison Tedford Leave a Comment

Dear Liam, I can scarcely believe you are turning 9. It seems like just yesterday I held you in the hospital bed maternity ward, thinking you looked kind of like a turtle, wondering what I had got myself into and hoping not to screw everything up. The good news is, you seem fine so I probably … [Read more...]

Surviving My Son’s Birthday Celebrations After Divorce

March 4, 2016 by Erin Silver Leave a Comment

We recently celebrated my son's seventh birthday. I usually get really emotional around their birthdays. I always have. I get overwhelmed at how much they've accomplished, how big they've grown, how wonderful they are turning out to be. But this year, there was no time for tears. When my ex came … [Read more...]

The Last Party

November 18, 2013 by Christine 3 Comments

Cuyler turned eleven last Wednesday. Yesterday he celebrated his birthday with friends. It took me a while to figure out where to host it; I needed somewhere age appropriate for the friends he was inviting at the same time be able to hold Cuyler's interest. Cuyler's first suggestion was to invite … [Read more...]

Eleven

November 13, 2013 by Christine 7 Comments

Today my baby boy turns eleven. Eleven years ago today we met the boy who would forever change Sean and I, and teach us things about ourselves and the world that we otherwise would never have known. There was something a little bit magic about this kid from very early on... His smile is … [Read more...]

Birthday Boy (Man)

September 30, 2013 by Jason 7 Comments

Birthdays have never really been a big deal to me, nor were they growing up in my household. The only child birthday party I actually remember was my father taking eight friends and I to see the movie Hooper with Burt Reynolds for my 11th birthday. About halfway through this raucous comedy, an ample … [Read more...]

Kindergarten Baby

September 11, 2013 by Amanda 2 Comments

This baby, the one who stretched my body more than the others, and who has also stretched the limits of my patience and broadened the limits of my love, she went to kindergarten today. She was so excited, so ready. And I was too. But then I looked back at this photo, remembering the blur of … [Read more...]

My Third’s Third

August 31, 2013 by Amanda 1 Comment

Brinley turned three today. I couldn't help but think back to her fast and furious entrance into this world at 3 am, and how she was the world's cutest baby and then became a bit of a terror when she turned two and is still so stinkin' cute but such a little brat sometimes. Love that little … [Read more...]

Turning 11

August 20, 2013 by Jason 1 Comment

Eleven years old is a weird age. You are stuck in the middle of being too old and too young. The glow of innocence fades a bit and the queered eyebrows of realization that the world is not all sunshine and lollipops kicks in. Hudson turns 11 today. He is 5 foot 6 and about 120lbs, so basically a … [Read more...]

It’s Good to be the King

July 30, 2013 by Jason 3 Comments

Most parents would agree that each of their kids are different.  Birth order and how it can influence the rest of our lives is well documented in a number of parenting books, none of which have I read. All I know is that my second is very different from my first and on this day of celebrating his … [Read more...]
