James & Owen’s 1st Day of Preschool

September 3, 2013 – 11:42 pm

I have a lot I want to write right now but it’s too much. I can’t put my thoughts together. Sometimes, three-year periods bear little change. Others start with you in the NICU with two little people who—combined—weigh less than your cat and end with you watching them walk down your front walk wearing backpacks. […]

Sophie’s First Day of Kindergarten

August 20, 2013 – 9:56 am

She said she hardly slept but I know that’s not true. I know that, because I hardly slept and I checked on her several times throughout the night, catching her fast asleep in her bed and later, in the early hours of the morning, in our bed. When she did wake she wanted to go. […]

A Walk in the Woods

July 25, 2013 – 3:14 pm

This morning was gorgeous. We left the windows open overnight and as such, our house was filled with outdoor morning sweetness—chirping birds and cool breezes. The children’s attitudes, however, were less than gorgeous. There was whining and crying, and fit-throwing when Andy left for work. In my mind, I couldn’t understand how they could be […]

Fort “Thomas”

April 12, 2013 – 9:53 pm

James had a meltdown in the van tonight. Why? I told him we live in the city of Fort Thomas. “NO, Mommy! Thomas is a SHOW! It’s NOT a city!” When I tried to tell him otherwise, he just screamed louder. This lasted for 20 minutes. (And he still doesn’t believe me.) “Parenthood remains the […]

Woodfill’s Big Top Festival (Year Three)

November 5, 2012 – 10:12 pm

I love everything about this festival. I love how kid-centered it is. I love how inexpensive it is (although as the kids get older, we’re discovering it becomes more and more costly). I love how everything is run by volunteers. I love how all the money earned benefits the school. I love how excited my […]
