E Turns Four Naked And High On Sugar (Updated: Birth Story Link Fixed)

August 29, 2010

My son turned four yesterday. My beautiful boy who made me a mom. And tired and crazy and unbelievably content with my life. He spent his birthday naked playing with his new Aquaplay AquaLand (bought because I clearly love my son more than my sanity) and watching movies while we ate donuts and salami and [...]

Happy Birthday Scott

August 1, 2010
Late Enough gift for Dada

Yesterday was my wonderful husband’s 32nd birthday. And my gift to him? Besides this: And this: I was unplugged. From 5:30 p.m. Friday until 7 a.m. Sunday. Except there was one flaw in my plan of wifely AWESOMENESS. On Friday night, Scott was post-call. And asleep by 9 p.m.. I haven’t gone to bed at [...]

We Accept Money And Attention In Exchange For A Happy Fourth Of July.

July 4, 2010

Happy Independence Day to my American friends! Happy Sunday to everyone else! Unless it’s Monday. Or Saturday. I made a Fourth of July vlog with E. Inadvertently proving that when Late Enough and Captain Attention made little people, we made little Not Enough Attentions. PS. Afterwards E kept asking to watch the video again to [...]

It’s Father’s Day, Which Is Kind Of Annoying

June 20, 2010

As we embark on Father’s Day, I’ve decided that there should be two Mother’s Days instead. Me: What would you like to do for Father’s Day? Scott: Um.. Me: I figured a massage at some point. But not Father’s Day weekend since you’re working. But what about food? Are you craving anything? And how do [...]

Respect Memorial Day And Keep Your American Flag Hot Pants In Your Closet

May 31, 2010

It’s Memorial Day. And just like being Christian and liberal or a philosophy major and an MD, I’m anti-war and pro-military. What I mean is that while I don’t support most wars and have a very narrow view of the just war theory (which I learned about when I read this book), I am fiercely [...]

You Might Celebrate Mother’s Day But I Celebrate Treat-Mama-Like-A-Baby Day

May 8, 2010

Tomorrow is Mother’s Day. If you have a mom in your life, you now have one day advanced notice to DO SOMETHING SPECIAL. And if you are seriously just realizing that Sunday is Mother’s Day, my guess is that’s one day sooner than last year. I really struggle with wanting and not wanting to be [...]

Going Green: Earth Day Tips for Lazy People

April 22, 2010

Let’s deal with one thing right off the bat. I DON’T CARE IF YOU BELIEVE IN GLOBAL WARMING. I don’t recycle out of fear. I don’t compost. (I just don’t yet.) I don’t buy the weird swirly lights because I think that it’ll stop a volcanos in Iceland. I do it because I live ON [...]

My Baby Girl Turns One Today

IMG_0239

My little girl was born exactly one year ago today. And although I did not feel up for writing out N’s birth story, I did put together pictures of her from April 2009 through April 2010. And I can’t believe how fast it went (except for month six. Also known as the slowest four weeks [...]

God’s Grace On Easter And Always

April 4, 2010
E with Easter Egg Tree

I recently saw a small debate on Facebook about grace. The essence: What is God’s grace? What does grace mean? On Easter, God’s grace seems so very big.  ‘For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.’ [...]
