Trying to Look Like a Model

A long time ago in blog years, a readers commented on wanting to be a fly on my wall, and it was not a euphemism. So, of course, I invited everyone home with me. And now we’re going home again because I have all these tidbits that are too short for anything else except flies. [...]

My husband: Are you ready for a flood of emotions? Me: Um, yes? My husband: I took down the crib. … but, but, but, this is the crib we chose, the safest (hardest) mattress, butterflies and dragonflies, lime green and peach, sky blue and bubblegum pink, hand-painted trees and cherry blossoms, tiny hands clutching fingers, [...]

Mr and Mrs photo

Eight years ago today, I was getting my hair done and trying to standing still while my bridesmaids buttoned up my wedding dress and zipped up my white leather go-go boots. I did not know, when I walked down the aisle, the person I could be. I did not understand that my heart would have [...]
