I’m sorry I haven’t posted in a few days, but like you I’ve been immersed in holiday goodness: baking, socializing, wrapping and enjoying the sights and sounds of this special time of year. I’ve fallen so behind on reading my favorite blogs and e-mails, that I may just delete and start fresh January 1. That’s…
12 days until Christmas and like you, my holiday ‘To Do’ list is out of control! Today was a very productive day…. I addressed, stamped and mailed 100 holiday cards, visited 6 stores, including Starbucks for a much needed extra dose of liquid energy, baked 7 dozen cookies (sugar, chocolate chip oatmeal and peanut butter)…
Lucas is 2 1/2 years old today and they were right. I was warned. Everyone that said it goes by fast. By it, of course, I mean childhood…. mine, yours and especially our children’s. One minute it was just Todd and I and the next we became a family by bringing home our newborn son….
It’s inevitable. Bound to happen, as it does to all of us. For some, it happens sooner rather than later. Much later. I was in the second grade. His name was (and is, we are now Facebook friends) Scott Brewer. Lucas has been in preschool since August and has adjusted very well. He attends three…
We only have one bathtub in our house and it’s in the master bathroom. After Lucas has a bath, his favorite thing to do is rush out of the bathroom completely naked and dripping wet and jump and “wrestle in bed”, as he calls it with his dad. The roughhousing turns into a game of…

In the beginning, it was diapers, sleepless nights, onesies, bottles and burp cloths, but in just a few short months, Lucas started crawling and then soon after that, walking and is now talking and communicating with me like I never thought he would and I realize that the fun has only just begun. I am…
I wrote this piece last year when I had all of three followers and I immediately thought of it when I read this week’s Red Writing Hood’s writing prompt: Write a piece about finding a forgotten item of clothing in the back of a drawer or closet. Let us know how the item was found,…

Unbelievably, Lucas is 20 months old today! He is the light of my life and his personality just gets better and brighter each and every day. Lucas’ retention blows my mind daily and his growing vocabulary is impressive to everyone he meets. We ran into my friend, Kat at the grocery store the other evening…
