One Year Ago

Posted on August 14, 2013 Written by Tonya

I love the old adage, "the more things change, the more they stay the same" because in life there are many, many things that should never change. For example and just to name a few: my favorite bagel shop should never under any circumstances stop … [Continue reading]

Our Wednesdays

Posted on August 14, 2013 Written by Tonya

Wednesdays are our days. Big floppy hats, sunscreen and sand between our toes. No school. Watching the sun set, s'mores around a bonfire and patiently waiting for fireworks to light up the night sky. No extra curricular … [Continue reading]

The Strongest 23 Year Old I Know

Posted on August 13, 2013 Written by Tonya

I was 35 and it felt as though my entire world had been turned completely upside down. Never in a million years did I expect to lose my parents before they retired, moved back to the states, or met my children and yet, I did. Both of them at the … [Continue reading]

My First Crush

Posted on August 7, 2013 Written by Tonya

Enjoy The Silence

Posted on August 7, 2013 Written by Tonya

Silence. It is such a rare luxury, particularly with a four year old in tow. A four year old whom I beg at least once a day for two minutes of silence. Sometimes I need to be in a place where all noise is gone, the noise of everyday life. … [Continue reading]

Why I Hate Clothes Shopping

Posted on August 6, 2013 Written by Tonya

We all have that friend that looks like she just walked off the pages of the latest magazine... no matter what the event, she is impeccably put together head to toe, wearing the latest styles, "in" colors and jewelry to match. As much as you want to … [Continue reading]

Just Thinking Out Loud…

Posted on August 5, 2013 Written by Tonya

Okay, so bear with me, this is a random post in order for me to purge... I have a lot on my mind these days. Stupid, ridiculous, trivial crap and big, life changing, important stuff too. I think it's imperative to get it all out sometimes, so here … [Continue reading]

10 Things I Love About My Son

And Still…

Posted on July 30, 2013 Written by Tonya

Our day started much too early. That's no excuse. Play with me. I was short. I was preoccupied. With what? My "To Do" list for the day? The thoughts in my head? The laundry? It could all wait. Facebook status updates? Who really cares? … [Continue reading]
