Scissors: 1, Amy: 0

Last week, Love Bug showed high interest in cutting paper. So, being the fantastic mother I am, I helped her pick out her very own pair of children’s sized scissors. Not only would they fit her hand better than the large scissors I use but the end is blunted so if running with scissors ever… Read More

Homemade Valentines

When I was little, we always made our own Valentines. I can’t remember any of them specifically (save one) but I remember working on them, writing the names of classmates and signing my own name. (The only Valentine I remember in detail was kind of a self-portrait; a cut out head with hair and facial features… Read More

New Hairdo

Love Bug finally allowed me to try a pony tail in her hair. She even wore it for an hour and she seemed to like it. But then she asked me to remove it. She looks so different when it’s all pulled back! Who knew her hair was so long! (I did try to get a… Read More

Happenings & Plans

Just sharing some pictures of recent happenings at our house. First let me introduce my companion for the last few days. And yes, she wears it when we leave home. I don’t know what the outfit is supposed to be but Love Bug really likes it at this time. I purchased some really cool materials… Read More

Sledding Fun

Yesterday, before the horrendous cold front settled in, we had the chance to go sledding with some good friends. The mid-20s are much more cozy than 8 degrees or -8 degrees, which is what we are headed for. Anyway, it was Love Bug’s first ‘real’ sledding experience and it did not start out well. MJ took her… Read More

16 🥳 My baby. ❤️ Life is going to be different fro 16 🥳 My baby. ❤️ Life is going to be different from now on. It’s a good different but things won’t ever be like they were. What I don’t think is covered well enough in birthing/ parenting classes is this “growing up and away” business. The marvelous new being we brought home all too quickly rightly becomes her own person. And it’s fantastic. The personality, the perspective, the humor, the growth. It’s such an honor to watch her life unfold day by day. But I can’t deny that part of me misses the baby that fit in my arms and I do feel grief for the milestones yet to come. Part of me wants to freeze time to prevent any more changes but every change is a new bright unfolding. So here I’ll stay. Watching, marveling and loving this beautiful creature. ❤️
Officially a teen. 🎉 Where does the time go. Seems Officially a teen. 🎉 Where does the time go. Seems like just yesterday that my sweet baby boy arrived, all squishy and snuggly. Now we stand nearly eye to eye and unfortunately, I don’t think I’m going to get any taller. I’m so proud of the person he is and I’m excited for all that is to come. So thankful to be his mom. Love him so. ❤️
