Birth Story | My World Edenwild
https://edenwild.wordpress.com/birth-story
My life, my loves, my thoughts. My Story of Birthing My Child. Born July 2008, written May 2011). I thought she was crazy when I learned what that was. Even then, I knew I wanted a natural birth. Dangerous for women who did not need them. That for the average woman, giving birth at home is just as safe as giving birth in a hospital–why not have the experience in the privacy and comfort of home? Ready to be born at 39 weeks–how was I to know mine was? Better than expected that she would let me go full-ter...

Slow Days, Flying Time | My World Edenwild
https://edenwild.wordpress.com/2015/01/22/slow-days-flying-time
My life, my loves, my thoughts. Slow Days, Flying Time. January 22, 2015. Michael (green jacket) at outdoor school homeschool co-op. Since Isla was born, I’ve tried to keep life simple. Being mama to two is enough! My days are so full, despite simplicity. I catch my breath by popping on Facebook or playing quick games on my phone because I rarely have a long enough patch of time to. Read, or to. I miss reading, but I. Isla It’s incredible how much faster it goes the second time around. Notify me of new p...

My life, my loves, my thoughts. Public School to Online School. February 10, 2014. First day of kindergarten, September 2013. Michael is good at paying attention and understands things quickly, so he’d probably glide through a typical school okay. But gliding isn’t what I want him to do. I want him to be adequately challenged in each area of learning. We looked at several options for him: A Montessori charter school, a Gardner charter school (which teaches violin! Especially. He’ll have the opp...I almos...

Isla | My World Edenwild
https://edenwild.wordpress.com/2014/06/06/isla
My life, my loves, my thoughts. June 6, 2014. Okay, so I did have my baby. Three months ago to be exact. I was trying to write the birth story first, but it’s just too long to write. I need to just start writing about my little sweet one before I forget things already. I didn’t think my body could handle more than one more pregnancy, and so I imagined that I might not even give birth to this girl…maybe she would be adopted. I just didn’t know. But I knew she would come eventually. I felt uneasy about her...

Gentle Love | My World Edenwild
https://edenwild.wordpress.com/gentle-love
My life, my loves, my thoughts. I don’t believe in “tough love.”. We are all different. Every person is unique, and if they so choose to have children, they will become unique parents and have unique children. So of course we can’t all parent the same way. Does that mean there is no ideal way of parenting? Loving, respectful, and gentle. You don’t have to be Christian to take this pledge. You only have to promise to yourself to.

Isla’s birth story: part 1: the backstory | My World Edenwild
https://edenwild.wordpress.com/2014/09/14/islas-birth-story-part-1-the-backstory
My life, my loves, my thoughts. Isla’s birth story: part 1: the backstory. September 14, 2014. At my 39 week appointment, and I was hooked up to the fetal stress test machine. Apparently I was having contractions (which I couldn’t feel) and the baby’s heart rate had a dip during one. It was concluded that I go straight to labor and delivery to be induced. This was the beginning of a very traumatic experience for me. The full story can be read here. Not the birthing I had dreamed of. From → My Pregna...

One Year: Mama’s Gratitudes | My World Edenwild
https://edenwild.wordpress.com/2015/03/05/one-year-mamas-gratitudes
My life, my loves, my thoughts. One Year: Mama’s Gratitudes. March 5, 2015. I cannot believe you are one year old already. This time a year ago, I was in labor with you. It was an amazing experience. The moment you were born was quite literally the happiest moment of my life. I was consumed with gratitude that night, for you were my miracle baby. And for the first time in my life, I found my health moving forward. Next, I need to thank Sandrine. She created a non-profit organization. Then there are the m...

A.C.R.L.: Winter at the Whitlock's
http://drewcarrie.blogspot.com/2013/02/winter-at-whitlocks.html
The latest doings and or/crazy antics. Tuesday, February 19, 2013. Winter at the Whitlock's. As far as snow goes, this winter has been lame. We have gotten many days with terrible driving conditions but only one inch of snow at a time! No sledding for us. However, no amount of snow is too small for this girl to attempt a snow angel (with tongue stuck out to catch the falling snow). Also, wrestling occurs every day throughout the year, until Daddy falls asleep, that is. This is usually how it begins.
