My Mom-ents: March 2013
http://mymom-ents.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Celebrating the little moments that make up life's biggest blessings. Saturday, March 16, 2013. I love that she comes to my building every day after school and her little "playground" while I'm finishing up is my library. I hope she has lots of memories of playing in the stacks, of finding books about Pompeii and Harriet Tubman, of joining my kids for book club on Wednesdays. I hope that someday she- and her sister- both do what they want in life. A map of Sassy's "spy room" aka the library. That our gir...

My Mom-ents: Fall Fun
http://mymom-ents.blogspot.com/2014/01/fall-fun.html
Celebrating the little moments that make up life's biggest blessings. Thursday, January 2, 2014. This was the sky by the end of the afternoon. SO symbolic: after the storm, blue skies. Love the scary Uni- I mean, Photo- Bomber in the back! The next weekend we camped with Grandma and Pop and guess what? We had a lot of fun- the girls fed the ducks and catfish, Grandma brought a cool skeleton craft, and Mama got in lots of reading by the fire. Heaven! Usually we start carving, the girls are interested for ...

My Mom-ents: September 2013
http://mymom-ents.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Celebrating the little moments that make up life's biggest blessings. Monday, September 23, 2013. We had a great time. KM made some awesome chicken pitas and even my picky eater ate most of it! The girls ran around like crazy with their daughter, B, and their dogs. Then we hung out with some drinks, chocolate chip cheese ball, and late night TV. We did breakfast the next morning (another recipe I had to have! And hung out a while before going to see more friends. Girls with B and her friend. We spent the...

My Mom-ents: May 2013
http://mymom-ents.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Celebrating the little moments that make up life's biggest blessings. Friday, May 24, 2013. I always stop to think of my own mom. And the apologies I owe her. :) As I muddle through this thing called motherhood, I realize how hard it can be, how much it changes you, and now I finally get "it." I get how much my own mother loves me, yet it took becoming a mom myself to truly see the world through her eyes. So for Mother's Day (a little late), I have a few things I'm sorry for. I'm sorry:. 3 That I fought ...

Celebrating the little moments that make up life's biggest blessings. Saturday, January 26, 2013. Me: Can I have a hug? Ke, formerly known as Stinkus: "Of course you can! Me: Did you clean your room by yourself? Ke: "Of course I did! And of COURSE, she doesn't quite say "course" correctly so it's even cuter. Insert tears here. The girl's not taking no for an answer! 4 A few nights ago, I heard something that I thought wouldn't happen for about ten more years. An angry, tearful daughter stormed out of...

My Mom-ents: July 2013
http://mymom-ents.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Celebrating the little moments that make up life's biggest blessings. Monday, July 22, 2013. Somehow the boy I started dating in 1997 has become my husband of twelve years. May 1997: Not sure what's worse, the hair or the couch. Sassy: "I have no words." Ha! 1998 Sassy: "You're wearing old lady lipstick and Daddy looks. Like he's in a bowling tournament.". 2000: Engagement pic with cheesy, awkward hand placement. Honeymoon in Key West. 2005: Family pics and Sassy in the oven! 2008: Friend's wedding in FL.

My Mom-ents: June 2013
http://mymom-ents.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Celebrating the little moments that make up life's biggest blessings. Wednesday, June 26, 2013. Sassy is now 7! She's such a sweet, wise-beyond-her-years kid. Sometimes I forget how young she really is (like when she's tired and whining and crying like a stinkin' elementary kid. Oh wait. . .) So far, the summer she turned 7 has been pretty good. This was her first year playing coach pitch. BIG step up from t-ball! Followed quickly with, "Are they having another pool party? After one night of trying (and ...

Celebrating the little moments that make up life's biggest blessings. Tuesday, January 21, 2014. Resolutions are tough. On one hand, I love the idea of a new year and a new me. I love the idea of working on things that I know I need. But on the other hand, shouldn't every day be a chance to do this? And honestly. . . how long do those resolutions last? Ask the blog I started when I resolved to read a book a week. I got to Week 30-something. . . ). Eighth grade. . . ) and he's very worldly....Some felt...

My Mom-ents: October 2013
http://mymom-ents.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Celebrating the little moments that make up life's biggest blessings. Sunday, October 13, 2013. Just a Little Bit More. Parenthood is made up of a lot of "this won't last forever" moments. Middle of the night feedings are replaced by picky eaters who see a fleck of something green and refuse to finish. Diapers are replaced by big girls who actually wake up in the middle of the night to pee (FINALLY! Expecting to hear that I would be more fun, we could play, go to preschool together, etc.). And the tears ...
