http://www.lifeintheclarklane.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Life in the Clark Lane. The Adventures of Jim, Amelia, Lilly, Jack, Hannah and Eliza. Monday, March 30, 2015. A 34th Birthday, a Second Birthday, and a Trip to the Dentist. Making a giant birthday card for Jim. What more could a Dad want for his birthday? And then, a week later, this little one turned two! Not too happy about having to come inside while the big kids were still playing in the snow! Our weekends have been relatively quiet- birthday parties here and there, and there have been some busy tuto...

Life in the Clark Lane: October 2014
http://www.lifeintheclarklane.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Life in the Clark Lane. The Adventures of Jim, Amelia, Lilly, Jack, Hannah and Eliza. Thursday, October 30, 2014. Where Do the Days Go? It gets harder and harder to document life in our busy little family. Ironically, the harder it is for me to sit down and write, the more I want to do it. I know these days are so special and fleeting, and there's so much that I want to remember about them. I didn't pee in the yard today." Lilly has mentioned it a few times as well and has asked to have Grace over ag...

Life in the Clark Lane. The Adventures of Jim, Amelia, Lilly, Jack, Hannah and Eliza. Monday, September 8, 2014. First Day of School, 2014. Putting my love of the Montessori classroom aside, there's a little part of me that is sad today. That same ache that I had on Lilly's very first day. Lilly, ready for Kindergarten soccer. Waiting at the bus stop in the morning with some of the neighborhood children. We do it every morning before getting in the car and going to school! Another morning at the bus stop.

DIALOGUES: November 2012
http://ajourneywithwords.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
A Few Discussions Worth Reading. A Few Not. Sunday, November 25, 2012. A Love Affar With My Washing Machine. If you were to walk around my apartment, one of the last things you might notice would be my washing machine. This is probably for a few reasons:. 1) There are more interesting things to look at, such as the view from my balcony, or the built-in seat in my shower. 2) The washing machine is standard-looking —. White, with stylish touches of chrome —. Probably anywhere from 1:54 -2:13. Fantastic, I ...

DIALOGUES: Nine Stops
http://ajourneywithwords.blogspot.com/2013/01/nine-stops.html
A Few Discussions Worth Reading. A Few Not. Tuesday, January 8, 2013. I kept reading as the train headed towards the second stop and only looked up because the people around me were moving and bumping into me. I do not like being bumped into and I wanted to give someone a dirty look. But the people were just making way for a mother and her little girl and they are what I want to tell you about. I went back to reading my Kindle (Brendan Early and Dana Moon were in a shootout with Phil Sundeen and his gang...

DIALOGUES: April 2012
http://ajourneywithwords.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
A Few Discussions Worth Reading. A Few Not. Tuesday, April 10, 2012. To Washington and Back, Part 1. My diesel truck became known as the "tortuga" for no real reason other than "tortuga" is a fun word to say, especially if you can deliver it with a thick, dramatic spanish accent like something straight out of a telenovela. It took practice, of course, but we had practiced it plenty of times on drives to and from swimming workouts. On one of those flights was a woman whose arms were bigger than Kristin's ...

Life in the Clark Lane: February 2015
http://www.lifeintheclarklane.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Life in the Clark Lane. The Adventures of Jim, Amelia, Lilly, Jack, Hannah and Eliza. Saturday, February 28, 2015. November 4, 2014. Here we go again! I couldn't hold out very long as I saw two of my best friends a few days after finding out, and they looked at my face and they knew. And then I turned down a cucumber jalapeno margarita, which I would never, ever. Do, and there was no going back. And went on our way with a little ultrasound photo in hand. And then, to my pregnancies with Jack. The most ex...
