Life after loss with autism, preemies and a rainbow baby
This post contains affiliate links. I’ve been doing almost all of my shopping on Amazon lately. I feel like I’ve got the hang of what brands are decent, where to find good prices and how to make sure my packages won’t first be touring the world for 80 days. The part of my mind that […]
His last show ended a few hours ago and Parker is already hanging clouds in our basement. While most of the cast waited for pizza and stalked the dessert table, Parker circled the stage as set pieces were taken down. A few minutes later he came out for food, a gigantic cloud tucked under one […]
This post should be called “My favorite books since the last time I had time to write about books” but that doesn’t have the same ring to it. I’ve met my Goodreads goal for the year so it’s time to slow down and choose the ones I love. I haven’t done a “favorite books” post […]

I caved the other day and drove through McDonald’s. McKenna had been begging for the new Barbie’s now in the Happy Meal and I had no time to stop at home and make an all organic meal that wouldn’t sit in our digestive systems for a month. As I pulled up to place our order I […]
Dear kids, I hope some day you read this after I have organized all the photos I’ve taken of you into an album or 20. I’m writing, assuming my time on Instagram was well spent, and at some point I had a few moments to print out the ten thousand pictures I took and place […]
Everything has been new lately, new house, new school, new doctors, new hairstylist (more scary than a new doctor) and I’ve found myself telling certain stories over and over. One of them being the names of my kids and, when people ask, how we chose each one. I love telling each story because it takes […]
