Oh how I adored the day of the PINK GLOVES.* Oh how happy it made my heart they returned. No matter how ephemerally. It was a PINKtastic day.** (countdown to kinder? five more days…)       *I know it takes time to go back to old posts—but you may think me (her?) a lunatic [...]

Oh people. Believe me I know how vlogs can be a challenge to watch. Word posts are easily read on the sly at the office (yes. I said it.) Word posts are easily read in the morning while the Child is still pretending to slumber & you’re praying she actually falls back asleep. That’s how [...]

(not a foam roller, but it’s what Ive got on my smart phone. d*mn spontaneous posts…) Subtitle: Arent I the one who says if you practice what you preach there’s nary a need to preach? Last night, after a day of active vigorous mama/daughter play, the Tornado gestured vaguely to her side and announced: Mama [...]
