He was so proud to climb this tree.

52 Pick-Up :: Week 21
Week 21 :: One wants to figure skate. One wants to play hockey. I want them always to stay this close. Maybe we’ll all get what we want…… Continue Reading
OM :: The Cat Door
If you visit here, you know I live with all boys. It’s a unique experience, to say the least and to keep my sanity, I must share the boy happenings from time to time. Life with Boys is going to be one of my “themes” next year. I’m one of those people that needs to…… Continue Reading
OM :: The Bye-Bye
Almost every year, we travel to the southwest corner of Connecticut for a Hanukkah party at my husband’s cousin’s house. We’ve gone there in many family incarnations: our family of four; with my in-laws; me alone with the two boys. This year was me alone again with the boys. In past years, it’s been hard…… Continue Reading

But on occasion, they have to leave me home. They are considerate to make sure I’m comfortable or very comfortable (euphemisms…… Continue Reading

OM :: The Life with Boys
Overall, it’s been a fun week on vacation in Colorado with lots of activities and mostly fine weather. What I forget before coming here twice a year is that I will be the lone female. Three adult males and two little boys all living in the same space with me. I’ve mentioned that as a…… Continue Reading
Flickr Photo Friday
A-Dog is taking a class at Jessica Sprague’s site called Photo Editing: Frame-ups and Special Effects. She’s been learning subtle things to use in her photo cards, so it’s been worth it. They have a great community over there, so check it out if it’s something you’re interested in. Happy Friday!… Continue Reading
