I was and am stuck for a title for this post. That hardly ever happens. And when it does happen in other aspects of my life, it usually pertains to Red. He of the stoic countenance and endless source of hidden snark; delivered with such a matter-of-fact tone that one will rarely doubt the veracity... Continue Reading →
I didn't know how much power words have over us. How they can define us and our lives at various stages. As an expectant mother and a new one my world was mainly ruled by these words: 'heartburn', 'Braxton Hicks', insomnia', 'burps', 'poops', 'nasal aspirators', 'diaper genie', 'Feberizing', 'self-soothing', 'toilet training', 'weaning' and the legion...

I woke up feeling challenged to do atleast one thing that makes a difference in my life; however small. And I wanted to solve a problem; again however small and I did. What is miraculous...

It's quite fitting that this particular post is centered around keeping calm and doing something; especially now. There has been turmoil in the world for a while now and it's recently come to our doorstep. Never a good thing even when we are sitting comfortably far away from the where the danger actually lies. But... Continue Reading →
I just read this article online. I had to express myself. My first reaction was a knee-jerk and rather annoyed one. However, my second reaction was more controlled and contemplative. My child is neurodivergent. But that's not all that he's about. He's an eye-rolling, shaggy-haired teen. He was the most beeyootiful baby in the whole... Continue Reading →
