Sensory Sunday: Heartbreak Edition

Recorded after Valentine’s Day at preschool, celebrated by a mother-child tea. My day was hard. Seeing LP at school sort of blew my world apart. I find I don’t spend lots of time with other kids his age. We both find it exhausting. Apparently, he does very well at school. However, today was quite difficult [...]

Did I ever tell you about Little Puppy? I mean really, all of it? He was born June 04. It was an easy labor – really easy. I started of 5cm dilated in prodromal labor, the kind that is non-patterned and not hurting. I arrived at the hospital in the wee hours of the morning [...]
Places I love

There are places we love because of their familiarity. For me going back to my home town means going back to Manhattan, that ever changing busy island. Its changes don’t trouble my heart, Central Park feels the same today as when I roller bladed with my friends in high school. All New York pizza tastes [...]

He knows he can dance, he knows he wants Peace and he’s not afraid to dance it…be offended oh viewers of FOX TV, if you dare. Check it, he’ll do it again, even cuter and more threatening to the war on terror this time!

And that’s why I’m not going to BlogHer. Yep, I don’t know even know the dates of BlogHer because I’m stuck behind a firewall. Also, the other reason I am not going is that I’m too broke for BlogHer. But none of that matters. I just wanted to add to WhyMommy’s roundtable.It’s given me a [...]
