Wordless Wednesday – She’s got her own style

December 6

My baby is growing up

Violet turned 3 three weeks ago. It’s amazing how quickly she’s changing. She started Montessori a little over 2 weeks ago. She goes to a full-day program 5 days a week (they have full day and half day, 2, 3, and 5 day a week programs). She has adjusted incredibly well, aside from the fact [...]

If you read my Wordless Wednesday post this past week, you’ll see that we just celebrated Violet’s 3rd birthday. And boy did we celebrate!

Seriously. Doesn’t every mom look forward to bedtime? You know, when you can kick back, read a book or watch TV, and just relax. My night usually consists of all the paperwork I didn’t get done during the day at my job, but still. Stuff I can’t do when Violet is awake. But bedtime is [...]

Can’t we just be friends?

Violet is 2 1/2. She loves everyone. Every time she sees a child, she says “Hi friend!”. Everyone is her friend, in her mind. Why can’t we, as adults be that way, too? It breaks my heart every day when she sees the two girls who live behind us outside on their trampoline. She will [...]
