I've always tried to keep this blog as honest as possible. Sure I'm snarky and enjoy making thinly veiled references and inside jokes for my friends and loved ones. Yes I may have a bit of a dramatic bent. Sure I may oooh and ahhh over things that others find mediocre. But all of that … Continue reading start making sense…

It's strange to me sometimes as the parent of an only child, to watch K's interactions with me, her father, her friends, my friends, the world. I was never an only child. On the day I was born my brother was nearly three and quite happy being an only child. I could regale you with … Continue reading for matty…

I've been napping. Asleep at the wheel a bit. I'll be back posting soon but in the meantime please enjoy this quiet time to yourself. Or until I'm back to my bloggy best you could read my tweet stream. I can pack a lot of not saying a thing into 140 characters and I do … Continue reading Shhh!

A new story to read or a new chapter to begin. The pjs change. Sometimes the cats curl up at the foot of her bed. … Continue reading little sleeps

Each moment changing, evolving, forming us as we continue on our paths. But there is no universal scale with which to weigh … Continue reading time

Eight years ago my life changed in the most amazing way. I met the most remarkable person. Someone who will be tied to my heart, my life, my existence for all time. It was eight years ago today that my beautiful daughter K was born. When I held her in my arms I didn't imagine … Continue reading eight

After a week on the road, and I use the term "on the road" very loosely, I'm reminded of a few things that make being home truly special. Though I had a fantastic trip to Austin, the joy of it was more about experiences, opportunities and fun than it was about attending the actual SXSWI … Continue reading no place
