Nighttime chatter
Me: Go to sleep Delia.
Delia: I can’t, it’s dark in my sleep.

Birthday Love
The happiest birthday to my husband because of whom I can be at home to raise and school our daughters. He who works so hard, day and night, to provide a beautiful home and provisions of the like. The man who we owe our disneyland days to. The same man that my girls ask every day if he has to go to work and are disappointed when the answer is yes. To that winter solstice man I give my love and...

Charlotte Says
Me (from the other room): “Charlotte, how’s the baby doing?”
Charlotte: “She’s moving and she’s pretend sleeping!”
Right Now
First time on this side of a due date with no babe in arms just a large and in charge mid section. Uncharted territory.

little hearts
Charlotte: Mom, do you know how much I love you?
Me: No, how much?
Charlotte: I love you so much there’s little hearts coming out of my big heart.
This she says to me as I lie in bed with her waiting for her fall to sleep. Sometimes she knows just what to say.

little Bobby Rhys
I’m stopping in during our vacation to post about the birthing of the wee Bobby Rhys by this lovely lady. I have been lucky enough to witness two (other than my own) home births and both have been Carlee’s. Bodie, being the first, was so special as it was on Christmas eve, it was Carlee’s first home birth, and my first chance at partaking in a home birth while not being the one...

the fairy garden

Not sure how she found out about it but the class was provided by Cottage Home and Garden in the adorable Los Rios District of San Juan Capistrano. After sitting through the instructional portion of the workshop we wandered around...

Ooh, a movie to look forward to. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is looking like a must see, in the theater proper, kind of movie. Especially because of cool music like this little ditty by Broken Social Scene. Wanna go to the movies?
