At 30 I still wish I could live with my brother (not in that icky way!) I just miss him a lot. Wonderful post!

Thank you!

I have some very vivid memories of haircuts from when I was tiny as well. I wonder if Oscar will remember this. He might.

[...] children. You make me proud. You’ve scared me. You’ve taught me, shared your life, your thoughts and feelings, your family and friends and everything in between. I’ve met some of you in [...]

I was channeling much the same vibe in my Life With Kids column this month. ‘Tis a blink, a single beat of a hummingbird’s wings. Gorgeous post. (I typed ‘pots’ first, which wouldn’t have made a lick of sense).

I don’t have the words to express anything close to a thoughtful response to this tribute to mamas watching their babies grow up…but Bon, The Eyebrows, The Expression! I just fell in love with him all over again

Have been having not-so-good days with my two lately, so this didn’t make me cry, at least – because honestly at this point I would cheerfully hop in a time machine and speed ahead to when they are teenagers. Just so I could get some sleep, and also some solo bathroom time, since I’m guessing no teenagers barge in on their mother when she’s sitting on the toilet.

Otherwise, I’d have been a blubbering mess from the cuteness.

The Cub laughs heartily these days. And we can make him do that, and it’s amazing how big he is (5 months on Th). Monkey is long and grown, but still, because she wants to be, a little girl sometimes. My little girl. Big sister. Ridiculously big.

I love the picture, and the flashbacks. I wonder too, and see the folly of it. But most days I am good in the here and now. Though *I* want Posey’s cookie. Even though it’s a capital B bad idea for me.
