Rest In Peace

Rest in peace, Tuesday Fiona Whitt. I never met you, but I love you.
May All That Is support your family in this time of great sorrow.
May you be surrounded by love and care taking.


Peace

Last night I received my Tuesday charm in the mail. This morning I read this post by her mother.
Jane said it eloquently. Mamie said it eloquently. I, on the other hand, have worn my charm all day, warm against my neck, unable to find the right words. I wrote [...]


Beanie Mountains

The boys’ great-aunt Debbie gave them a box of Beanie Babies over Christmas. They love the little critters! They love to know their names, pet them, hug them and most of all, bury each other in them.

First they pretended to sleep:

Then Forest jumped on the towel:

Then Peek-a-Boo under the towel:

and finally, Logan put it over his head and chased Forest around as a ghost:

Got [...]


Pretending to Cook

The boys imaginations are really blossoming and I find that they can self entertain for longer and longer periods of time. A few weeks ago they pulled out pots and pans to “cook” their fish crackers. Forest always says he’s making eggs.


Glutton for Punishment


Testing…one…two

I’m experimenting with the Wordpress app for the iPhone today. But what I really want to do is record the two cute conversations that I over-heard this morning.
I’m starting to catch lots of little conversations between the boys and it’s one of the fun parts of this age. Like when Logan was yelling [...]
