In recent weeks, I have had the privilege of watching as my daughter's obsession with music has soared to new heights. She sings along to the radio. She writes her own songs ("Sunglasses. I want sunglassES on right NOW. Doggie wears sunglassES TOO. Mommy, sunglassES! Wear sunglassES to Zeydie's offICE!") She plays notes on the piano in time and turns ...
Time may change me…
So, rock 'n' rollers, do you hear it? ...the sound of us making some ch-ch-changes, yet again. And while I'm so happy about all of the new and exciting opportunities being afforded to us, they also make me nervous. (The audible "it" I mentioned above could also be a reference to the sound of my jaw clenching at night. ...
Oh Happy (Mother’s) Day.
Oh happy day, indeed. In the 23 months since I first began keeping this "baby book", I have worked towards defining what it means to be a mother.

Scenes from The Bean/Happy Birthday, Twin!
So, I've been keeping a bit of a secret from you. Actually, it's kind of big... (...at least in this land....the Land of Mom, that is.) 2 weeks ago, I spent my first weekend away WOB (without babe).

Just some things.
This past week has kept me oh-so-busy. Like, Bizzy. And it's been good. But, it has not left me with the time or energy to put my pen to paper to keyboard, or what have you. So, as a way to fill you in (or an attempt to make an excuse), here are some things. Some things I've done since we spoke ...
