Search for "writing" | Mommy Ever After

Golly, I’m sorry.

(So, #febphotoaday/20) 20. Handwriting #febphotoaday/19 19. Something you hate to do. The Laundry. I'm sure you can imagine why.

In the 18 months since I began writing this blog, I have written some weird things. But, for some reason, I think that this might take the cake. You see, lately, I have been so positively overwhelmed, as I have witnessed so many good deeds; acts of love and kindness, both in my real life and in my ...

A case of the crazy.

Today, I took my daughter to the to the post office. As we stood in line waiting to buy our stamps, I noticed the guy behind me. He was fidgeting. He kept putting his hands in his pockets. What is he doing? Does this man have a gun? Is he going to hold up the ...

About Mommy

Hey there! Hi! Thank you so much for stopping by. You may been here before. Thanks so much for sticking around. But, perhaps you're new here. Perhaps you've wandered these parts before, but you're not sure. Perhaps you need something to jog your memory. Perhaps you're not a newbie, per se, but haven't been here since the beginning.

It’s my Blogiversary and I’ll give thanks if I want to.

Happy Blogiversary, friends! Here! I've baked you these cupcakes*! Take a bite. Put your feet up. Stay a while. Truly, it is hard for me to believe that it has been a year since I typed my first entry of Mommy, Ever After. I remember that day perfectly. What seemed like a spontaneous decision was actually born out ...

Coming back ’round again.

Here I am. I'm back from a wri-atus of sorts. You see, it was nearly a month ago now that I made the decision to close the door to this chapter. Not because I didn't love writing my "ever after". I did. I loved chronicling my days with my little one; I loved the intimate relationship I was able to develop ...

Some things you’ve missed:

Things have a bit quiet here in the Land of Mom. Well, not in the Land of Mom, but here in the cyberland version of Ever After. It's not that I haven't had what to share; quite the opposite, in fact. I have a million posts composed on my Blackberry, scribbled down on note paper and in my ...

‘Twas the night before Valentine’s Day

and the babe and I are busy picking out her heart day ensemble. Lola and Zig gave it their stamp of approval. So, you know, we're all good now. And, while we're on the subject, as I was just writing the date, I realized that today, February 13, 2011 is exactly the 10 year anniversary of a great milestone in my own life; the ...

Stats

So, this month, for the very first time, I neglected to write a Monthaversary tribute to my daughter. You know, like when she was five months and six months and seven months and eight months... And it's not that I've been forgetful or busy teaching. It's that I can't put into words how much this little 9 month old means to me. I can't find the ...

Pennies from heaven

If you know me, you know that I have a thing for feathers. They mean something to me; they serve as signs from the Universe and they remind me that my lost loved ones are near. They are a part of my deeply superstitious nature, and I believe in their power. But, feathers are not the only symbols that have ...
