In the span of 20 hours, I was given two signs, one from each of my angels. I am choosing to interpret them as reminders to be strong. It is hard, sometimes, to remember, but, as my fortune cookies said on Sunday night, "Fate will find a way." Yesterday my mom randomly spotted this feather on the ground, next ...
This morning, one of my cherished new friends sent this video to me, to help chase some of my sick babies blues away. [youtube=http://youtu.be/XqLTe8h0-jo] She didn't know that The Beach Boys concert with my family was my favorite concert ever. EVER. She didn't know that "God only knows what I'd be without you." is the phrase that I ...
A funny thing just happened. Funny as in curious and noteworthy; I was just cuddling in bed with my husband and the baby. I heard my daughter playing quietly in the next room, not sure when she woke up, but knew she was entertaining herself. But I wanted her. I wanted the four of us to ...
I have written on this site, since it's inception, about my Nanny. My Nanny was my grandmother on my dad's side. She was incredibly special to me, and I lost her when I was 13 years old after a furious 6 month battle with cancer. She is why I have a thing for feathers and lucky pennies. She ...
You know that time of day, when you've been up since 5:30 am and not just up but on, and you are juggling two children at once and a particularly needy dog and find yourself scrubbing the floors and filling up cups of orange juice and bowls of donut holes and folding laundry and not taking a moment to catch ...
Perhaps I should back up a bit. As I mentioned, the doctor told me that because of the nature of my contractions, the difference I was feeling (despite having already been through FOUR false alarms), I should come in to Labor and Delivery to be checked out. You should know this about me: I am a positive person, I am ...
and in case you thought that my Nanny missed out on all of the fun on what she once told me was her very favorite holiday.... She most certainly did not.
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 ...
So guess what? I'm officially part of the waddle club, again! No, I'm not pregnant. Tricked ya, didn't I? Seriously, though. This afternoon it hit me. I'm no more mobile today than I was when I was lugging a 7lb baby around in my uterus. Why, you ask? The infant car seat. Trying to schlep a baby (especially a baby who happens to be ...
I believe in angels. I don’t mean that I believe in the winged icons that hang with halos as holiday ornaments. I believe in benevolent forces, the spirits of those we’ve loved and lost, that watch over us, protect us and guide us through our days. When I’ve needed help, or dug down deep for strength, I’ve been ...
