It’s My Birthday And I’ll Play If I Wanna

fter all the events of this month, my 44th birthday is kinda anticlimactic. I mean, come on. Zara’s birth, my first Mother’s Day, graduation and getting a few more letters behind my name…turning 44 is just like, whatever. At least it beats the alternative. Since I was not in the most “let’s celebrate” mood, my [...]

Our Peapod

am overwhelmed. You’ve given AdoringHusband and me such an outpouring of warm congratulations on the new addition to our family. It would take me the a ridiculously long time to reply to everyone individually. And I’m taking all my time enjoying our little peapod. So I hope you won’t mind my choosing to say a [...]


Zara Elyse is Here

veryone, Today was the day. The lady we’ve all been waiting for has made her debut. Zara Elyse was born today at 2:29 PM. She came into the word crying and pooping, showing that both ends were functioning properly. She weighed 7 lbs 2 oz and was 20 1/4″ in length. AdoringHusband and I were [...]
