A post-it note to Lucy

Dear Lucy,

You are a really sweet dog. While I know that chewing on sticks is one of your favorite outdoor pastimes, wooden blocks are NOT sticks. Would you kindly leave them for the kids to play with? You have no idea how upset I will be if I don’t have enough replacement letters for the rest of Mikayla’s first year pictures.

I’ll give you one hint as to what your punishment may be if you continue…lots of “gentle” pets from the nine month old that lives in our house.

Thanks so much for your cooperation,

Your Human mom.

Why Do I blog?

Welcome. Why do I blog? I blog for my two little girls so that when I am long gone, soaking up guilt-free sun rays, laying on a big fluffy cloud up in Heaven, they can remember. They can remember the simple things. The little things. Those things that are small to everyone else, but mighty to this mommy's heart. I want my children to know that not only the major milestones were remembered, but also the little milestones. Her first bike ride, her first bee sting, the first time she planted seeds in the garden. They will both know, not only were they loved deeply, but also the magnitude of that depth. Why not just journal? Because part of me hopes that in my day to day writing, someone out there in this mighty World can relate. Can relate to one little thing that runs through all of us--the desire to remember the times that made us laugh, smile, cry and most importantly, treasure our loved ones.
