My boys may all look alike, but I’ll tell you what, they sure are ALL different. This was my morning with Benjamin — as he had a fit over the fact that he was wearing a handsome shirt (polo tee). Alexander won’t leave the house without one on and Benjamin wanted it burned off his body. Oh, man… can’t wait [...]

This is me now… This is me then, as in 1960… I guess I didn’t want my brother touching my Hula Hoop.

I spent all day Friday in bed or on the couch… sick. I’m hardly ever sick (as most moms know, we’re really not allowed to take sick days), but this past Friday I just was hit, and hit hard. Working from home, I’m with the boys all day… with my husband not working, he’s home with me, but the day [...]

I still cannot believe I caught this on camera. This is one of those memories I will be showing over and over and over again for years to come. We had each of the boys come down one at a time.

My wish came true… and Alexander was born 3 days after William turned 1. And from the beginning – they were [...]

I had another post to put up this morning… but then something changed and I decided to hold off on the post until tomorrow. I was driving the boys home from preschool today. Every Friday is swim day. For some reason Alexander is terrified of the water. He was a little fish this past summer at our pool club – [...]

I happened to capture this moment. What can I say… it warmed my heart.

My husband snapped this photo as the boys walked into preschool together.  It was Alexander’s 1st day.  And if there was anything to melt my heart… it was my sons being not only brothers, but friends.

Friday nights. Work is done for the week. It’s relaxing time with the kiddies without thinking of any deadlines for the next day. Oh… I love Friday nights! We have had to get a little creative since the addition of Henry to the family. It’s not as easy going out and about with a 3 year old, 2 year old, [...]
