One From the Archives – Every Day Love
This post originally ran on the blog on February 15, 2014. It’s worth saying again. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I’ve been thinking a lot about love the last couple of days. For starters, there’s that rather large and obvious thing called Valentine’s Day that has just passed us by. Kinda can’t miss that. Love it or hate it,…

A Better Way to Think About Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day is pretty stupid. But even so, I still kind of love Valentine’s Day. We don’t do a huge hearts and flowers and romantic Valentine’s dinner thing here. Are you kidding? We don’t do that ever. The Hub and I are two of those people who think the whole once-a-year-over-romanticized-retail-driven-frenzy of Valentine’s day is nonsense.…

TToT – The Non-Routine Routine
My disappearance this week was not intentional. In fact, I had all sorts of great ideas planned for this space – and most were actually in a semi-written state. But somehow the first week back on routine went a little awry and I ended up with a cold to boot. Two of the five school…

TToT – Soft Landing
Our start to the New Year has been a very soft landing. I think I first heard the term used in conversation when one of Kidzilla’s preschool teachers talked about giving the children a “soft landing” routine in the morning. At the time I thought, “OK whatever,” but it’s actually a nice concept. And here in…

TToT – Between the Holidays
So here we are. It’s the end of a year once again and the beginning of a new one waits just ahead. I have been feeling rather reflective the last couple of weeks, even amidst the busy-ness of the holidays. Here between the Christmas and New Year holidays seems a good time to do that. The…

Happy Holidays to You!
Well, here we are, friends. Christmas is upon us and last evening we lit our final night of Hanukkah candles! I’ll probably be dark for a few days while we do our Chirstmas-ing, but I have a wonderful soup nearly ready to go up and I’ll certainly be in for the TToT this weekend! I thank…

TToT – Enjoying Life!
We have been busy here, friends! I have to tell you this. I can’t remember quite enjoying the time leading up to the holidays as much as I am this year. It’s different. I could ramble on here for a few paragraphs about all the specifics of why, but I’m not going to. Let me…

The Spirit of Christmas
Saturday was the feast of St. Nicholas. My Daughter woke to find her shoes filled with clementines and chocolate truffles with pretty wrapping and of course she was delighted. When else does a child get a treat for not putting away their shoes at night? She positively floated to our room that morning, I am…
