love love love, lucky girls yours are!
Love, Jemima
You know it’s coming. The date has been circled on the calendar for five months now. The paper chain hanging over my daughter’s bed, counting down the days, is all but gone. All the prep work has been done. She’s been allowed out of her pen, just her, each night to jump up on the milking table...

Sending peace and love your way... praying for a speedy recovery for little Lachlan and peace and security for Finn!
yearning for normal
At a post-op check-up today, the doctors decided to re-admit Lachlan to the hospital due to an infection at his incision site. If I can see through the tight throat and mother's heartache, I can tell you that my baby is feeling better. His smiles are more frequent, and he seemed to thrive in his...

one of the most beautiful babies that I've ever seen!
she
There's something I didn't tell you before Annabel was born. I knew she was a she. Well, really, I knew she was a girl way back in October, because sometimes a Mama just knows these things, you know? It's true. And I just knew. But we knew for certain a few weeks before her arrival, at my fi...
thanks for the great links... now I just need to learn how to tie one of those upside down bandanas for my hair while I'm sweating my butt off in the garden!
why we have children
When I got home from exercising last night, I was met at the door by Mary : Mary : Do you go to the Arena Club to lose weight? Me (weighing my words carefully, wanting so much to protect them as long as I can from every body conscious thought ) : Well....I go there to exercise. Mary : Oh. Beca...
Sometimes, I think you are my long lost sister... well pump issues, ice tea... My grandmother only used red rose tea (12 tea bags) to a 1/2 gallon tea pot? 1 1/2 cups sugar, mint and lemon on the side... and the stuff is potent! I've switched to decaf but now I know how she got everything done!
a recipe for sweet relief
Prepare yourself. Now begins the season where I need to discuss the weather constantly. Good-bye Maryland Spring, hello Maryland heat and humidity. We obviously have no air conditioning in this little gem of a farmhouse. I find myself relentlessly checking the weather, the weather maps, the hour...

great sweater (I personally love your whole outfit-you're rockin the scarf)! I love your upgrades, too- the three-quarter sleeves and the buttons...
Shalom!
This sweater has already been everywhere with me. I've found myself - often with little ones in tow - sitting outside of a doctors office desperately seeking some grass and trees and sky and fresh, fresh open autumn air. I've been amazed (and grateful) at the places where such a breath of f...
