“Eloise, make Mae smile.” Yeah…this isn’t what I meant. But it’s one of my favorite photos from our wonderful holiday. My doubts about whether we were going to have a repeat performance of our sick and anxious Thanksgiving lingered until the very last minute…but then…a Christmas Miracle! Both girls magically felt better just in time to […]
Wishing you and yours a safe and healthy holiday filled to the brim with laughter and joy.
Sleep training suuuuuuuuuucks! Especially when it catches you off-guard, during the “most wonderful time of the year.” Our Thanksgiving didn’t go exactly as planned. Baby Mae decided to mix it up and come down with bronchitis while we were in Ohio visiting family. We have been on a downward spiral ever since, and hit rock-bottom […]
I’m dreaming of a healthy Christmas!
Hang in there, Jenny; better days are coming!
For Mike: my rock, my love, my past, my future. For Eloise: my laughter, my pride. For Hannah: my heart, my journey, my perspective. For Mae: my hope, my joy. For Dorey: my deep breath, my buddy. I have so much to be thankful for this holiday season and every day. Wishing you and yours […]
That’s beautiful. You always know what to say and how to say it.
Happy Thanksgiving to a wonderful family! Have an amazing day!
I’m going to go out on a limb and make the assumption that every one of us knows that social media can become addictive. Especially when emotions are running high, and we are all searching for comfort, for safe places to feel like we are understood and belong. For reassurance and maybe justification. For the […]
This makes a lot of sense, Jen. I’m thinking of doing the same thing. You have a beautiful family and they are so much more important to focus on now. Love to you all!
I went off Facebook for a few months last year and it was wonderful! I had a more positive outlook on life because I wasn’t obsessing over anything and everything, and I had time to concentrate on the things that ARE important to me. I hope this gives you time to appreciate the little things that slowly add up to make life warm and loving. And of course I will not stop reading and waiting for your wonderful photos, both personal and professional 🙂
Your words resonate with me — I need to take a Facebook hiatus as well. I hold out hope that FB swings back to be a positive way to connect with friends, but I worry that it may not. Regardless, I look forward to reading your blog posts!
Good for you. You know you will always have my support and love.
I wish I had your self control and will power. I have been thinking about getting rid of Facebook for a while now but I am just too addicted 🙁
Stay strong, seester.
Thank you for all of the support, ladies! It’s funny how often I go to sign on to Facebook without even thinking…what a habit it had become. This is an interesting experiment…it’s forcing me to take a closer look at my blog and website and other online tools. We will see what happens next, but I appreciate the comments!
It WAS a terrific Christmas! Thanks for letting Vu and I spend that special time with you!
