On Friday evening, Sean and I had the good fortune to see ukulelist James Hill in concert with his cellist fiancee, Anne Janelle (Davison)… in the company of our not-quite-four-week-old Baby A. We had debated about whether to go, since we would have to buy our baby a ticket, and then there was always the…

Sebastian’s Birthday: A Lullaby for my Children
Monday morning – July 9th, 2012 Dear Sebastian, It’s 9:04 a.m. as I begin this post. It was important to me to write this morning, because I know that at this same hour, one year ago, you were still in my arms. It is exactly the same kind of morning it was on the day…

(Almost) Wordless – Daddy’s Photos
**Lots of bloggers do “Wordless” days (traditionally Wednesdays) on which they don’t write a post, but they share pictures to speak for them.** Daddy takes some great photos with his iPhone.

E Not Liking Grass, Part II: Hindu Gods
I’ve uploaded the sequel to Mission Impossible Baby, just to showcase the diversity of E’s talents. 🙂 Here, he avoids grass by striking poses that you will note are very similar to sculptures of dancing Hindu divinities. In my belly dance class, we’ve been learning some Indian-inspired choreography, and how it’s all about the bends…
