Tonight my 2 year old, for the first time noticing the moon through our kitchen window, asked in her sweet Spanglish, “Mira! Luna coming Dessa?”  She wanted to know if the moon was coming to visit her.  I told her [...]

Oh my sweet little baby, I just came from  your side.  Like every night, you woke up and called for me.  Not Papi or your grandmother you love so much or any cousin, friend or family you adore but me, Mami.  Every night, without fail you call for me, groggy…more asleep than awake, staring into [...]

I just got home from a fun filled day of lunch and the children’s museum with old college girlfriends and their kids.  I should rephrase that because these ladies were my bestest friends in college; the kind of friends whose lives I’ll always follow, even if just from a distance, and whose voices and stories [...]

My family got a great holiday surprise yesterday when we found out we’re having another girl!  We’re super excited and can’t wait to meet her.  I’ll be in a cloud through the holiday festivities dreaming of names and all the outfits I’ll be buying.
Wishing all my readers a happy and joyous holiday!

Jeremy and I are bad holiday shoppers.  Christmas is 2 days away and we’ve got a handful of presents for about two dozen folks, not to mention I’ve got to work both days leading up to the festivities.  We don’t even have a gift for Dessa yet!  We were on a manhunt for Kota the [...]

I haven’t been outside, not counting my two minute trip to check the mail yesterday, since Friday at around 1:45pm.  It’s been snowing on and off since then but I can’t blame it on the snow.  I could very easily have jumped in my car and gone for a spin, done a little much needed [...]

I just tweeted this same thing awhile ago but it is just too funny not to post.  I went in to check on Dessa who’s sleeping in her new striped princess PJs from Disney.  The room is pretty dark except for a weak little night light.  All I could see in the dark were her [...]
