Dancing with Peanuts

The other night, we dusted off the old Charlie Brown Christmas tape and popped it in the VCR. (Well, technically it wasn’t too dusty as we usually watch it all year round.) Bump was excited to watch it as this is really the first year he’s been aware of Christmas traditions and [...]

The Sorrows May Last for a Night

Our family remembers this day. Four years ago, in the wee hours of the morning, the matriarch of my husband’s family passed into the next life.

Two

Today is the “day” that Bump celebrate his birthday. Two years ago my little boy was a bundle of joy in our arms after a night of labor. I will recall the story again in honor of this day.
