So you’ve already seen the sweet result of this labor and delivery, but I wanted to share with you the slideshow I presented to mom and dad last week of their son’s birth. Tracy is a dear friend and I asked her if I could shoot her delivery. She and her husband agreed and we …

She’ll be coming ’round the mountain when she comes…
Tuesday has been sleeping through the night for almost a month—hooray! Tuesday takes up to 3 hours of back patting, rocking and singing to to fall asleep—boo! In my songs-I-know-the-words-to repertoire everything is feeling a bit old and I’m really digging deep for some new material. In some cases that material is actually being dug …

Help me to do it myself
I’ve been reading a lot of Montessori books lately as I work on fixing up part of the basement to be a sort of preschool learning area for Tuesday. The phrase, “Help me to do it myself” comes up a lot. I love the idea of it, but we’re having trouble with the implementation over …
