All the time to Bennet: “Ha! Good one Bennie!” Her: “What’s that sound?” Me: “It’s the music.” Her: “Oh that’s cool. It sounds like a kid screaming.” “Be quiet upstairs and downstairs because my baby is asleep below the sewing machine table.” To her African American friend: “Your hair is so …

Celebrating Five
Last year Tuesday had a car themed party. And she told me then what the next few parties were going to be, she had it all planned out. I did not expect her to remember or still want the train themed party that was next in the line up twelve months ago because it has …
At Five
Oh sweet, sweet Tuesday, my five year old! How quickly it happens, as they all say. And I’ve loved every minute! I celebrated her trips around the sun with pictures from five wonderful years, and had all this set up so she would see it when she woke up. She was not as surprised as …

I found this photo of Bennie on my phone. She took it of herself while Bj was holding her. I was reading Big Susan to Tuesday. Bennet has a been up for hours. Luckily this the first time in a week that Bj has been able to help in the middle of the night. He’s …
