Mother’s Day Tea
May 07, 2010"I still feel strange being the Mother in the Mother’s Day scenario. When I think of Mother’s Day, I think patent leather shoes and church and lilies. But here I am, perched in the too-small church preschool chair, being served sweet tea and cookies by a four-year-old. Share/Save"

Anxiety and Other Goings-On
December 18, 2009"Things we’ve been up to. . . Bad news first: I think I am having anxiety problems. I have no idea what is causing it, other than that I haven’t been working out. This is a new one for me. I bet it will clear up when I get more exercise. Anyone else have this problem? On [...]"
