Caleb

The Tea Party

August 9, 2010

As a mother, I’ve managed to heap a lot of guilt onto my shoulders.  I don’t take the kids to the pool by myself, and I don’t venture out to many activities with the three of them unless I have help.  While I have gotten braver this summer and attempted more, sometimes I wonder if [...]

Faith Like a Child

June 22, 2010

I can’t get anything by Caleb; he is too bright.  Always asking questions, he stores away the answers in his computer of a mind, a mind that does not forget.  I have to make sure I answer Caleb truthfully and carefully because, chances are, we will come back to our conversation again someday. When Caleb [...]

Mama’s Boy

June 4, 2010

I know exactly where he gets it from. When I was six years old, my dad got a job transfer from New Jersey to Georgia.  We left behind all of our extended family and our tiny dollhouse in Woodbridge to venture to this land called “the South.” As part of the preparation for our move, [...]

April 26, 2010

10. During lunch your 4-year-old informs you that the strawberries you are eating are the only fruit that has seeds on the outside, and you realize for the first time that those little things on strawberries are seeds. 9. When you tell your 4-year-old that you’re not exactly sure how the doctor got his baby [...]

It’s About Relationship

January 13, 2010

I took Caleb to the doctor today AGAIN.  I’m not positive, but I believe I may have taken one child or the other or the other (or possibly two at the same time) to the doctor every week for four weeks.  But who’s counting? My poor boy has sported different shades of gray over the [...]

In a Funk

January 11, 2010

If you decide to read this post, beware.  I don’t really have a plan for where I am going with this entry, but I needed to write.  I’m feeling a little sad today, and writing always helps.  Since it’s only 11:15 A.M., I want to start while I still have time to fix my mood [...]

Food from Heaven

October 13, 2009

As I cut the butternut squash in half length-wise, a sweet aroma tickled my nose.  I marveled at the beautiful orange color that was contained within the thick, pale skin and took pleasure scooping the seeds and stringy flesh out of this fruit.  I cut the squash into cubes and thought to myself, “Yes, this [...]

Quality of Life 1: Calling All Tree-Huggers!

October 8, 2009

I would love to say that my family takes care of the environment, that we are friendly to Mother Earth, but I know the mess I seem to clean in the bathroom every day has to be toxic.  When it comes to the dilemma of whether or not I allow my son to wash his [...]

A Little Drizzle

October 5, 2009

Note to myself:  You actually wrote a good deal of this post last week but were interrupted many times from the kids and life.  Tonight is the first chance you had to finish.  Therefore, the ‘two Sundays ago’ and ‘yesterday’ and all time references aren’t accurate, anymore.  Oh, well.  You weren’t about to do the [...]
