The Right Age
April 28, 2009

Someone once told me that there is something wonderful about every stage of  a child’s life.  Well, I am starting to understand now.   When Camille was an infant, I thought it was terrific!  I was getting used to having our own little family and being a mom. Then she started to smile, crawl and show a personality, [...]

Mama, Mama!
April 27, 2009

Camille has come down with a bad case of Mommy-itis.  She doesn’t want anyone but me.  Some of our friends said their kids went through a seperation stage at about 6 months, that never happened with Camille.  But, she is making up for it now. 

She doesn’t want Daddy or anyone else for the matter.  The [...]

Mom To Mom
April 22, 2009

I like sharing and hearing kid stories!   Just recently, since the sun has come out, I ran into one of our neighbors.  She and her husband have 3 children, one was born a month after Camille.  It’s amazing how similar Mother’s lives really are!

We’ve [...]

Hoppy Easter!
April 14, 2009

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday! We had a great weekend. Camille is the first child in our family in a very long time.  I had no idea what I was missing.   Parents would tell me, before I was a mom, how much fun holidays are with a child.  They were all right [...]

Mean Mother
April 7, 2009

My mother had a framed poem in our hallway for years.  It was called  ”Mean Mother.”    And believe me, my sister and I had one.  The poem talked about knowing where your children are, who they are with.  Giving kids a balanced meal instead of letting them eat candy.  Making them clean up their rooms instead of doing nothing. You [...]

Scared!
April 2, 2009

Camille learned a new word, SCARED!  I don’t know where she learned it from but these days she is scared of everything.   I don’t think  she even knows what it means, but she says she is scared of just about everything!  She’s definitely scared of the Easter bunny, we went to pay him a visit at [...]
