Helping. Healing. Caring.
in my arms tonight. He gave me kisses, hugs, snuggles and love. He let me sing and stroke his hair, then let me rock him right to sleep. And we rocked & rocked and rocked. I’d still be rocking if the M-n-M’s hadn’t needed me to send them off to dreamland. My sweet boy hasn’t […]
how they linger, how they ever touch my soul… (my fave Randy Travis song…) These last few months have rolled by on the waves of change. I blinked and Max started really talking…following many of his caveman sentences with “Now.” Not in a demanding way, just a simple, “Mi, now.” “Book, now,” “Bite, now.” (A […]
Mommy was so inspired by you today! Out of nowhere, you started dancing just like a ballerina, complete with hand movements and tippy toes, twirling about the playroom, you face the picture of sweet peace and bliss. You followed this sweetness with many snuggles for Mommy right before you informed me you wanted to take […]
Me: Charley, Nana has wooden spoons here to. I’m sure she’ll let me use it if you don’t straighten up. Charley: Really Mom? Because I have a bigger one. Me: (mouth hanging open, speechless…) I got nothin’. Moving on…Charley: Mommy, your hair looks crazy! You look just like Aunt Sammy now!Me: Gee thanks…would you like […]

from the last few months of clan mac chaos! Max and Mercy holding hands as they play outside, taking a stroll… Sam sitting up! The first time Mercy uttered my favorite words…I Love You Mama…which she then taught to her sweet brother…sometime in February. How perfect! Mercy talking a blue streak…and I can understand! Max […]
little moments like that….You know that country song? Sing it just a bit for me. Then read all about the moments whose time and date escapes me, but whose details, praise the Lord, don’t. Sam sat up, now he sits…and he rolls…and he scooches a bit. He has this hysterical method of rolling his fat […]
so little time to remember them. 🙁 And life is just whizzing by here in our maniacal mac clan… Sam is almost 10 months old….Max and Mercy talk, listen when it strikes their fancy, demand with clarity and just generally aren’t even remotely babies anymore.Charley…well she talks like a 20 year old and behaves like […]
is poetic and joyful, soft and sweet. An image burned like a brand in my mind until I’m no longer.When my sweet Sam is so tired, I lay him on his back for one last grin and big slobbery kiss…then I heft him over (he is a bit BIG…)He stretches his whole body out, face […]
and start more blogging again, so here I am. A quick note…SO.This week just seems to be the yin/yang of life. A fabulous help has been dropped on my family from above and without her I just don’t think I’d be able to make it through my weeks. On the flip side, I’m not reacting […]
