Kately Days: Dear Merritt,

http://katelydays.blogspot.com/2015/04/dear-merritt.html

There's the "making up words to get your point across" heart ("Momma, I 'successed' at falling asleep! Which is not to be confused with the "I had a stroke and can't say words" heart ("Dury Judy? After you learned about my civic duty). In addition to your bounty of hearts, you're brain continues to grow so rapidly and vibrantly that we're not sure how it still fits in your head. Recently you asked, "Why do we live on the bottom of the earth? You better watch out, you better not cry from a raging double e...

Kately Days: Dear Merritt,

http://katelydays.blogspot.com/2013/10/dear-merritt.html

You are four years and one week old. We can not begin to comprehend this. How have you completed four years of life and entered your fifth? Does Not. Compute. Why did I pick you? And you leaned in close and grinned a giant grin and said, "Was I cute? Oh, man. Were you ever. And you still are. I suspect you will probably always be cute. You do this thing where you nuzzle into our necks and whisper the most wonderful things. Thank you for this delicious meal.". I'm so glad to be here with the mommas.".

Kately Days: Dear Merritt,

http://katelydays.blogspot.com/2013/09/dear-merritt.html

In the five months since you last received a letter, we have purchased a house, made it a home, and allowed a television crew to document the process for a national audience. On a scale of zero to solid, I give it a shaky six as far as excuses for not writing go. While we may not have been writing to. You during the hiatus, we've definitely been writing about. So we present here a sort of laundry list of the arbitrary stuff that has fallen out of your mouth in the last 154 days. I asked if you want to go...

Kately Days: Dear Merritt,

http://katelydays.blogspot.com/2013/12/dear-merritt.html

Tonight we bid adieu to 2013 with one of your favorite meals (BRINNER! And tomorrow we'll wake up and begin 2014 together. Because let's be honest: We're not staying up to ring it in because you'll be awake mere hours after midnight. Hopefully we won't have a repeat of Christmas, where you came to our room at 1:45 am and whispered-yelled, " MOMMA, I'M DOIN' THE PLAN! Come straight to our room in the morning. Here's a toast to you learning to snap! And spelling your full name! Here's a toast to your "Sout...

You turned five just a few minutes ago. And a few minutes before that, you were born. How has the sun risen and set over 1,800 times since you first pooped in the bathtub with me? How is it that you uttered "Mah-mee" so emphatically that first time and the world still found a way to keep spinning all these years? How have you been alive for two World Cups and five baseball seasons and 60-something new moons? And during the day? Your brain doesn't quit. Sorry, Don. Or how you pluralize things like Dai...

Kately Days: This Girl Loves Her Wife

http://katelydays.blogspot.com/2014/01/this-girl-loves-her-wife.html

This Girl Loves Her Wife. Mere hours before an Indigo Girls concert last summer, I whipped up this shirt and wore it. You know. Just in case there was any confusion. Erin and I recently made a Teespring campaign. With the same awesomely generic shirt. And we're one away from hitting our goal and having the shirt go to print and donating a quarter of the proceeds to GLAAD. And buy one or share it. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Or should I address this missive to the superhero moniker you requested to be called, but then changed your mind when I put my own spin on it? Dear Captain AMerrittca,. Congrats on making captain by the age of four and a half! One early morning recently while we were all in the Mommas' bed, Mommy was still trying to sleep and you and I were whispering. "I'm an expert at talking," you said. And you were not incorrect. When you discovered that you could roll your stomach and do what we have always known as...

Kately Days: Happy Accidents

http://katelydays.blogspot.com/2013/09/happy-accidents.html

This house we bought? The previous owner was a hoarder. And a cat lady. And the kind of person who didn't bathe, but instead used the tub as a place to hang-dry her assortment of homemade muumuus, most of them cat-themed. But that wasn't the only wonder in the main bathroom. We saw the inside of the house four times prior to our closing date. During the first three viewings (two showings and an inspection), this oddity greeted us from the bathroom counter:. This is what that meant:. That Was. It. And I d...
