Ezra's Space: Right Where I Am: Two years, nine months, and 1 day
http://ezramalik.blogspot.com/2011/05/right-where-i-am-two-years-nine-months.html
Monday, May 30, 2011. Right Where I Am: Two years, nine months, and 1 day. The car stops and I pop out and open the door to the backseat where a little boy grins back at me from his carseat. 'Ready to go to a new playground? This is where I am right now. Happy raising my living child. The rainbow baby who came after. Content even. And yet the grief is still there. What Ezra taught me is to love and mean it, to find joy and inhabit it. This is how I have come to live my days since he left. I was going to ...

Ezra's Space: Two years...
http://ezramalik.blogspot.com/2010/08/two-years.html
Sunday, August 29, 2010. I had absolutely no inkling how drastically and completely the world was about to come crashing down around me. In the two years since, I've come to own my new self.more sad, more cynical, more connected, more compassionate. But sometimes I do miss that naive happy woman. My sweet sweet Ezra, I miss you and love you so very much. Every day. Especially today. Always. Thinking of you and your family today. Remembering your beloved son, Ezra. August 29, 2010 at 8:50 AM. Holding you ...

Ezra's Space: July 2010
http://ezramalik.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 16, 2010. I never intended to stop writing in this space when my Sunflower arrived. I will admit that for much of the past six and a half months, I pretty much shelved my grief. It's not that it hasn't been present. I haven't had. This was supposed to be the easy part, the happy ending, no? I just miss him, I really really do. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A Note from Ezra's Mommy. Ezras Mommy and Daddy. The letters spell Ezra in Hebrew. Forever imprinted in our Hearts. Glow in the Woods.

Ezra's Space: April 2010
http://ezramalik.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 18, 2010. Guest Post from Ezra and Micah's Daddy: Burying Your Child. On Friday, Rachel Maddow had a man on her show. His daughter had been killed in 1995 in the Oklahoma City bombing. He said the pain is still there. When your parents die, you bury them on the mountaintop, he said. But when your child dies, you bury them in your heart, and keep them there. So simple, yet so profound! Sunday, April 11, 2010. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A Note from Ezra's Mommy. Ezras Mommy and Daddy. Betwee...

Ezra's Space: February 2010
http://ezramalik.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 27, 2010. A Homecoming.of sorts. Yesterday was my 6 week postpartum appointment. Never mind that Micah is now 8 1/2 weeks old - the blizzards of 2010 have postponed my last two scheduled appointments. In fact a blizzard was predicted yesterday too - luckily all we got was flurries. So you're here to followup on your procedure? Um nothis is my 6 week appointment. I gave birth to a son. He died. I call that a procedure. There was a certain sense of.dare I say it. But I don't. Medical...

Ezra's Space: January 2010
http://ezramalik.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 13, 2010. While pregnant with Sunflower I never could envision this part.even up to the day we went to the hospital to be induced, I didn't fully believe that we'd be leaving with a real live baby. Even while nesting and preparing for his arrival, it didn't truly feel real. Afterall, I've never had this happy ending before. Saturday, January 9, 2010. Micah, in Hebrew, means 'who resembles G-d? Amir, in Hebrew and Arabic, means 'prince'. We believe Micah chose this name for himself ...

The Maybe Baby (Babies): 10/01/2010 - 11/01/2010
http://www.themaybebaby.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
The Maybe Baby (Babies). Childhood cancer survivor. That's the good news. Bad news? Chemo and radiation zapped my eggs leaving me infertile. Egg donors were found, several attempts were made and finally we were blessed with beautiful twin girls - born too early (21 wks, 5 days on Dec. 5, 2008). Hang out with me while we savor life with Big Baby Boy, who arrived via gestational surrogate on March 25, 2013. Wednesday, October 27, 2010. Day 15 - house, well, home. Day 15 - what you like about your house?

Reading the Bricks: March 2014
http://readingthebricks.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
There are books and bricks and books that could easily function as bricks. BleakAlong - Post the Finalmente. Every time we finish a readalong, The Doors "This is the End" plays in my head the whole time I'm writing my final post. It's very distracting, especially because for most of my young life I was pretty sure that Val Kilmer was. Jim Morrison and that is a very handsome movie poster, I tell you what. Have I mentioned this before? Not to mention that the splash page. On her website is delightful.

We’ve got our own day care center happening in our backyard with about 25 kids from the neighborhood! November 27, 2006. Posted by suekyung under mozambique. People have asked me recently – what did Thanksgiving look like at the Chos’ in Xai Xai? Magazine characterized as an easy 30 minute meal. (Does anyone else besides me think that is funny?

The kids on the right – the first two, Paisin (short for “little daddy”) and his older sister live across the street and Erica, the little girl on the far right, is our guard’s daughter. They are the cutest! Erica is usually quiet around us, but apparently gets really bossy and talks a ton when she is playing with Paisin.
