Sunday, April 30, 2006. Baby in the baby swing. Posted by Mama Muse at 9:48 PM. Hanging up the honduran hammocks. Long, lazy Sunday with Noah’s bagels and cream cheeses for breakfast. Lounging in the sunshine, wearing pajamas, mopping the kitchen with a new mop, drinking coffee, roasting beets and sausages, this is what it is all about. We hung the Honduran hammocks, played tic-tac-toe with chalk, and the baby took a long nap. Posted by Mama Muse at 2:30 PM. Saturday, April 29, 2006. I am trying to do so...

mamas muse: November 2005
http://mamasmuse.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 29, 2005. Losing the Battle #1. No War Toys. That is my rule. (was my rule.) No guns. No camouflage stuff. No weapons. NO WEAPONS. But is a light saber really a weapon? Nah That is Jedi stuff. We all need to practice using The Force. But I don’t want my kids to hurt each other so I try a rule where they can only threaten each other. Can Sammy get a bag of, say, policeman action figures? Police are not army. But they have guns. Well, how about firemen? Are they good or evil? Tess clearly...

Monday, October 31, 2005. When they play together I don’t know if I should quick (QUICK! Get something done or watch them with the glazed look of love on my face. Eventually the fun disintegrates into fighting. Lately they fight over What Tess Likes More (The toy frog or the broken cup? Does she like to play peek-a-boo close up or far away? Who is Tess looking at more, me or you? Sometimes I am confused about how to respond to the possessiveness of childhood. I waffle between Every thing belongs to a...

These were in her mouth,. Her hand, or the list would be too long. As you can tell, the Valentine craft supplies are still being used. Sunday, February 26, 2006.

Tuesday, January 31, 2006. Yesterday was our first Art Class Day with Ariel and Sammy and Simon. We looked at a bunch of artist books I have and then I got out a bunch of supplies and we made books for awhile. I loved it! Scrub the pots and pans). When Dave got home he made cheddar popovers and we drank delicious wine. Oh baby, you know what I like! On Saturday night we had a mini-earthquake in Portland. I felt it and dismissed it but then Emily called seconds later to see if I felt a tremor and sure...

Thursday, June 22, 2006. All she wants is to go with him everywhere. Posted by Mama Muse at 8:38 AM. Wednesday, June 21, 2006. Ten years ago today was the best day of my life. With my heart thumping in my throat, Dave’s huge hand surrounding mine, under a tree in the dappled shade, surrounded by our loving friends and family, I married my best friend. No matter where I am or what I am doing, the memory of our wedding always brings me goosebumps and my eyes fill with sappy happy tears. She doesn’t seem to...
