I, Lash(ley): Our True Nature(s)
http://ilashley.blogspot.com/2015/03/our-true-natures.html
Friday, March 27, 2015. I pinned the image below months ago (when Cyrus was 8 weeks old! These days, I think about it all the time. When I start to get frustrated with his much. It can be hard for me to get motivated to make it happen, especially since those things are so contrary to my true nature, but it is always always worth it. What tools have you come across that have helped you learn more about yourself and those close to you (children or otherwise) in a practical way? I love the post!

I, Lash(ley): A Day in Our Life // Or, What I Expected When I Was Expecting
http://ilashley.blogspot.com/2015/03/a-day-in-our-life-or-what-i-expected.html
Monday, March 9, 2015. A Day in Our Life / Or, What I Expected When I Was Expecting. Deep snuggles and hard, luminous, giggly eye contact. Maddening monotony, a sneaking suspicion that you will be bored of me long before I cease to be fascinated with you. When I imagined putting my career on hold to spend my days with you, I knew and I so did not know. Photo by Natalie Roth. Your papa owns two coffee shops. His creative, entrepreneurial spirit (and that beard, hello) has had him in. Photo by Ross Evertson.

I, Lash(ley): Cyrus Henri // 2 Months
http://ilashley.blogspot.com/2014/08/cyrus-henri-2-months.html
Monday, August 11, 2014. Cyrus Henri / 2 Months. Holy two months, batman! I can’t believe you’ve been here with us for two months already. It’s been a blur. I had planned to write or commemorate every month, but, again, blur. For history’s sake, let’s recap. There was your 45 hour birth, which I’ll save for another post, then 6 hours later, we zombied ourselves home and went to bed. We cuddled and stared and skin-to-skinned and nuzzled your sweet face. We visited the midwives. And setting up an appointme...

I, Lash(ley): A Song
http://ilashley.blogspot.com/2013/02/a-song.html
Friday, February 15, 2013. Oh, Ana ï. S, you write folk operas based on Greek myths and set 19th Century ballads to new music, but I'm partial to this oldie. Summer went the way of spring. Winter's waiting in the wings. And we haven't saved anything. Cause we already paid the rent. There's still some money we haven't spent. Go put on something different. We're going out tonight. I have loved you for so long. Even when I could only do you wrong. Go see if they have our song. On the jukebox over there.

I, Lash(ley): We both wore glasses. I guess we still do.

Sunday, August 11, 2013. We both wore glasses. I guess we still do. Have you seen this Missed Connection? It's been open in my browser for days. It's intriguing and haunting and magnetic. I can't bring myself to close the tab. CL took the post down! I saw you on the Manhattan-bound Brooklyn Q train. I was wearing a blue-striped t-shirt and a pair of maroon pants. You were wearing a vintage red skirt and a smart white blouse. We both wore glasses. I guess we still do. My stop was Union Square, but at Unio...

I, Lash(ley): Happy Hallmark Cha-Ching Day!
http://ilashley.blogspot.com/2013/02/happy-hallmark-cha-ching-day.html
Thursday, February 14, 2013. Happy Hallmark Cha-Ching Day! My mom told me that one Valentine's Day, in college, my dad and his friends ran around campus spray painting some variation of "Happy VD! On things. If you know anything about my dad, this is surprising. Geez, Michael, a little respect for the made up holiday, please. In other news, a poem. Very fine is my valentine. Very fine and very mine. Very mine is my valentine very mine and very fine. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). You Are My Fave.

I, Lash(ley): Cyrus Henri // Birth Story
http://ilashley.blogspot.com/2014/11/cyrus-henri-birth-story.html
Thursday, November 20, 2014. Cyrus Henri / Birth Story. This is a long post, but with good reason. I decided to stop seeing clients at work when I was 39 weeks pregnant, one week before my due date, as driving to see my clients, then interacting meaningfully with them - keeping up with them at home and school, getting up and down from the floor, and not getting too distracted by the squirmy starfish baby sitting on my bladder - was getting tougher. We had planned to head to the ‘burbs for coffee. Gina wa...
