A blog on living, giving birth and mothering abroad! Shorts and other Stories in progress. It is 12 noon. March 23, 2010. It is 12 noon. I’ve been awake for 8 hours. I’ve been out of bed for 6 hours. Queenie fell asleep on the stroller on the way back from the grocery store, something she never does. She was that tired. And who could blame her? When I got up for good she was out of bed and she told me, “. Papa, a nigh-nigh. Bu nena, e bitu. Do you think she understood? Oh, sure. absolutely! I’m ver...

This had better be quick. They're gonna find me soon. Open Letter to the Friend Who Quit. I know you won’t read this, but I wish you would. You were quite brave to tell me that I’m too much for you.

And though you severed ties several months ago, made it clear that you wanted nothing to do with me, I miss you. I love you. And I’m so mad and hurt and bitter. Because I love you. And tagged broken heart. It is reall...
