Ravin's Ramblings: April 2010
http://ravinsramblings.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Live to Fight Another Day or Melissa vs. The Cedar Shrubs. It’s been a hell of a week. It started out with torrential down pours spoiling my yard work plans, then getting puked on by my two-year-old, followed by several days of cleaning up what said two-year-old has named “sphincter soup”. The cats are on a litter box protest because through a completely random incident involving Red Box and a movie I STILL haven’t returned, my husband went to VA for the week with my ATM card. And I looked at my cedar &#...

Abby pushed a stray lock of thick black hair behind her ear. The rest stayed securely in its pony tail. She looked out of almond shaped eyes from under a heavy fringe of bangs at the place she would call home for the next four weeks. The Zoeng Wing of Luna City had a pleasant mezzanine gallery from which to view two of the other six wings of the complex and the entire southern expanse of Maria Tranquillitas. Well, at least Zoeng Corporation’s version of them. Look clumsy and overbearing by comparison.

Life these days is a constant state of negotiations. Zander is definitely pushing his boundaries and asserting his independence. I try so hard to be one of those mothers that can focus their child and teach them the letters and how to scribble their name, but the reality is he has no time to sit still for me. He has using the potty for #1 down but he's still not convinced about #2.he'll do it right AFTER he's sat on the potty! Even more distressing, I have to bear wrestle him to the ground and then sit o...

Ravin's Ramblings: Dream a Little Dream
http://ravinsramblings.blogspot.com/2010/10/dream-little-dream.html
Dream a Little Dream. Had an amazing dream Friday afternoon after I got off the phone with Rick Amato. I dreamed that there were two women, an older one and a younger one, there was a mother/daughter type of relationship between them though I don’t know if they were really mother and daughter. They had been living with two bad men, trapped with them, unable to get them out of their lives. Finally the police arrested them and the women were overjoyed because they were free of the men at last. I was surpri...

A Well Adjusted Child. Hurray, he's well adjusted! It is always the way; words will answer as long as it is only a person's neighbor who is in trouble, but when that person gets into trouble himself, it is time that the King rise up and do something. Personal Reflections of Joan of Arc. A Well Adjusted Child. Hey, I just reactivated my account. It only took me five years! Where I’m at. Movies: An Honest Liar. How I use the iPad. People still ask me ‘Do you actually use that thing for anything?

Ravin's Ramblings: Today I am Three, Tomorrow I will be Catholic
http://ravinsramblings.blogspot.com/2011/05/today-i-am-three-tomorrow-i-will-be.html
Today I am Three, Tomorrow I will be Catholic. I was in the backyard pushing Zander on the swing while Chris was doing Chris things with a hatchet and trees. I start talking to Chris when I hear a very stern voice. Church is about to start! Some time passes when I answer a question from Chris. The guy gonna get up there and start talkin'! You don't talk when he talks! Some more time passes and again, Chris and I attempt to talk. Its time to sing now! You repeat after me! This is a very important song!

Three Where did that come from? When did we get here, kid? When did you go from being my sweet little baby to my sweet little boy? Part of me gasps with relief…The rest of me wants to hold on to you with everything in me and say “Stop! Don’t grow up quite so fast! But growing up you are. You went from knowing words to telling me stories and singing me songs. You amaze me every single day. You are so funny! You tell jokes now too. Sometimes they’re incredibly inappropriate, yet you still crack me up.
