Where Love and Chaos Reign. November 15, 2013. This morning, as the twins were getting ready for school, my daughter said, I wish I had a baby sister. One I could hold. Me too, kid. Me too. (Though I’d take a baby brother, too). In the past month or so, J has grown obsessed with babies. Mothering her dolls, making faces at cute babies in the store, interacting with the babies at gymnastics. She notices how cute little ones are, sometimes even before I do. Even after I said, No. We’re done. But 9 months i...

Where Love and Chaos Reign. Daily Archives: February 6, 2014. February 6, 2014. No Time to Sneeze. Yesterday, my friend L asked when I have time to sneeze. Not to mention the emotional side effects of having given up what was left of my fertility only to have my body continue to taunt me month after month. I know I’ve been relatively absent from this particular space. I’m sorry. I’d love it if you could go over to my 365 page. I hope you all are well. Lori, Cliff, Natalie, and Alyssa.

Where Love and Chaos Reign. Daily Archives: November 17, 2013. November 17, 2013. Remember how I talked about filling in the gaps? Link to previous post). Well, some of this is that, and a bigger part of this is finally taking on something years and years in the making. When H and I got together, we moved fairly quickly into family building (or more accurately, trying to build a family). So all of our available funds and time went into that. Technology around digital photography changed rapidly, ...To ma...

Where Love and Chaos Reign. December 31, 2013. My goals for next year? Photograph. As much as possible. And by the end of the year have a portfolio of things I’m proud of. Run To run. Not necessarily for anything other than health and the occasional race. Eat better. Less crap, more real food. Be the best I can be for my family. Yell less, hug more. Savor, even through frustration. Say hurry up less often. Never go to bed without I love you. Finding Enough →. One thought on “ Closing 2013. Join 25 other ...

Where Love and Chaos Reign. September 2, 2014. But after the second half marathon, something was missing. I couldn’t get motivated to run anymore. I chose sleep over early morning runs. Even with the treadmill in the house, running just didn’t excite me the way it used to. That first workout was really hard. I don’t remember what it was, but I remember that it was nothing like I thought, and harder than I ever imagined. But something told me I needed to be there. So even though I could barely...Bruises, ...

First Pitch | Where Love and Chaos Reign

Where Love and Chaos Reign. March 22, 2014. I’ve talked about the friendship between my son and his friend R before. Brothers in baseball N called them. Together for two years, plus a fantastic season of soccer, both our families kept our fingers crossed they’d be together again this year for baseball. N’s first real pitch in a game would be thrown to R. I couldn’t see anything more fitting than that. Great at-bat, R! N yelled after him. I don’t know if R heard it, or really if anyone other than me s...

Where Love and Chaos Reign. Daily Archives: January 5, 2014. January 5, 2014. Today I posted my 51st blog posted on my photography site. H had taken the kids to a birthday party and I got to spend a couple of hours exploring spots to take pictures. It really wasn’t the best time of day for shots, and of course there wasn’t a cloud in the sky, but it was the time I had, and I got a few things I’m pretty proud of. Or the friend who was one of only a handful of people who knew about the ablation and one of ...

Where Love and Chaos Reign. Daily Archives: December 7, 2013. December 7, 2013. 7 months ago, I finally relented and signed J up for gymnastics classes at the gym closest to our house. One night a week, 50 minutes. After a few weeks she attended a birthday party at the gym for a neighbor, and the coach for the party approached me and said J didn’t belong in the beginner class and would I bring J to her intermediate class? When we got home from gymnastics Friday night, she fell apart. She’d done a gre...
