Two Down, One To Go | The Other Side of the Rainbow
https://othersideoftherainbow.wordpress.com/2011/09/22/two-down-one-to-go
The Other Side of the Rainbow. We're definitely not in Kansas anymore: Finding the way home after raising kids. Two Down, One To Go. September 22, 2011. Well, over the last couple of weeks, we’ve said our goodbyes to the oldest and the youngest. It’s been eventful, emotional, exciting and confusing. Thank God for Skype, texting, Facebook and a fairly reasonably priced cell phone plan! The contact is not as frequent as I had feared, but just enough to feel connected. So, how am I doing? Awww i love you, b!

New Year, New Beginning | The Other Side of the Rainbow
https://othersideoftherainbow.wordpress.com/2011/10/03/new-year-new-beginning
The Other Side of the Rainbow. We're definitely not in Kansas anymore: Finding the way home after raising kids. New Year, New Beginning. October 3, 2011. So, it’s official, my nest is empty…for now. I feel numb, shaky, scared, excited. It’s a new chapter for us, but it’s also strangely familiar. A reminder of our early days before kids, but now we’re really not just two. Our family is now five souls living life on this earth separately but together. So, what have I learned from this visit to my past?

Almost Ready for Launch | The Other Side of the Rainbow
https://othersideoftherainbow.wordpress.com/2011/08/25/almost-ready-for-launch
The Other Side of the Rainbow. We're definitely not in Kansas anymore: Finding the way home after raising kids. Almost Ready for Launch. August 25, 2011. I’m taking a break from the chaos going on around me right now. This week it feels as if my higher power (or whatever) is testing me. Most of my instincts lately have me wanting to spend lots of time with my son, hug him whenever he lets me and “talk about our feelings.” I have however, been reining myself in…a lot! Another Year Older…. Post was not sen...

And the Beat goes on… | The Other Side of the Rainbow

The Other Side of the Rainbow. We're definitely not in Kansas anymore: Finding the way home after raising kids. And the Beat goes on…. December 2, 2011. I think I know when it started. A couple of weeks ago, we were in New York City following my nephew’s Bar Mitzvah. We took my son to the Port Authority Bus Station so he could catch the Greyhound back to DC. I waited with him in line to get his ticket and we chatted about the weekend’s events. The terminal was amazing! So, what’s next? I have no idea....

The Other Side of the Rainbow. We're definitely not in Kansas anymore: Finding the way home after raising kids. Archive for November, 2011. Me and My Bike…Hate it, Love it! We loaded them into the car and headed home to take these beauties for a spin. Once we were at home, we suited up and climbed on our bikes to try them out in our neighborhood. I clipped my feet into the pedals and away we went. Oh, did I mention we live in the hills? I think I love my bike now. It’s helped me learn something...Follow ...

The Other Side of the Rainbow. We're definitely not in Kansas anymore: Finding the way home after raising kids. Archive for October, 2011. There’s No Place Like Home…wherever that is. So the seasons are changing again. Leaves are turning color and starting to fall from the trees. The air is crisper. It’s really a beautiful time of year here. The last several days we’ve been observing (sort of) the holiday of Sukkot. We entertained two couples for dinner and it was lovely! All my life I lived in the same ...

Another Year Older… | The Other Side of the Rainbow
https://othersideoftherainbow.wordpress.com/2011/08/10/another-year-older
The Other Side of the Rainbow. We're definitely not in Kansas anymore: Finding the way home after raising kids. Another Year Older…. August 10, 2011. But this year, it was perfect! I told my husband last Thanksgiving, while we were in New York City with my brother and his family, that for my birthday I wanted to spend the whole weekend there. And, we planned it together, and it was magical! So, why was this year different? Less than perfect doesn’t mean “less than”. Human beings are...I don’t know ...
