Sharing the journey that has taken me from being a single girl in the advertising agency world to a married mommy running my own freelance writing and consulting business (and every random adventure in between).
THINGS I LOVE: Thunderstorms, power ballads, princess camping, exploring new cities, Jon Stewart, greatest hits CDs, clever ads, packing for a trip, George Clooney, impractical footwear, movies about spies, Starbucks, reading an entire book in one sitting, a house full of friends, movies about spies, buying presents, a perfect French manicure, warm modernist architecture, getting flowers for no reason, being faux brunette, Mary Poppins, making lists on Post-It notes, decorating for Christmas, having a brilliant middle-of-the-night 'aha!' idea and then actually remembering it in the morning / THINGS I HATE: People who whine, wearing sweats in public, 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner, birds, American tourists in foreign countries, taking down the Christmas tree, poems that rhyme, the misuse of semicolons, being lied to, unpacking after a trip, being closed-minded, naming your kid something common but then spelling it stupidly, cowboys, overly cautious drivers, fake curse words, ridiculously long surnames, strangers who start awkward conversations with you in places you can't readily escape

With tears:)
When I took Geoff first to nursery school, the teacher assured me that he stopped crying as soon as I was out of sight.
I totally hear ya. I put off Palmer's 1st haircut for WAY too long, but then when I got his lock of hair to remember when he was making that leap into a different time of life it became one of my most precious possessions. Hoping it goes well for you and B!
I bawled my eyes out on Sarah's first day of Kindergarten. But it was a good kind of crying :)
btw I went private on my blog so if you're interested just let me know your email address. If you're not interested, that's ok too. No pressure.

Scarlett's first haircut was just the back - she had a weird rat tail thing going on. I think it was a nice way to ease into this big girl nonsense.
But seeing her in pigtails sitting on her potty?? Not sure I'm ready for this toddler business (then again, I wasn't ready for the baby stuff and we made it through!).
