All is delightful in my world today – had a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving. Every year, Jessica and I (and now Julianna) head down to my mother’s house on Wednesday. We get up at the crack of dawn and make stuffing and get the turkey in the oven bright and early. It was a smaller crowd than …

Sam, after having shared a bedroom (and a bed) with …

Okay – I don’t really like moving
I’m sitting here, completely barricaded by boxes. They’re piled up all over the place, packed, unpacked, my table is covered with dishes yet to be packed. All around me, I see stuff I need to pack. And/or throw away. I’ve got a lot of junk. I mean, I guess most people do, but it seems …
