Blossoms in an old Purex bottle on my Mom’s windowsill Spring has Sprung Usually I’m looking for it. Anxiously waiting. Peering out into the pouring rain, begging for mercy. Vowing to move away from this Godforsaken place once and for all. Then, after much anticipation, Spring arrives, bringing the promise of the most beautiful weather in […]
Ode to Spring
Levi called me up and said Emilio was bringing us a big apple tree. My heart pitter-pattered until I realized it wasn’t for me, it was for the deer. I’m still happy, I can’t wait until the lone apple tree blooms.
A good night. Carter & Violet playing on the windowsill in their pajamas on sauna night. Up until now they clobbered each other. and… Levi talked Becka into making 100 pasties for us. A good night, indeed.

I snapped some photos to document a typical morning at Windy Ridge. Another unexpected sunny day. The parakeets are cheerfully chirping, Hazel is demanding attention and Violet just told me her diaper was stuck in her cheek butt.
Kelly & cousin Dalton from Wisconsin came to visit Sunday so we had good reason to get everyone together. Everywhere I looked there were cousins & friends playing, strolling, visiting & conspiring(not too mention wrestling and bloody noses). The women sat in the kitchen sharing birth stories, advice and how we dread the day our […]
