It’s been a pretty hard summer for me. I have trouble sometimes remembering just how to do this baby thing. What with the kids being (almost) 14, (almost) 11, 9, and 8… and Risi being 9 months. I feel like a first time mother again, but without all the patience and time I had when […]
Summer Days
I can’t believe we’re already a month into summer break! Wow, I’m sometimes surprised when I manage to survive it. Usually because Var can wear me out like there is no tomorrow. I wont say it’s been easy, but I would like to say that I absolutely love a product I found on Amazon to […]

This Morning
Today is proving to be a difficult day here. I got to bed at 12:15am, was woken up at 2:20 by Var who had gotten sick (thrown up) and then Risi woke up at 2:30. After taking care of Risi’s immediate needs until 3:05 I went and checked on Var, thinking surely Risi would get […]
