and eleanor and chris pass the [...]
Things I know right now:
1. I am a stronger, more solid and healthy person today than I have ever been in my whole entire, live-long life.
2. I love who I am, who my kids are, and the places we have been together over the last few years. It has been hard, but seeing the outcome [...]

is a favorite book of mine. i was reading it tonight, at Eleanor’s urging, to my kids before they went to bed. At one point, the narrator remarks that she is listening for the sound of the butterfly amidst the chaos of the city, but it is hard to hear b/c everything is so ‘loud’ [...]

Kamoi and i got married last night. We eloped due to some very untidy ‘circumstances’, if you will. I know how much you loved her, ‘da babes. I never wanted to hurt you. Things just happened and then other things happened and suddenly we were in love, but you still loved her. She moved away [...]

So last night E and B came back from Aaron’s house. As you all know we do the week on, week off thing. I think it works best for E and B because it is very structured…they know that it is either ‘mom’s week’, or ‘dad’s week’ but they still have adjustment issues [...]

I was thinking about Jes and KT (yes, again) because they called and we talked for a long time…and it was good and happy and also sad. But, I remembered this IG song I love, The Wood Song, and it reminded me of all that has changed in the last few years and how [...]

This is the last picture of our Dana as Mrs. Lee…
A very big door closed for her yesterday. But, as she is so apt to tell me: when a door is closed, another is opened. So, Dana, here’s to a very large and beautiful open door for you, just around the bend.
Broken

So I was thinking about life today and how we make it what it is and how we can take experiences that are completely debilitating and turn them into something amazing; the ultimate learning experience if you will. I was also listening to the lyrics to ‘All the Way Down’ from the incredible movie, [...]
