I guess I’m a lot of things: a wife, a mom, a daughter, a sister, a crafter, a cook, a reader, a writer, a homemaker, a pianist, and probably a lot more too. But at the end of the day, I’m just a Christian trying to find and obey God’s will.
There are moments when you’re a mom. Some moments are pinch-me-am-I-dreaming moments of sitting in the sun with a sweet-smelling infant, breathing in lilac blossoms. Ahh.
And then there are the other moments.
We’ve had several of those in the last 18 hours:
– In the middle of changing Jameson yesterday afternoon, Ryan called. Determined to devote [...]
Who could have known that behind this cautious face…
…was this adorable personality?
sigh
I love him.
i put up some pictures from Julia’s birthday celebration.
Parking at the “Clarkson Inn parking lot,” (which is not the Clarkson Inn parking lot at all, but nonetheless, is what we all call it.) This time, instead of pulling into the first available freebie, I opted for the pricey shaded spots. I have a baby now, you know.
Strolling past the theater, which I realize [...]
:: It’s really very silly that I feel so incredibly productive this morning. All I’ve done is make phone calls and return some emails — but since that is the stuff that I dread, I always feel pretty pleased with myself when I can check such to-dos off of my list. Silly me.
:: Jameson’s favorite [...]
:: Life in the North Country: three nights ago, I tossed and turned and barely slept because of how unbearably hot it was. This morning, I’ve given in and turned on the heat. Heat?! It’s June 6th, for crying out loud!
:: Progress: two days ago, Jameson was figuring out how to push up onto his [...]
Yup, my name is Danica. Like the race car driver, whose name I know, but whose career I know nothing about. A Nascar fan I am not. Things like reading, playing piano, gardening, cooking, sewing, writing, and keeping my bathroom bleached are more up my alley. Read more »My maiden name is Sinclair (not Patrick), and I come from good stock. (So says my husband, anyway!) I'm the oldest of 9 kids--and my parents are neither insane, uninformed, or Catholic. They're actually the best parents you could ask for. Seriously. (And, consequently, I think pretty highly of my siblings, too, whose blogs you can access from the links below.) I've joined a new clan, though, and my husband and I have been "leaving-and-cleaving" for 2 years and counting. We have a son who you'll read much (too much?) about. Oh. And there are pictures of him, too--hundreds of them--should you care to click on over to my flickr account. I'm a stay at home mom who is redefining that title--I literally stay at home as much as I possibly can. I love to be home! Home, by the way, is in Northern California, although my roots are in a lil' ol' town in Northern New York. Lastly, I take all blame for any ridiculous, outlandish, illogical posts. Anything worth commenting on or linking to is due to my husband's encouragement. In the spirit of the Little engine That Could, "He thinks I can, He thinks I can, He thinks I can,...", and sometimes, that's all a wife needs.
