The beginning of the end of this December whirlwind trip found us at Fenway en route to BU, my old stomping grounds. For that whole Freshman year I lived right down the street from the “Green Monster” so it was fun to show the girls. …with their “fake” Red Sox hats. Ha! Then it was…
One of my favorite parts of Boston, Trinity Church and the John Hancock Tower.
Back near the beginning of December, Grace, Claire and I took a crazy plunge and snuck off to Boston to visit my sister and her family. You see, years ago as we were packing up our life in D.C. (where our first three children were born), I vowed that even though we were leaving to…
Speaking of good doctors (in the post before last), I never wrote about the Bardet-Biedl conference we went to back in June. And that’s no good, because it was really an amazing conference (thanks to my sweet friend Mary and her helpers along with some outstanding doctors). After our family trip to Washington D.C., I…

Warning: this is a little bit blubbery. Oh man alive, this last week of school business is not for the weak of heart I tell you! The hubbub of May is always tricky, are you with me fellow mothers? For me this year is such a strange mix of nostalgia and worry. Things are heightened…
Fall break was two weeks long, so we smooshed a lot into that thing! One thing I haven’t mentioned yet that I loved was the Restore Conference. It was the best conference to facilitate belonging. This is a conference some friends attended and loved last year, and I felt drawn to it. So to be…
