returning home

The visit was just awesome.
Holy smoke-and-fire, these birthparents are incredible.
We went to her OB appointment and chatted in a comfortable room while we waited. (I think I mentioned before that this doctor is a big adoption advocate, so when he saw us there he ushered us all into a nice room so we could talk.) [...]
well, hello there…

Remember when it was so reassuring when I found the little pearl in my oyster last time we came down?
We had another little token, a little charm. When Daddy J and I pulled into the hotel parking lot and got out of the car, he leaned down and picked up a little dachshund charm.
Which is [...]
meeting the birthparents part deux
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged adoption on December 29, 2008 | 5 Comments »
Tomorrow we go and and have our second meeting with the potential birthparents.
Whew.
Obviously, I’m totally preoccupied with whether the birthmom will change her mind and decide to parent, and thinking that the things I say and the way I look to her are really, really important as far as reassuring her goes.
And have probably been [...]
Honesty is…

The following is the result of a Mama Jamz assignment given to the Fishmaster. I made no corrections (except his misspellings of ’radiance’ and ‘treads.’)
You can see hints of the reading he’s been doing at school (they just finished The Count of Monte Cristo and have been studying the Bible some.) I love the coyote/lamb [...]
sicky and whiny

Yeah. I haven’t been sick in awhile, and it is NO FUN.
Daddy J took the boys to his mother’s today and left me at home alone (sigh) to recuperate. Bummer. Grandma L is an awesome cook. I also missed a Christmas dinner at my mother’s yesterday. (Stupid cold.)
Anyhoo, I’m about to take some Alka-Seltzer [...]
Birth verses

So, I came across a mention of a site that has matched your birthdate with a bible verse, and was all, huh. Like, kudos to them for this great marketing idea in the Christian world – think of all the magnets, plaques, t-shirts and whatnot they could sell with birth verses on them!
I think how [...]
perfect Sunday morning

Daddy J is off with his cousin to see a football game in Houston, the Fishmaster is with Grandma MJ, and it’s Rockinrolla and I minding the fort.
He is such a delight. Just a sweetie-pie in every way. I don’t think I was anywhere near that enjoyable when I was eleven. We had spaghetti and [...]
recycled post: Christmas crafting
Posted in Uncategorized on December 13, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
This is how lazy I am – I’m recycling a post from the old blog to describe the craft of the day.
(Oh, is that what they’re calling it now, when you were out til midnight watching Daddy J’s band perform and are having trouble stringing thoughts together this morning: “lazy”?)
Anyway. This is my favorite [...]
counting the days

Not ’til Christmas, exactly, but ’til the boys get out of school for Christmas break. I’m bored and tired and this big ol’ house is awfully quiet.
****sigh****
Pathetic, I know.
I think I can kind of blame the domperidone I’m taking so that I can breastfeed Rainbow. Apparently it can make one sleepy. Also, wet and cold weather [...]
