My Rocking Cradle

Bedtime reading… Little Dynamo chose MY book instead of his own book. He insisted that I read out loud… he heard the word “married”…   Little Dynamo: Just like you and Daddy got married? Me: Yes, that’s right. Little Dynamo: Just like Teacher Cecille? (his teacher is getting married this Sunday) Me: Yes. Little Dynamo: [...]

I headed off to the parlor last December 6. That was exactly a week ago, 6 days after I gave birth. I brought along two books, prepared to sit down in front of the mirror for 4-5 hours for my hair rebond. You see, my hair had an hiatus during my pregnancy. I love doing something new [...]

Little Dynamo was born on the first day of November in 2006. This year, we ended November just right! Our Baby Dynamo was born at 8:36am on the last Day of November at 38 weeks and 2 days.   Perfect!
