From the archives: No go in today

Watching my kiddo’s excitement to be back at the pool, I was reminded of his first foray into this same water back in 2011. For a few days in high summer we have access to a pool. Two year old M is drawn to the “deep water” yet refuses to go in. While the grownups […]

Letting go Part I: The Mama room

August 27, 2014 by Ginny.25 Leave a Comment

Tomorrow morning, we’ll go to kindergarten orientation. I remind myself, we’ve been here before.  Here’s my reflection from three years ago.   Here I sit in the Mama room, watching the antics of 9 toddlers and 3 teachers through the two way mirror. Toddler TV, some Mom has dubbed it. My son started pre-preschool last […]

Walking on Air

July 6, 2014 by Ginny.25 Leave a Comment

M is on the changing table – soon to be a thing of the past knock on wood – and puts his squirmy wormy legs up the wall next to him. “Wawk up dere, peese.” states my oddly polite 2 year old. “Walk up the wall?” I confirm his intent. “Peese. Wawk up dere and […]
