  2. I've followed your blog for a while now, so I thought it was time to come out of the shadows and tell you that you are VERY inspirational, and I hope that I'm doing as good as you are at the single mothering thing. It's rough, but I'm trying. I use your blog to help lift me up when times get tough and I just don't feel like I can handle it without pulling my hair out… So thank you!! Truly!!

  4. I love sleepy babies! We too are experiencing the first signs of toddlerhood…not a word I know, but what else conjures images of missing things floating in a toilet bowl? Also congrats on the restaurant that's great!

  6. Gosh- Marlowe looks so much like Ocean to me. Looking at this stirs me up a bit because it brings back memories of Ocean being this age.

    Beautiful little babe.
