Every February for the past few years, I’ve done a Day in the Life post to see how much changes from year to year. Last year’s post was all about life with a preemie newborn, a toddler, and a preschooler, and although life was chaotic (because life with young kids just is like that), I …
Each year for the past few years, I’ve been doing a “day in the life” post once annually (usually in February). Sometimes it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that our days will “always look like this,” but even from year to year, I’m surprised by how much things change. Last year at …
For the past two Februaries, I have chronicled a day in our life, just to see how much changes from year to year. Last year, I was still pregnant with Mathias at this time, and two years ago I had a two-year-old that still took a long nap in the afternoon and went to bed …

a picture of me right now Time I woke up: 7 A.M. (a little early for me–normally I wake up closer to 8) First thing I did upon waking: said a prayer, then sneaked into the bathroom as quietly as possible so as not to wake up Raven Current weather: snowing (and pretty hard, too) …
Several times in the last few weeks (since I’ve quit teaching, maybe forever), I’ve been asked the following question: “So what do you DO now?
