Kiri and I ran off to the grocery store the other night to pick up a couple of items. He was trotting beside me, mumbling off and on about some imaginary adventure in which he was a participant. After a moment or so of staying appropriately near Mommy, he suddenly started jumping away with intense [...]

I went downstairs this morning to grab a snack for the boys. This is the conversation that came over the monitor: Liam: “Kiri K.? I love you!” Kieran: “Me wove you, too, Yee-Yee.” Me (to myself): “How sweet is this???” Liam: “Kiri, I love you more than you love me!” Kiri (rising to the challenge): [...]

A funny little creature ran through my kitchen this morning. He was running as fast as his short little legs would carry him, obviously on an important mission. When hailed, however, he did stop long enough to tell me his name. Allow me to introduce you to… “Mr. Supa-Dupa Big Bwotha Hugging Evil Kieran Monsta!”* [...]
Nursing and Toddlerhood

When I was pregnant with Liam, I knew I would nurse him. At the time I was concerned mostly with getting nursing off to a successful start, and any thoughts I had about the duration on nursing were along the lines of, “I’ll nurse the baby as long as he’s still baby.” And then Liam [...]

“Mommy, I love you to the moon and back. And once around the solar system, and then once around the galaxy, and then to the edge of the universe 4 bazillion times and then back. With a cherry on the top!” Liam told me this on the way to school this morning. In reply, I [...]

Kiri and I were waiting for Liam at school this afternoon. After a couple of minutes he went and collected his good-bye hug from his teacher and headed towards the door. Kieran ran straight into his arms, shrieking, “Yee Yee! Yee Yee!’ He wrapped his arms around Liam and hugged him so tightly that Liam [...]

Icky-Ooky!

Both of the boys have been sick over the weekend. Liam started with stuffiness on Friday during the daytime, and then went on to spend a lot of the night up and coughing from croup. At this point Liam is feeling well enough that he can return to school tomorrow. His poor brother, however, is [...]

The boys and I were playing at the park on one of our warmer days last week. Kiri and I took a break while Liam continued climbing. Kiri bounced on my lap, chatting away about people and activities he saw around the park. After a few minutes, a woman came striding down the path, her [...]
It’s All In Your Perception

The boys and I were outside enjoying a brief respite in the winter cold yesterday. Liam came running at me, roaring, and proclaiming that he was a “ferocious dragon”. He asked me to play along with him by becoming a dragon myself and scaring off some “mean pirates”. Liam: “You know, Mommy, we need some [...]
