Today’s the big day! She says, “I’m flee! That means I’m tall!” Noah gave her the first present: a giga pet he picked out “that means I’m big like a Noah.” Brett gets off work early (forever — it’s his last day) so we’re going to celebrate over lunch with more presents and cake!
More Madison birthday news will surely filter in as the day goes on but now I must go make waffles!
I have two kids and a delightfully odd husband, Brett. My children are Noah (born to us in 1997) and Madison (born to her first mom, Pennie, in 2004 and brought to our family through a domestic, open adoption). They are my inspiration and also the reason I don't get more done around here.
I'm a writer and sometimes I get published, which is a nice thing. I write for joy, I write for money and when I'm very lucky, both things happen at the same time. My work appears in national publications including Yoga Journal, Disney's Family.com, Utne, Wondertime, Brain Child and Salon. Currently I am working on a book about my daughter's adoption and seeking representation for the proposal. I also own Smart Cookie Communications with my husband.

Wow, I remember checking this site frantically for updates on her arrival. I can’t believe that was three years ago!
