  1. Cracking me up.

    Wednesday, September 18, 2013

    Lately Cyan has been sooooo talkative. He tells me all about his day and remembers things that happened in the past. :). He keeps asking me if I remember when Aunt Sissy popped that green one? Referring to when she popped a green ballon at Mikey and Brittany's baby shower.. Too funny!  Also he's been talking about about school and his friends.  Apparently Carter is his favorite best friend and Bryce is not his friend.  Alex bit him on the head and Grace (Gracie poo) is his favorite too. :) My baby. The other day when leaving school a little girl yelled across the parking lot bye Cyan!!  Sure made me smile. 



  2. It's not quite time..

    M: Cyan why are you poo-pooing in your diaper? Lets go use the potty and you can get 2 stickers!! 
    C: No.. I don't want to. 
    M: Mommy is sad you used to go poo-poo on the potty.
    C: it's ok, I not ready yet.
    M: You're not ready to be a big boy yet? Do you still want to be a baby for a little while longer?
    C: Yea

    All I could do was tear up and give him a hug.. He'll grow up when it's time. 



  3. M: my tummy hurts really bad..
    C: is ok is ok I gonna hold you so much til you all better. 
    M: You're gonna take care of Mommy?
    C: yea, until you feel better soon.

    C: (looks down at his belly button) oh!! das a egg in my bwelly button. 

    He did indeed have an egg crumb in his belly button.. 

    Ha. Toddler life.

  5. Your children are not your children.

    Friday, July 19, 2013





    Your children are not your children,
    they are the sons and daughters of life's longing for itself.

    They come through you but not from you.
    And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

    You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
    for they have their own thoughts.

    You may house their bodies but not their soul,
    for their soul belongs in the house of tomorrow,
    which you cannot visit not even in your dreams.

    You may strive to be like them but seek not to make them like you.
    For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

    You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth. The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite and he bends you with his might that his arrows may go swift and far.

    Let your bending in the Archer's hand be for gladness,
    for even as he loves the arrow that flies,
    so he loves also the bow that is stable.

    - Kahlil Gibran (1884-1931)

  6. Sugar-laden goodness.

    Monday, July 8, 2013


    June 24, 2013 - Cyan enjoys his first real snowball (I opted for the clear, coconut) and it proved to be quite a delight.  He refers to them as snowmen and sometimes asks me.. Momma, want a snowman? Ha.

  7. Oh and..

    Sunday, July 7, 2013

    Cyan pooped on the potty again tonight. Progress!


  8. Tent = Cool

    I walked into Cyan's room June 23, 2013 and saw him tucked behind the curtain thats actually a blanket tacked to the wall.. Tacky .. playing his laptop.  I knew it was time to build an actual tent for him.  Thanks to Aunt Becca for giving him a great tent building kit for his birthday, equipped with sheets, flashlights, a water bottle, clothes pins, rope and all the goodness one needs to fulfill his/her tentmaking desires!

  9. Pretty much what creative minds do for fun.  At least he protected his eyes. :)  I can't express how much I love this child for being who he is...  I vow never to change the way I choose to parent him for fear that I'd lose out on this raw personality by confining him to structure that I don't believe benefits.  AP all the way!
