I saw a post on another bloggers blog the other day, who saw it on another bloggers blog………well, you get the gist…. it was a dear _______ post, and I loved it….. little anonymous letters to get the words off your heart.  I loved the idea, I loved that it would take me out of toddlerland to blog

so here we go…………..

Dear babies (of the under 5 range) of mine,

Please be kind and stop destroying everything you touch.  Yes you are wonderful and creative but you are destroying my house and I can’t keep up.  Id like to sew instead of breaking up fights.  Can we try it please for just one day?  Really, the cup drawer is clean………..stop dumping it out.

I love you……..

Dear B,

Dear J,

6 years…………. the drive was easier than the life…….. Im listening to metropolis……….. my gosh.  Wasn’t it just april at the cabin?…. forgiving is better than forgetting right?  Please build the shelves, it will mean the world to me.

I am still trying to remember why we are here and try to forget all the reasons we didn’t go back.  Thank you for the 3 in 33………….

“devote yourself to an idea, go make it happen, struggle on it.  Overcome your fears, smile, don’t you forget…………. this is your dream.  ”
