Speaking of February triumphs, my friend Kristy got married in February, and this is a picture of Elsie and Grandma celebrating. Apparently Elsie gets all serious at celebrations! In fact, she has a very serious side. For a couple of weeks people would smile and say hello to Elsie, at which point she would emphatically [...]

This is Elsie in Saskatchewan one year ago. You might remember my posts about freezing my buns off on the sunny streets of Regina? If not, I refer you to here. Framing Elsie’s head are Simon’s pert biceps. That’s all. I’m off to pour my heart out before strangers. I embrace my vulnerability!

Let’s start this week with some photos. And a theme for the rest of February. Some themes in my life: mothering, auditions, caffeine, cleansing, procrastinating, ‘wanting,’ God…
Soooooo…which one to choose? How about “Cleansing with God and Strong Coffee: An Important Paradox.” That sounds evocative and extremely original. I just came up with that. Right now. [...]

Don’t mind me Mama. I’m a little giddy from all that carrot juice you insisted I ingest. Now would you mind moving? I have some business with your tooth brush and all your expensive makeup brushes. You’re really good at sharing, by the way.
Love love, Elsie.
p.s. Are these breakable?

A blah Thursday needs fancy bits. Here are my fancy bits:
Two very attractive female cops on the beat stopping to get their lunch.
I wonder what they go for in take-out?
Their white plastic take-out bags dangle and I’m curious.
Did they remember the napkins?
The runner in the turquoise spandex.
Her turquoise bum flesh bobbing.
Kind of luscious.
But also strange.
The [...]

Cute things this one did yesterday.
Cute thing #1: backward walking. A skill which hails from her father. Yep. Simon ran home backwards for an entire year when he was in grade seven. That was the year he got a timer for his birthday. To time his backward running naturally. I am so proud.
Cute [...]
