The Incident
Posted on November 28, 2011 by goo goo dadda
It’s been awhile since I posted here. More on that in another post entitled ‘Summer Happened’. It’s been a nice hiatus but now it’s good to be back writing… It happened on a Monday. During P.E. The “Incident”. Up to now, in her brief 6 years on this planet, Maddie has cruised through life incident-free. [...]

Reflections On Time: Part II
Posted on May 15, 2011 by goo goo dadda
I am amazed that anyone who calls themselves a PARENT has the time to read this blog right now. In fact, I can’t even believe I had a free moment to sit down and write it. And I am really astounded that any parent could publish a column, or a book, or do ANYTHING that [...]

It’s Official – Spring Is Here!
Posted on April 18, 2011 by goo goo dadda
Aaaaah, springtime! It’s finally here! And how do I know this, you might ask? How do I really know? Did a bluejay happily alight upon my shoulder, whistling a tune from Song of the South? Or perhaps Maddie being home for Spring Break this week is enough reason to give one pause? Maybe I can [...]

Maddie & Juliet: The Movie
Posted on April 14, 2011 by goo goo dadda
I’ve been having way too much fun with the “movie trailer” feature in iMovie lately. They make it SO easy! You can choose from an array of themes, plug in your own text and video clips, and voila! I made this one in under 20 minutes. Enjoy!

Just Another Successful Parenting Mission
Posted on March 3, 2011 by goo goo dadda
Juliet was tired. I think. And she was still nursing a cold. It was just the two of us, lounging around the house on a rainy day. Maddie was at school, due to be picked up in 45 minutes. I began to strategize my next mission. As any parent, cook or professional jewel thief will [...]

Baa Baa Black Sheep
Posted on February 9, 2011 by goo goo dadda
Unbeknownst to her, my sister has played an ENORMOUS part in the raising of our daughters. Even though my younger sibling lives a mere two states away, she is here, every day, almost every hour, in the parenting choices I make for Maddie. Or, in this case, the parenting choices I DON’T MAKE. Now I [...]

Posted on January 24, 2011 by goo goo dadda

This all started as a way to practice writing, to hopefully improve, and to experiment with different themes and styles. [...]
