As per the latest comment on my last post, (Ann), I hereby wish to make it known that any and all extended blog absences may henceforth be blamed on the above brown eyes.

At least, I think they’re brown.

Pardon me while I go check them again.

Swooning in love (and perhaps fatigue),

    It never ceases to amaze me how much newborns change and grow in the first few months. You'll miss it if you blog too much!

    I think they're blue. And when they're not all fusty and difficult to interpret aren't they priceless? A little old man came up to me the other day and said about my two month old, "I bet I know what her name is. Sweet as Sugar?" So funny.

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♄
