Dear Internet, Yes, I did tell you that the Little Letter link up would be last Friday and, yes, I did forget. But I'm here now, so all is forgiven, right? Dear Banana Bread, You were delicious. I had been staring at over-ripened bananas for days, so when Polly and I found ourselves with some free time on Tuesday morning, we found this recipe on Pinterest and got started. The bread was amazing and Polly loved dipping her spoon in the bowl of squishy bananas. Dear Feeding Littles, I only recently found your website and I think I'm in love. Of course, I missed your sale yesterday, but that probably won't ...

Dear 2019, I wasn't ready for your arrival. I'm not ready for it to be the year after Polly was born -- that's moving a little too fast for my taste. The good news is, I'm a glutton for fresh starts and everything about you feels shiny and new. Dear Pollywog, You are growing up so fast! We just started using the bumbo seat and high chair in the last few weeks and it's a nice change of pace for us all. You still prefer being snuggled or worn in the sling, but the highchair is proving to be the easiest way to cook dinner. Dear Marie Kondo, I had no idea you had a new series on Netflix, but I managed to binge ...
Little Letters | August 2018
Dear Friday, I am so happy to see you. Every week feels like an eternity, at this point, and I feel like last weekend was forever ago. I only have twelve more days to report to the office and I'm marking them off with a big X, every chance I get. Dear Anniversary, It's crazy to think that I've been married for sixteen years. SIXTEEN YEARS?! We were such babies then and while so many things have changed, so many things are exactly the same. Dear Blog Friends, Did you even notice that I pressed publish five times this week? It's been a really long time since I managed to share a post with you every single day. It might not happen again for awhile, so I really hope you enjoyed it. Dear Ella, You were such a champ this week. I know that transitioning to a new school and learning ...

Dear Beach Vacation, We've been home for almost three whole weeks and I'm still missing you like crazy. Thankfully we're spending the weekend in the sand again right now, but it just isn't the same without our camper. Dear 2019 Vacations, I know it's only July, but I am so glad to have you booked and on the calendar already. A week on the lake for Spring Break, two weeks at the beach for Summer Vacation -- let's see what else we can plan before the year rolls over. Dear Maternity Leave, Why are you still eight weeks away? Dear Baby, I am so thankful for every move, hiccup, and twitch. I know that all ...

Dear June, We're only eight days in and you are already bursting at the seams. You are, by far, my favorite month of the year and I'm glad that we can slooooow down after this weekend. Dear Camping Adventure, I am so thankful that you are only two days away! I'm thankful that I get to enjoy all fifteen days of you, that our camper is adorable and fully packed, that the girls are beside themselves about heading south and that we have a list of yummy restaurants to visit very soon. Dear Bathing Suits, Why are you so difficult? Admittedly, I didn't anticipate being pregnant this summer, and I thought I'd ...

Dear 13th Week, I am so glad you are here. We are exactly four days away from the second trimester and, although it's hard to believe we're a third of the way through this gig, I am hoping you bring all the good things. Dear Starbucks Café Mocha, You have no idea how much I missed and how delicious you tasted (twice!). I still can't drink coffee first thing in the morning -- I have to throw up first -- but enjoying a venti coffee on my way to work has been such a guilty pleasure. Dear 30* Morning, What in the world?! We have been enjoying lovely spring weather and I was not prepared to dig out sweaters ...

Dear Scout, I'm not even kidding when I tell you that you surprised the heck out of my last week. This is exactly why moms write notes tied to little elves in the top of Christmas boxes -- BECAUSE THEY FORGET WHERE THE ELF LIVES DURING THE OFF SEASON. Dear Elf on the Shelf, Moms around the world are sharing all the reasons why they hate you: you're too much trouble, you make a mess, you don't love Jesus. Meanwhile, I'm over here loving how sweet my girls are in the morning, how quickly they get out of bed, and how well behaved they are. Thank you. Dear Christmas Decorations, You are forever my favorite. ...

Dear Taz + Belly, I promise I'm back. I have no idea why I haven't wanted to blog (or come out of hibernation for anything other than a good book) for the last month, but I worked on a content calendar this week and I'm spending my Saturday taking photos and getting posts ready for October and November. Dear Small Group, I love you so much more than I expected. Making new friends as an adult is hard, but so rewarding. Dear Beartown, You were so good. SO. GOOD. Who would have thought I would love a book about hockey and rape culture?! Five stars all the way. Dear The Office, Why did it ...
