Mother's Day

Ruth Ann Caponi 1942-2005

“Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.” Eskimo proverb quote.

13 Years Ago - April 1, 1995

13 years ago we became one.

Happy Anniversary My Love.

Snow Day

We hand another snow day here today. Lots of ice on the ground and cold! Today we did this, an idea I remembered from an old Martha Stewart Kids magazine (how I miss it so!).


Claudia's Pea


James' Killer Pumpkin


Stella's Penguin

The kids love them!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Yeah, great gag.

4 Years Ago

Four years ago, my sweet baby arrived.




Now, she is 4.
Happy Birthday StellaDella!

Snow

We got snow! About 8 inches worth. The two older kids were already off school because of teacher's conferences (now canceled) and Stella Della's school was canceled as well. Dentist appointments, scheduled for today are rescheduled, as the office has closed due to the snow. I anticipate a day ahead of snow being tracked into the kitchen, slowly melting on the floor.



Whenever it snows, I am reminded of an old saying....."Snow is like sex, you never know how many inches you're going to get, or how long it's going to last."
