BLUESFEST!

I have to say that Bluesfest was a bit of a let down. First, I was too tired to go to it every day - and that's a bummer. Ordinarilly I would not only be at BF from open to close every day but I would work either a full day or a half day. This year, despite being off of work, I couldn't even go every day. I missed three days all together and wasn't there until later in the day even when I made it.

I must say however that the Bright Light Social Hour did not disappoint. They were so great that Laurie, Char and I skipped BF to head out to Neat Cafe in Burnstown to see them for the THIRD TIME IN A WEEK!! Tres awesome. I'm now officially a groupie. Check out my photo below of Laurie and I with the smallest guys to come out of Texas!

Telling the Kids

The hardest thing in the world.  Much crying, screaming and hugging.  I've promised to be totally honest and tell them everything as I learn it.

Logan is very attentive and openly affectionate (this does not extend to touching in front of his peers, however).  Sydny is coping by pretending there is nothing going on.

  2. You know I've thought this for a while but I think your kids are lucky to have a Mom like you. (they may not think so as they grumble about cleaning up the room). But your love for them and respect for them has always inspired me. I can't imagine a tougher conversation but I know you and your kids share such an amazing bond that you will all find your way. xox

  3. It is so important to tell your kids and to make clear with them that you won't hold anything from them, it spares them unnecessary stress. My daughter told me years later that during my sickness, she was not worried, because I had promised to tell her everything, so, since I was around, she thought thinks where ok.
