My little boy is growing up much too fast. Last Thursday was his first day where he took more than just a few unsteady steps, and only a few days later (today is Monday), he’s wanting to walk around everywhere. Sigh… it’s very bittersweet.
He’s a smiling fool, happy as a clam when he walks. Today, Popo and I were each holding one of his hands when he decided he no longer needed my support. So, he flung my hand away. Independence – and not even 11 months old yet.
I had to laugh, cause he’s so like the two of us. I’m praying that I’ll be able to let him go, but I wasn’t expecting to have to do that when he’s not even one yet!

About Me
- Marion
- I was once on the path of a (possibly successful) business career before I got sidetracked by a love of teaching. Now, I've "retired" from the workforce and am a stay-at-home mom (read: one income) with two toddlers. We've made some choices so that I can be at home with the kids in one of the most expensive cities in North America. But we're learning along the way that by changing our attitudes and changing how we spend, we can feel like we're living a luxurious life. And we are. We are so blessed. WAY MORE THAN WE DESERVE.
