“Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.” Kahlil Gibran Over the last month, it seems as though Fig has become more attached to me than usual. She’s sleeping through the night now and I’m down to only two breast-feeds […] “Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love.” – Hamilton Wright Mabi Now that I have an opportunity to write, I’m realizing that I really missed my daily postings last week! It reminds me of when I moved away from home to go to the […] “Everyone eats and drinks, yet few appreciate food.” Confucious Big Daddy-O was away and the girls and I had to run an errand in the late afternoon.
