he’s a senior // week 36

09.13.14 By Lindsey G 4 Comments

Well the time is here, our last First Day of School photo for our oldest.  I didn’t think it would be here so fast. I’m not going to write today about how I feel about this moment although I am reading plenty of other great pieces about what’s next including Two words of advice for college freshman….

Adjustment Bureau //Week 28

07.15.14 By Lindsey G 2 Comments

Oh how life changes in an instant. One minute you are sitting at a light behind a “loaner” car day reflecting on how lucky you have been with the current one you are in and the next you are watching (in slow motion) the front of a giant black car plow into the back of yours….

Sometimes I am inspired to take photos in the oddest places. Bathrooms are one of them. We just came from Vans where we bought the ASPCA cat sneakers. My fav place for tacos (and vampire juice … freshly juiced beet/carrot/ orange … called  jugo vampiro. Taco Mesa, Orange Ca. They have Keith Haring inspired ceilings. Sent…

My kids started school Wednesday and then clouds parted and angels began to sing  … hallelujah or was it Andy Williams’ The Most Wonderful Time of the Year, they may have BOTH been playing. I can’t quite remember. I didn’t think this day would come. The day when both kids were in school. All. Day….

Dear Fifteen Year Old

Dear 15 year old son, It has become glaringly apparent that my time with you is quickly coming to a close. No matter how much love a fifteen year old thinks he does or does not need, is irrelevant. You can never love a child too much. I am your biggest fan. I have always said…

Braces Are Off

05.30.12 By Lindsey G 14 Comments

Its a rare sighting today on my blog. My teenager. And my teenager smiling. If you ask one of my ten regular readers here on the blog they’ll tell you I have two kids but they aren’t entirely convinced about the teen. I promise he does exist. He is your typical freshman and according to…

That’s right you read that correctly I not only have a teenage son who is a freshman I also have a daughter who just had her first day of kindergarten. A couple weeks ago I sent them their separate ways and I think I can safely say that letting go of the high schooler is proving to…

8th Grade Washington DC Trip

04.19.11 By Lindsey G 16 Comments

Having an 8th grader is a big problem for me. It means I have to come to terms with the reality that my son is not 7 anymore. I loved 7. I don’t care what anyone else says for a boy seven is the best age. I don’t write as often about my son as…

First Day of School and Being Not Cool

09.02.10 By Lindsey G 13 Comments

My oldest started 8th grade yesterday. Every year it’s getting harder and harder to get him to stand in front of the gate. Only 4 more “gate” photos I kept reminding him. I think he muttered “good” under his breath this time.
