I’m not 100% poser. I’ve tried sailing. I took a series of sailing classes with my husband a few years ago. We learned to tie useful knots and how to tack and this and that and other terms I don’t remember. My biggest fear upon enrolling was tipping over. My husband said, “There is no […]
A Very Vintage Skirt and a Munchkin
My mother-in-law brought this skirt from Iran when she, along with her husband, the 10-year-old boy who eventually became my husband, and his sister, moved their lives to the United States in 1979. Frida had so much fun visiting family this weekend in SoCal. We decided to drive down south rather than flying this time—I’m […]

Trying out the hedgehog Funkie Baby bib I’ve been at this mom thing for a year and a half now, and Frida, who’s now 18 months old, has created all manner of messes during our time together. A bib mitigates some of the disaster, but some bibs are better than others. Before Frida even came […]
Bye Bye 2013
In June, on Adoption Day. Photo by Jen Sullivan Brych It’s January 2, but I’m still clinging to 2013, because it has, exaggerated as it might sound, been the best year of my life. In 2013, the husband and I adopted a baby. 2012 was pretty good, too, because that’s when we first laid eyes […]
