Teething was in full swing last night, which delayed my latest post (just out now!)… Hey, it’s okay life will come in the way of blogging
For my son either, my comfort does not seem to ease the pain. I feel so bad!

My whole family is francophone, my blog will not tell her much at all… I wish I could do that!

Sounds like you are one busy lady. My little man is teething too and when I try to comfort him, there is much body stiffening and thrashing his head back. This has produced a significant amount of injuries, which just intensifies his screams.

Have you thought about printing your blog off weekly for your Grandma to read and mailing it? It may be something she could regularly look forward to and feel included in her own way? Just a thought!

Boy, don’t we all have those days? It’s always nice to know that we aren’t the only ones though. I hope tomorrow makes up for it!!

Thanks for the hugs, today went by so fast, I did not have any time for self pity. Truth is, today was a much better day. But leaving my son at day care in the morning gets only harder. It’s tough being a momma!
Letters to family usually makes someone’s day. That’s why I love it. Actually for my grandma, I’m pretty sure it makes her week whenever she gets a letter from me. I like to bring her that tiny bit of joy!

You know what’s sad? I was not able to take 5 minutes out of my busy work day to walk across the street and buy stamps… My letter is still on my desk at work… I guess there is indeed tomorrow, ehehe!
I read your post, the one that you thought you failed. I thought it was very thought provoking, so in that regards, it totally worked!
Sorry to hear about your loss, take care and come back when you are ready. (and that’s right, live and learn)

I know this kind of day – I had/have this kind of day. It’s like one after another & it’s exhausting, physically & emotionally. So sending you hugs from here. Also, thanks for reminding me, it’s time for me to send some photos of my kids to my father (he’s also not an internet savvy person).

You are too sweet. I love the idea of you writing letters and sending real photos. In French? I’m always so impressed with being bilingual. I try but fail regularly. My last post included. It did not go over nearly as well as I thought it would. I guess it is just too touchy of a subject. And then a friend of the family died, so I have not felt like writing anything new. Oh well, live and learn. And then try again.

You are right…we all have these kind of days…and you are handling it beautifully! What a nice way to end your day. There is something about composing a letter in your own handwriting that makes it special-for you and your grandparents. And photos included? Even better!
