I got to Sofiya's today and something new happened. She gave me a project Walker did at school. (He colored a picture of a pizza with orange and yellow crayon.) It was so wonderful, I almost cried. It's not that it's his best work ever -- you should see the awesome Valentine's Day cards he

Walker loves to move things from one place to another. He also likes hats. On Christmas Day, the little munchkin combined his two passions and put a wicker trash can on his head and walked around with his new box of books. Walker had logged some considerable time with the basket on his head and

Moxie March 17, 1993 - February 4, 2009 AKA Moxie Muffin, Miss Mushie, Comrade Mushkin, General Mushmananov Moxie was a simple cat. She had one mission and that was to LOVE. But she didn't love just anyone -- you had to be part of an exclusive club, a FOM (Friend of Moxie). She came into

I've had a post drafted for a long time and had been waiting to post it until I had a chance to add in some photo

We've been having some DSL connection issues so I've not been able to post but I couldn't let 2008 slip past without one last post. This video encapsulates everything I loved about 2008 and wish for more of in 2009.

Walker pretends to be a peacock at the zoo. Clearly I'm old. I think I've pondered this publicly before, but I'm feeling old today. This week was extremely busy. The Adobe Sales and Marketing Conference was in San Jose this week and I traveled the 52 miles each way all week. Events started between 8:30

OK. I've been remiss in posting but golly, the holidays are fraught with time-sucking activities -- especially for those of us who are prone to trying to do ONE MORE THING. The only reason I'm able to find the time now is because Walker has decided that waking before 5am is the newest hip thing
