Still Away From My Computer, but…

If everything has gone as planned, this post appears on July 31 and the Carnival of Family Life is to be hosted at Everything Under the Moon. I’ll catch up on reading this issue when I am back online mid-August.

#3. Random Recovery Moment

Random recovery moments are little summaries of good advice that I have found around the internet that are honest enough and funny enough to help you out while I am on vacation. Just not so helpful that these experts, who might actually have the advantage of being qualified, will be able to replace me in […]

Kate is on vacation and off line from July 29 to August 19. This post was written before she left.
Guess what these terms have in common:
C-Section Recovery

Below are links to all the posts on this topic with […]

#1. How I’m Spending My Summer Vacation

By the time you read this, I will be in the city of Lovech or Selo Gostinia (Selo means village), Bulgaria. Lovech is too far off the beaten track to be featured on the map from TravelBlog.org, but the town is 30 km South of Pleven. You probably also know that I am spending 6 […]

Our Values

Our family life is based in three countries. Our hearts are not always where our jobs are, but our friends and family are in our hearts always. We don’t spread out our affection and respect based on geography, economics or even blood ties. One of the things I hope our children are learning from their […]

Wait! Those are Muscles!

We are just back from a little side trip to Chiflik here in Bulgaria with my sister-in-law and her family. We swam every day in mineral water-filled swimming pools (including at the one pictured at the Hotel Diva although we didn’t stay there this time) much to the delight of babies, children, dad and mothers.
Swimming, more like bobbing […]

Notes on Motherhood from Elsewhere

“Kate, how much does one diaper costs in Germany?” My sister-in-law asked me other day.
The reflex among linguists would be to correct her grammar. How much do diapers cost in Germany? But there is no mistake.

No More Excuses

The nice thing about having a “pro-blog” is that I can use my professional obligations as an excuse to get away from enable my family to develop their independence. On Saturday night, to cap off a difficult day, I finally had a break-through.
“I need a break,” I told my husband. “I’m going to the Internet […]

More Vacation Reading…

 
It’s cover looks so inviting beside the bed. I can’t wait to open it.
I just need all the kids in house (mine and two nieces) to get over the puking and pooping virus that is striking everyone in town. If I don’t post for the next few days, you’ll know it’s because I am either […]

Thinking the Body Positive

OK. Enough whining. Time to think body positive.
Three things I love about my body after having children:

My hair, while often pulled back into a ponytail, is still long and curly and full despite all the strands that have fallen out due to hormonal changes.
My smile. The kids give me more reason to do it and, […]
