While putting together my baby shower a couple of months ago, my sister asked me if I had any baby pictures of the CPA and me. I had plenty of me – no problem. But it wasn’t until that moment that I realized I didn’t know what my husband looked like as a little boy. And [...]

Remember how not too long ago I finally ordered my wedding prints after being married for almost two years? (In April of this year, to be exact.) If you will remember, it took much gentle prodding from my photographer, but I had finally ordered our large wedding prints. I was excited to see them when [...]

A wise man once told me that in order to keep from worrying about something, you should imagine the worst that could happen and then plan for it. That way, no matter what actually does occur, you will be ready, thus lessening your worry. Wise words indeed. I tend to follow this philosophy with a [...]

I don’t know if I’ve ever told you before (I’m guessing you may have picked up on this on your own) but I am married to an older man. And by older, I mean that there’s a 17 years difference in age between us. (Gasp!) If someone had told me years ago that I would have [...]

How do you know when you should get married? This has always been a difficult question for me, which might explain why it took so long for me to tie the knot with someone. Even now when I’m the one who is asked by friends, I struggle with the answer. I remember my years spent [...]

A recent post by my Internet friend Jill got me thinking about the age-old question: can you be friends with your ex? Actually, I began thinking about this long before her post. In fact, I can remember a conversation that the CPA and I had before we got married. A conversation that included me saying [...]
