This Week’s Tweets

The truth is out there … trust no one. #
is happy to be in Bellingham! #
I feel like death. No fun being sick 2 weeks in a row. It’s supposed to be a 1 or 2-day thing. Blegh. #
Forever moment. This morning, Buddy smiled at me and kissed my forehead. Just now, he kissed me and tucked me in. “Night!” 19 months old. #

Monday, Monday … screaming, pooping, peeing, piles upon piles of dirty laundry, clean laundry. Too much to do, don’t know where to start. #
Rinah: “Genesis 1:1 … In the beginning … umm …” Me: “What happened?” Rinah, excitedly: “Jesus died!” #
Buddy says: tickle (pickle); thikka (tickle); Kah-kee (coffee); Nane (Thane); Bee-bew (Bubu); Poky (Colby); side (outside); DDD (DVD). #
I uploaded a YouTube video — Rinah Makes Thaney Laugh http://youtu.be/BuW-_7MPnMU?a #
People talk about favourite ages and stages but for me, every age and every stage is my favourite. I’m loving every minute with my kids! #
I’m excited about using our new Sonicare toothbrush tonight. I’ve never used one of these things before. Thank God for Costco coupons! #
Rinah says, “It’s not a spoiny dick!” (It’s not a pointy stick!) #

Bubu said, “I imaginate a wall right there!” #
feels weird about being happy on Valentine’s Day. #
is wearing a diaper-free, clothing-free baby on her back. #
I uploaded a YouTube video — Natto Is Special Like Cake http://youtu.be/OhqNSfdkY5s?a #
My heart skipped a beat when a girl showed up at the door with a huge, beautiful bouquet of flowers and a card … that wasn’t for me. #
Gene Autrey is babysitting the kids and Thane is talking excitedly to my biscotti while I drink coffee and work on the computer. #
I love and enjoy cloth diapers and babywearing and I’m so thankful to God and the people in my life who showed me how. #
I carry Thane on my back so many hours daily my back aches sometimes. Here’s a “new” carry, bit harder but super comfy. http://goo.gl/YGCm #
is just happy to be happy today. #
I love that my kids get all excited about “Moh-der and Skewy and the Ets-Files” as Rinah says or as her brother says “Moh-er, Kah-ee, Fars.” #

misses formal liturgy in her life, BCP, morning prayer, liturgical year, calming, comforting, rhythmic spiral of days, weeks, months, years. #
just saw the Plan B commercial and lost it. So many poor dead babies. Evil, evil among us. Oh, God. Protect and avenge the innocent. #
has many symptoms but did not pass the pregnancy test last night so prolly another hormone surge like right before the last two pregnancies. #
I favorited a YouTube video — Weeds Intro - Season 2 Episode 1 - Elvis Costello http://youtu.be/cjbV9z50gPM?a #
misses home and family and friends and wishes her children could grow up in Tokyo. #
I admire men who love babies and find them sexy and appealing. This is true for many women. Too bad there aren’t many such men. #
This looks like so much fun. I’ve been wanting to go every year … maybe next year … prolly not, though. http://goo.gl/AZ2c #
The tax return came a WHOLE WEEK EARLY! ‘Course, doesn’t matter. Must ignore. It feels like Baby Step 2 is going to last forever and ever. #

has mastitis but needs to figure out how to make flash graphics TONIGHT. #
forgot how little fun mastitis is … just hoping it doesn’t get worse. #
Rinah says, “Twoo wuv is the BEST!” #
Rinah chants, “Noses opposes, a-roses, toeses, noses opposes.” #
had this year’s tax return rejected AGAIN … IRS has had almost 4 yrs to update my name but it hasn’t yet. SSA only took 2.5 yrs to do it. #
I uploaded a YouTube video — Father Abraham Dance http://youtu.be/6yuL0OO8WaE?a #

Up at 4:30. Yoga. Breath. Awareness. Pain. Release. Peace. Another friend in Tokyo died this morning. Husband, father of 4 young children. #
Rinah asks mournfully, “Why pooters need get boken?” #
is back from church progressive dinner. Food was wonderful. Exhausted. #

up at 2, nursed/rocked Thane till 4, lay awake till alarm at 4:45, yoga from 5:30, omw home peaceful, refreshed … sweet, sore agony. #
Rinah says, “If I watch Pink Panther I will be good.” So tempting. #

is trying not to get teary watching Valor lavish attention on his brother Thane, hugging and kissing him. #
There is no such thing on earth as an uninteresting subject; the only thing that can exist is an uninterested person. - G.K. Chesterton #
Surgeon wanted to slice and dice; specialist wanted to wait; they let me choose; guess what happened … LOL. Thank you all for praying. #
is dancing and swaying to Dean Martin with all three kids. #

really enjoys watching Pink Panther as a family on Saturday morning! Have a happy new year! #
looooooooves GAP … just got a 4T down jacket for $4.99 which retails for $59.50. This is why I don’t go to Goodwill or Value Village. #
no time for coffee, breakfast, or lunch for mama … now 1:30, nursing 2 feverish boys at the same time. My eye burns, burns. #
loved it today when the boys held hands as they both nursed. Thank you, God, for moments like these. #
I uploaded a YouTube video — Thane Laughs http://youtu.be/ex95mgj5LyU?a #
thinks it’s funny when Buddy asks for an “orgy” (orange). LOL. #
had fun working on web sites with Ben before bed … loves Chrome … and while on the top of love and hate, HATES, HATES, HATES iTunes. #

is so proud of Berek who just got accepted into Princeton for graduate school! Best Christmas present ever! Whoo hoo! #
is trying out TweetDeck. #
saw dr today; guesses when he makes sure next appt is a day that eye surgeon is available means he’s not too optimistic. Sigh. #
is bad mother … wishes naptime could be peaceful and fun but no … there’s endless screaming, crying, yelling, snot, tears but no sleep. #
is thankful to start a new year with happy, healthy children and a husband who makes yummy food. #
