    My Little Buffalo

10 Month Letter.

Dear Harrison, Today you are 10 months old.  This morning, you piped up a little too early for my taste, but in all honesty, I was ready to start the day the moment I saw your face peering over the rails of the crib.  We made a quick run to the grocery store & when [...]

9 month letter.

Dear Harrison, This is typically the place where I should say something cliche & cheesy like, “Oh, you’ve been out as long as you’ve been in!” but we all know that would be a lie.  BECAUSE YOU TOOK FOREVER TO COOK, KID.  & you don’t get to hold that honor of even baking on both [...]

7 Months…a week late.

Dear Harrison, I struggle to begin this letter because all I want it to say is “I love you.  & everything I do, I do it for you.”  But a) that’s too cheesy & b) I’m pretty sure Bryan Adams would take issue on a copyright rampage.  Harrison, sometimes it breaks my heart knowing how [...]

Four Months.

Three Months.

I don’t want to write a love song for the world I just want to write a song about a girl & a boy… ~Michael Franti & Spearhead Dear Harrison, Three months.  Over 13 weeks.  And well on our way to 100 days.  Or, as Daddy pointed out today, a quarter of a year (to [...]

Two Months.

The faith of knowing deep inside your heart That Heaven holds more than just some stars Someone’s out there watching over you That’s the kind of day I wish for you….~Faith Hill Dear Harrison, As I sit here, holding you over my shoulder while you quietly snuggle in sweet baby fashion, I think about all [...]

But for now I'm rocking my baby, & babies don't keep…

But children grow up, as I’ve learned to my sorrow So quiet down, cobwebs. Dust, go to sleep. I’m rocking my baby. Babies don’t keep. ~Ruth Hulburt Hamilton Dear Harrison, Today, we celebrate the past thirty-one days. Thirty-one days of bliss. Thirty-one days of tears. Thirty-one days since you were born. Thirty-one days since my [...]
