My name is Emilie and I’m blessed to be a part of this little family of four. I have two little boys, Lucian and Warren who have certainly turned my world upside down and around and even inside out! I try to treasure the small moments of each day, knowing they won’t be this little forever. I look forward to seeing the men they will be when they grow up.
I’m lucky to have, Joe, a wonderful husband and amazing father. He loves to run long distances and you’ll often find him training for races whether they be marathons or trail runs. With a job in IT and a love of philosophy and current events, he certainly keeps me thinking and in touch with the world.
And this is my four year old Lucian. My first born and the little man that blows my mind daily. He is curious and very smart and he always amazes me with his understanding. He loves anything that moves so he is very much into planes, trains and automobiles. He can’t get enough so I often will hear a random train whistle or vehicle noise coming from his bedroom, even when he is supposed to be asleep. Lucian has a fabulous memory and a love for words. He absolutely adores reading from his My First Words dictionary and enjoys throwing big words out in a sentence and using them correctly! Hearing him negotiate bed time cuddles is definitely a hoot.
Warren is three and my daredevil. He is typically independent and fearless but still sensitive. He is very lovable, a great communicator and extremely funny. You never know what might pop out of his mouth! He loves to cook with me and enjoys figures (like Toy Story, Spider-Man, Mr Potato Head, etc) and dressing up in capes, helmets and masks. He has a fabulous imagination! Currently Warren is in his “all by myself” stage and literally keeps me waiting often because he can not and will not allow me to help him with certain tasks like putting on his pajamas. It matches his can do spirit!
I left a career in finance to stay home with my boys over a year ago which wasn’t an easy decision. Blogging gives me something just for me and a sense of community that I’d be missing otherwise. I can’t believe I’ve had this blog for two years and feel very fortunate to have so many amazing readers and visitors on a daily basis.
