This is what it looks like here for fifteen years. Where by “here” I mean “where there be Glees.” Young mothers take note: other people have messy (happy) homes too. #trufaxhouse

Dorothy strikes this ballerina pose for most of her pictures these days. What a perfect fall day.

#nationalcatday, I am told. Madeline likes to curl up in the bouncy seat.

My swift broke (boo hoo!) and I was winding this yarn by hand as it hung from the back of a chair. This sweet kid came up and volunteered to hold the yarn so I could wind it faster! Great big cake of Cascade Eco. Thanks, Gilbert! #knitting

Dorothy is looking coltish these days.

I’m fighting depression these days. It’s fierce! Like everything is foggy and down a well. I’m suiting up and getting shit done though. First off, I woke up today and I anticipate doing the same tomorrow, and so on. Second, even though it will be messy again before I can blink the floor is sorta clean now. Third, my husband is sympathetic and kind. Last but not least, my kids are pretty awesome. Also my cat #photobomber. #littlethings #depressionlies

It’s possible to knit and breastfeed at the same time.

Quine loves a good puppy-based phonics video. But then, who doesn’t?

Trixie drew these little doodles for Twine, who likes to draw with other people. The top one is a chicken, obviously, and the bottom one is Clem, with Harris nose and curly hair. I love the way Trixie draws.

Dorothy and my dad from last year. She loves him so much. She sometimes stops in the middle of playing and says “I love Grandad!”
