These Small Hours

Welcome!  I'm a lesbian mom to twins (Nathan and Julia) born in 2006.  I write a lot.  More than I ever publish, so I thought I'd create a space to share the things I have to say about life, motherhood, infertility, and whatever else comes to mind.  


So what's with the title?  Well, as I was setting up this site, the twins were watching a movie and the Rob Thomas song "These Small Hours" came on, and it immediately struck me as appropriate for a blog about life with kids:


"Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders,
These twists & turns of fate
Time falls away,
But these small hours,
These small hours still remain."

I can be funny, serious, irreverent, sassy, and crass.  If something ticks me off, you'll know.  I'm going to pull out some things I've written and stored away and put them here.  When it comes to comments, I'm all for healthy debate, but don't be a jerk.  

So that's the deal.  I hope you'll stick around!
