Envy of a little brother

Yesterday I was making cookies and let Addie clean one of the beaters. I looked over and saw this:

It was very obvious that Addie knew that she had something special and Eliot was longing for the day he gets the other beater!

One Thumb Up One Foot Down!

About the name

During these early years of parenting, I feel that I am constantly giving my sons and daughter encouragement to try something new and then immediately turning around and telling them to stop doing something else. This 'One Thumb Up, One Foot Down' approach of life isn't that far from how my own life feels at times - movements forward and backwards, highs and lows - and this blog is my attempt to share some of these moments with you. I invite you to join me on the ride as often as you can...

This blog is designed to be our family scrapbook. We don't want to bore you and make you flip through a book every time you visit us, but we do invite you to visit here any time you like.
