I’ve been reading your FB posts for some time but haven’t commented before on your web posts. I recently found a diary of sorts that I started when pregnant with my daughter (she is now three). It was such a lovely find for me – and one day I hope for her too.

🙂
Catherine

Hi Samantha! What a wonderful small world! Thanks so much for connecting with me here… I’m going to check out your site… My middle daughter (soon to be 10th Grader) is interested in cooking and we were talking just yesterday about finding classes or an apprenticeship for her. 🙂 And yes, we’ll be saying goodbye to Charlotte in a couple of weeks. She’s excited to begin a new chapter.

I have an 18 month old little girl and when she was just a baby a friend gave me a RIE book — the principles seem so “right” and “innate” to me I was almost surprised to realize it was an actual parenting philosophy — and yet with the craziness that is life and work, I often forget to live them myself.

This was a lovely post. Charlotte was a student in my 7th grade homeroom. I left the School after 2 years to begin my own cooking school for kids, but I often think about my former students — especially as they graduated high school this spring! How wonderful it was to read that Charlotte is the lovely, caring, funny, whimsical girl I adored 6 years ago!

Delighted to have found your blog and connect with you — an added bonus that you are Charlotte’s mom!

Awww, thank you Ophelia. Your heart probably won’t entirely break because you will know in your heart that she’s more than ready… It’s wonderful to hear from you.

I read it, with tears in my eyes. My daughter is but 15 months old and I can’t even imagine how my heart will break when she leaves for college. How happy I will be for her and how sad that she will be off into the world.

You’re an amazing mum, Janet. <3

Yes, you won’t care about remembering the nap spreadsheet when your lovely one is 18, but you’ll wish you remembered all the amazing, silly, wonderful things from babyhood.
