Mama in New England

This is us, as I navigate motherhood and enjoy the amazing adventure.

We are a family of four, a cat and a dog, living outside Boston, Massachusetts. I started this blog as a way to update friends and family who are afar, but it seems to have become somewhat therapeutic & helps me laugh when I need to.

Trading in Mom

I went to Target yesterday with Lanie and we were walking around the store.  She was looking at the mannequins.
We went by the womens' department and she spotted a particular mannequin that appealed to her.
"Oh! Look at that mama!" she said pointing to a mannequin, "I like it!  I like her clothes.  I want to take that mama home."
"That mannequin?" I asked.
"Yes," she agreed, "that lady mama."
"You have a mama, I'm right here," I told her.
"Yes," Lanie said distractedly patting my hand, "it's okay, you can stay here."
"I can stay at Target?" I confirmed.
"Yes, you stay here, I take that mama home," she reassured me.
