Last week I posted the following picture of my daughter: It’s from the first day of school last September. When I look at it, I think 2 things: 1. Aww. She’s so cute. 2. Suri Cruise. Yup, that’s right. I think about some celebrity’s 5-year-old child. And it’s not because of the stir little Suri [Read More]

She looked at it, sighed, then said to me, “YOU’RE not 5.” Then she instructed my husband, “Take it again.” So here’s the second, Sydney-approved [Read More]

OMG
Sydney had a playdate last week with one of her sweetest friends. These two 4-year-olds play so well together: pretending to be ponies, teenagers (that cracks me up), mommy and baby. So sweet! At one point during the playdate, Sydney said dramatically, “OMG” about something. I think she must have picked this phrase up from [Read More]
