I have heard that for catching swarms, it may be better to place the hive a little ways away from the hive you expect to swarm.

[...] -I started reading Breed’em and Weep a few weeks ago. I do actually cry sometimes and I have bred some, so I guess I’m allowed. Her latest post, an open letter to teenage boys, has lots of good stuff in it. This post resulted in me sending her a fan letter, an action that always results in almost immediate remorse because I am a dork. [...]

If we weren’t sad we wouldn’t recognise happiness.

Spring will come soon.

I was sad too. For close to 15 years I was sad. And it waits on the edges of my happiness, always looking for an opening. Always showing up a couple of times a month. I am not the mommy I should be. I am not the wigfe I should be. The writer. The woman.

But I am finally finding happy. From nowhere, I have become comfortable in my own skin. While sadness might be sleeping like a dog, always curled up by my feet, I am still finally happy.

Happiness will come. And eventually I will be that mommy I am in theory. And they’ll be as happy as I am. But we’re all getting there… one day at a time.

I am sad too. I scare me too. I have searched and come up empty handed for longer than I care to reflect on. I worry that ‘my little half-my-size ones’ will only remember me being like ‘this’ when they’re grown. But I feel safe here, because you put into words what I cannot and I want to offer you my palms. And I accept the offering in yours. Thank you.

This is the first post of yours that I’ve read, and I’m moved to tears. I just wanted to tell you that every single thing you wrote — about writing and blogging and parenting and being — struck a chord with me. I’ll look forward to your poo posts (because, heck, poo is funny), but I hope you’ll always feel free to write what you feel.

I came over here to check you out because Alice mentioned you over at Finslippy. I wasn’t sure what I would find. I’m so glad that I followed that link. In three entries you’ve made me laugh, cry and wax introspective about love and God and things dear to my heart. I’ve only been here for ten minutes.

If it’s okay I think I’ll come back again.

I’m very sorry about your dog and your sadness. Holding out palms to you…

You are such an awesome writer. Seriously.

Those little half sized people, they’re not only sponges but they are rubberbands, too. And they will soak it all in and learn, but they won’t be harmed, they will bounce back. Your tears will make them who they are meant to be once they are full sized. Your impact, both the happy and the sad, are critical to them.

March on…
