Lambert’s Cove

lambert’s cove

We had so many perfect days on Martha’s Vineyard this summer. So many moments of watching Henry stand on his head looking through his chubby little legs for a new view, watching Annabelle play mermaid, watching George swim while holding both kids in his arms, watching the fog roll out, the magic hour purple roll in, the sailboats float in the mist, walking barefoot through the woods on the powdery white sand, flowers dripping in the trees, telling Annabelle stories of Bigfoot and Fairies, the reflection of the sunlight on the water making the air sparkle–so much magic, so much joy. So many moments of me thinking this is it, this must be what heaven is like, at least this is heaven to me.

    Suncatcher

    Kim was a suncatcher. She literally was so full of light and the air around her twirled and radiated rainbow lights. She would have been 46 on February 8 this year, 2020. So when I was invited to a birthday party for our dear friend, Sunny, on February 8 in LA, I decided it was time, time to go to Kim’s house to bring back the things from our twenty five years together—from our Royal Palace days, our Honey and…

  • Madness of La Cucuracha

    Last night was mad I tell you, absolutely mad! A true case of delirium! I awakened in the middle of the night, I’d say around 3 or 4am, and remembered the stroller was sitting on the porch. This worried me as it is a very expensive stroller and I LOVE this stroller and I couldn’t bear the thought of it getting stolen. I had to wrench myself from my very cozy bed and venture down the stairs, and who should…

  • Mermaids, Fairies, Pillows of Rose Petals

    Annabelle’s hair obsession continues. She wants long hair, and after our puppet making adventure (making sock puppets), she kept pulling out the purple yarn and asking me to make her into a puppet. “How will I make the yarn stick to your head?” I asked her. “Sew it on,” she replied. “We can’t sew yarn onto your head,” I explain, “You’re not a sock.” We reached a good compromise by tying long pieces of yarn onto a hat my sister…

  • Marlise and Scott, Two Peas in a Pod of Strange Lyrics

    My little sister’s husband of twenty years is quite a piece of work. Busting with testosterone, the man is a burly bear, a work-machine, a snap-turtle, and a sweetheart underneath his very gruff exterior. Scott physically looks just like Kurt Russell, walks with a cocky strut ala John Travolta in Grease, and snaps at people like Henry Fonda in On Golden Pond. He does have his moments though. Like the time they were watching the World Series and the Star…

  • First Day of Preschool

    Well, the first morning at Annabelle’s preschool went incredibly well. She ate a good breakfast of angel hair pasta nests, her favorite meal, and got dressed and out the door on time, wearing her little pink dress that has the word “Annabelle” monogrammed across the chest. On the way there, I told her the teachers would be speaking to her in a different language. She told me how she loves different languages. She immediately jumped in playing playdough with the…
