		<description><![CDATA[Dear Lucy and Rosie, With this week&#8217;s first real Chicago snow of 2012, I cant help thinking back to last year&#8217;s Groundhog Day Blizzard. Here are some of our memories (and favorite photos) from that historic storm that I hope you girls will remember happily. Click any photo to enlarge. The snow started on Tuesday, [...]]]></description>

When Jon and I were first married, we were invited the next spring to join his parents for a week on Florida&#8217;s Captiva Island. I remember that beautiful week for so many reasons: my first reading [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two-thousand-eleven was a big year, wasn&#8217;t it? (Arab Spring, anyone?) Although we can&#8217;t necessarily lay claim to events of historic import, the Boyds&#8217; house has seen a fair amount of action itself, though we haven&#8217;t always covered it at the time. Here&#8217;s our Year-in-Review Edition. These highlights aren&#8217;t exhaustive, but they do include many of [...]]]></description>

The good news is that Lucy really is getting the hang of it. Click photo to enlarge. 11:45 pm. House quiet and dark, all asleep. Rosie (terrified and crying): Mama! Mama! Mama! Mama leaps out [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This summer, I discovered that I am seriously crazy for homemade ice cream. I never really enjoyed homemade ice cream very much. It was either too soupy (right out of the ice cream maker) or rock-hard (after freezing it). I kept our ice-cream maker in the basement, thinking that it would be a novelty for [...]]]></description>

Photo: Lucy and Rosie on the first day of homeschool. (Click to enlarge.) In many ways, we&#8217;re doing the same things we&#8217;ve always done: reading, trips to the park, errands with Mama.

In my job with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship, I do almost all of my work as managing editor for The Well from home.

There was a time when I was keeping a list of little tidbits of the girls&#8217; habits.

		<description><![CDATA[As the chief child-bather around here, I have some rules about splashing &#8212; or more specifically, not splashing me. But recently I&#8217;ve been wondering: what&#8217;s most important here? Photo: This isn&#8217;t a recent photo of Rosie, and it&#8217;s not even in our own bathtub (but at Circle M Farm). But it sure is cute, ain&#8217;t [...]]]></description>
