When I was about to have Fiona two years ago, I did something I considered quite daring: I asked for help for my meal making in that last month. I was as huge as a heifer, my right leg perpetually swollen, everyone telling me to have a seat, but I still needed my family fed….

Trouble at the Table
ByShalagh Hogan November 24, 2012October 29, 2020

My family’s tomato soup episode was one of those final moments when I knew we were in trouble at the table. I had heard the husband strike a bargain with our 7 year-old Picky-a-saurus. Whatever treat the child was requesting could be had after he ate and finished his cream of tomato soup. OK, the…

As the 100 day project winds up, I'd like to return to Insta on the daily like so many years ago. We need eachother back then and now more than ever.
Maybe I need you more than ever. This is me showing up for myself, asking to be Known, my word of the year, and hopefully you'll want to meet me here too!

An unglued Day 86 .

This gorgeous human just turn 13. We named her Fiona and she deserves a tribute today.

She is such a genuinely kind person, she's even a member of the kindness committee. She'd give you the benefit of the doubt that you don't deserve. Her compassion is endless.

Unknowingly, she's the loudest person on the stage and that's where she loves to be. The modest showboat. So smart and wickedly funny and devoted to you and your joy for life.

Fiona is a strikingly beautiful human inside and out. And she was surprised that she's as photogenic as she is. I am grateful to her friend Wren's mom
Heather for taking the girls to the park before the dance to take these amazing photos ❣️ Priceless.
