    Do you love your asshole kids? Get the socks here. I found these gems (and some other fun ones) at the West End Garage in Cape May during our annual Mother’s Day trip. Here’s to all the mothers!

    Dos Shoes Doe

    Let’s be clear: I’m under no misconception that I’m any kind of a style influencer, but literally every time I wear these shoes someone asks me about them so I figured I’d share. Seriously, it’s already happened three times today. They’re the VenusCelia Walking Loafer* and they are amazing. They’re…

    to my son on his fifth birthday

    Gatsby, GB, Geebs, Jib, Gilbert, Geebarino— Happy Fifth Birthday. You are finally, in your own estimation, a “big kid.” No, you do not start kindergarten on Monday; you have to wait until August. This has been an amazingly transformational year for you. You’ve really come out of your shell… which…

    Disneyland with ADHD

    We just returned from an amazing trip to Disneyland, which is an absolutely perfect introductory Disney experience for kids: totally compact, walkable, and, of course, magical. My family are Disney Vacation Club members so we’ve been to Walt Disney World many times. Holden’s been there twice: when she was 10…

    to my daughter on her sixth birthday

    Happy Sixth Birthday, Superstar! In my previous birthday letters, I talked about waiting for the “magic switch,” where things would just magically fall into place, and–for all the parents following along–I think Year Five is that switch. This has been an amazing year for you: you started kindergarten, you’ve discovered…

    a letter to my son on his fourth birthday

    GB, Geebs, Geebo– Happy Fourth Birthday, Champ. It’s been a transformational year for you in a lot of ways: moving to the three’s classroom at York Day Nursery while your sister moved on to a new school; becoming fully potty trained (finally!); and moving into your own big boy room.…
