About Lemonpuss
I am living the dream and staying home to raise my three kids while my wife and I try to renovate our 150 year old farmhouse and keep the grapevines from consuming the house. We are a free-range family, and I spend my days with the kids crafting, gardening, canning fruit, and keeping the peace. Some days I'm lucky enough to fit in a little knitting. (Now with more kindergarten!)Contact me:

Peas in a Pod
This boy is so much like his sister it is a bit uncanny. The agility, strength, early physical milestones match up. We hung this bar for her because she needed a safe place to dangle. He spends tons of time … Continue reading
Cubbers
I know that this in no way counts as a blog post, but it is 3:06 am and my baby boy is sick with a cold. He just asked for covers for the first time after 19 months of kicking … Continue reading
Peaceful Evening
Margie went out to dinner straight from work, so I held down the fort tonight. We had to scurry to get snack for tomorrow’s school day, forty willow whips cut from our tree for a project at school, and baths … Continue reading
Thor
Truman handed me the Thor mask, then the book. “Deah!” which means “read”. What’s a Mom to do? I gave a dramatic reading worthy of a Norse God of “Moo Bah La La La”. He loved it. Then he asked, … Continue reading

One
Truman is one year old today. To commemorate the occasion, he developed a double ear infection. I wanted to write a bit, but will be going to nurse him down momentarily. All here are sick, so we are busier than … Continue reading
Treatment Plan
I cancelled my second chiropractic appointment. It is just not my thing. It is counterintuitive, painful and out of pocket. So. I made an appointment with my PCP and he diagnosed sciatica, told me that it will be better in … Continue reading
