Whirlwind
I love this picture. I think it’s both hysterical and oddly artsy.
I found this new online magazine recently, Sekund, which focuses on parenting the second time around, ie. when you go from one kid to two (”Second”). I’ll have an essay in the May issue, coming out some time this month, so my husband has been taking pictures of the kids and me to publish with my article. I’m actually considering submitting this one because I think it pretty much captures it all.
Go check out the magazine though. It’s fun and brand new. You can subscribe to have new issues sent via email, and I’ll also update here when the new one with my essay is out (of course!).

“Whirlwind” is the perfect title for that picture. I love it! A person couldn’t capture that kind of shot if they tried! That is so exciting to have something published. I look forward to reading it. And I love the new pics in your blog header. Your boys are absolutely adorable!

This picture made me laugh! Your husband managed to effectively capture the whirlwind of movement that young children bring hey?
Congrats on the publication! I will have to check out that website for it looks really interesting. And, I know that your writing will be a great read as well.
Hope all is well! You look great so motherhood to two active little boys definitely agrees with you!!

I love this picture! It is beautiful, hilarious, and just so “motherhood.” A picture really can speak a thousand words. Good job, Sandy!
