Chronicles of Chaos
Mother’s Little Helper
On Sundays, I’ve taken to reading the Lives article in the NY Times Magazine and the Style Section and then calling it a day. I’m also tossing the stack of old newspapers with must read headlines into recycling. I’m eliminating drag. This past week I loved the Lives piece by Nancy Kruger Cohen, Mother’s Little Helper.
I won’t spoil the twist, it’s an original take on our efforts to slow down with our kids. My latest dream of peaceful existence has evolved from a country house in Litchfield, Connecticut to include a barn with horses, chickens in a coop and a happy band of Labrador retrievers milling about. For breakfast, I will eat blueberry muffins hot from the oven. I have yet to reconcile these images with my dependence on store bought guacamole and carpools.
