On Thursday's I Post From The Vault. This Post Is From July 2012. I woke up this morning to a phone call from Diane Sawyer’s producer. An hour and a half later there was a film crew at my house. So. I guess we’re on World News with Diane Sawyer tonight? I think it’s at 6:30. [EDITED: NOT TONIGHT. LATER THIS WEEK] They are doing a follow-up to the orphans Diane visited right after the quake. (That would be Kembe in her arms. Can’t express how that felt – seeing him on the news happy . . .
Wednesday’s Child: Active Adrian Longs To Join A ‘Nice’ Family
Every Wednesday I feature a child recently highlighted by a local Wednesday's Child newscast to share the stories of children from around the country who are waiting for a family. My hope is that this can broaden exposure for the children highlighted, but also serve as a reminder that these children represent thousands of children currently in the foster-care system.

I Hate the Mom That Covid Has Made Me (My NY Times Op-Ed on Parenting)
One recent Thursday, I sent my 14- and 15-year-old boys off to the skate park near our house. I’m a parent who values a childhood lived outdoors. To that end, I’ve been a fairly free-range mom with my four kids, but as they left for the park, I gave them a warning that still feels foreign, even eight months into this pandemic. “Leave your masks on!” They both gave a nod of agreement and were off.

Dwelling on Design | On Thursday’s I Post From The Vault. This Post Is From July 2010.
On Thursday's I Post From The Vault. This Post Is From July 2010. I’ve been trying to find the time to sit down and write out my weekend, and here it is almost Thursday. I’ve been distracted this week with filling out a mountain of paperwork for Jafta’s kindergarten application. How in the world do I have a child old enough to go to kindergarten? Jafta got to have a look at the school today and he said as we were leaving, “I think this place is going to be very positive for me“. I really . . .

Life Lately
View this post on Instagram A post shared by Kristen Howerton (@kristenhowerton) Our holiday “bucket list” basically consists of crafts as a vehicle for eating more sugar, and cheesy holiday movies and binging The Office. 👍 Karis’s coffee habit is so bad that she has resorted to drinking straight out of the French press with a straw. (It’s decaf at least?) View this post . . .
