Begun in a cafe in Athens, 2005 - dusted off 2021 in Bulgaria. Originally a travel diary for stalwart family, often a repository for notes, quotes, pictures, lists - no over-arching logic so no need to look. Therefore: A working archive/diary of a mother in Brooklyn.

I have wanted to send you a message more than once since I began reading your blog after Lindsey's death and the arrival of Hudson. While I barely knew "Linds," and Chad not at all, I was privleged to attend her funeral and deeply moved by the extraordinary stories and memories her family, friends and collagues told about her and Chad and their excitment as they prepared for parenthood.
I love being able to read your blog and am so appreciative that you are willing to share your thoughts and feelings with friends and strangers alike. It is surprisingly comforting and meaningful for me to be able to stay a bit in touch this way. I also draw real pleasure from reading your prose and the sweet, lyrical awareness you bring to the simplest moments of your day.
When I have occassion to tell the story of Linds, Chad and Hudson to someone, they invariably are deeply moved. So I often tell them to visit your blog and see how big and strong Hudson is growing (tripple chin no less!)and to read your own reflections. It seems important not to let the memory of Linds get superceded by the latest shocking news headline or just the normal exigencies of work and life.
So, dear Courtney, thank you, and keep blogging!
Traer
so. thanks.
Best regards!
