Fly on the Wall

Brownies with ice cream, nice weather, and sharing laughter with your little brother...those are the things great days are made of. Now, if only I could be a fly on wall to hear what they think is so hilarious...

When you have kids, good help is easy to find....

Priorities

Yesterday, while discussing the virtues of being rich, my kids both showed me they really, really have their priorities lined up correctly.  Here is what they said about being rich,...


Amelia wants to be rich because she could -
1) be home schooled by Ms. Tonya.
2) watch all the movies she wants
3) take MawMaw to the dollar store and buy all the candy


Everett wants to be a grown up (he doesn't understand being rich, so he went with the coolest thing in the world, being a grown up) because he could -
1) read books
2) do work on his computer
3) say potty words.

So, there you have it.  No need to help the homeless. No need to travel the world.  No need to feed hungry children. For them, the dream is all-you-can-eat candy and potty words. Dream big, kiddos. Dream big.

Spot On

After much searching, pacing, and testing, it seems as though Sophie has finally found her spot on the new couch....

Picking

Now that we've made our first visit to the strawberry patch, our spring has officially begun...

Slugger

After a few strong swings, this slugger broke his first wiffle ball...

And his big sister helped him celebrate his home run....

Fresh and Clean

Sophie always looks young, spry, and healthy after she has a trip to the dog salon.  Of course, that doesn't stop her from shaking like a leaf and whimpering from the time she leaves the house until the time she gets back home.
