Being as I’m surrounded by short people all day, you’d think I’d be really good at “small talk” by now. Truth be told, what I’m actually good at is talking to small people. The other day, I actually asked one of my adult friends if she had to go potty.
Hoping not to make the same [...]
It would appear that Laylee has started a blog without telling me. And her subject matter makes mine look like the slow bus of bloggage.
“Mom, I want to blog my Pla-to.”
Oh, really? He’s good, but I prefer Nietzsche.
Today for Tip Tuesday, I’m asking for some creative topics for future Tip Tuesdays. They don’t have to [...]
Monday was another scorching hot day in rural Seattle with highs reaching into the low 90s.
Thou darest to call me a wuss?
Ha HA! Well it may seem a bit more scorcherific if you picture unpacking boxes all day in a house with no window screens that backs onto a lovely bug and [...]
Everywhere we go, Laylee begs for “more doom please.” Sadly, she’s not tall enough to experience anything but the most juvenile form of doom. At the Houston Aquarium they have a miniature Drop of Doom with some pansy name like “The Magic Lighthouse” or something else equally inane. Luckily the girl can’t read so I [...]

Two for Togetherness
Two things you compliment your husband on while in his presence:
1. [...]
So a while back I signed on to read a child-rearing book along with Krista. I was pumped. I was literate. I was attempting to rear the children. No big deal, right?
The book is What Do You Really Want for Your Children? by Wayne Dyer.
Well, I’ve had the worst time keeping up with the reading [...]
Dan, Papa and I spent a fabulous day at NASA, yes, that NASA, where the astronauts are.
My mom took one for the team and spent the day watching the grandkids, yes those grandkids.
To make it up to her, we brought home a NASA shot glass that she can use to take her “medicine.” That’s what [...]
Okay, I’m a bit late but better late than never. I’ve been too busy hanging out with my pappy to stop and write about him. Alas, it’s only a week and a half until Fathers’ Day and we’d better plan something to make up for the fact that we did practically nothing [...]
