The latest after school conversation with Emma…
Emma: Can I have some gum?
Me: No, you’ve lost candy and desserts for a week.
Emma: How long is that?
Me: You can have candy on Friday.
Emma: Can I have candy after my snack today?
Me: You know the answer to that one.
Emma: There’s a lot of toys in the centers at [...]

Dear throat,
I’m really sick of you not feeling good. I drink plenty of water, I treat you right and all you do is give me swollen lymph nodes and nasty phlegm.
Get over yourself.
Please get better,
That sick girl
Dear knee,
I’m really sorry if I put too much stress on you yesterday. I thought you would enjoy the [...]

This week was Photographer’s Choice for You Capture. I always seem to struggle when left to my own devices, but I absolutely loved this shot when I downloaded it.
Seriously, you can’t beat this for a backdrop for soccer. And I just love how patient Jake looks!
You Capture is hosted by Beth at I Should Be [...]

I’m not sure what I liked the most about venturing out after the rain…

I thought I would have more free time.
I thought I would have my to-do list knocked at by noon.
I thought I would exercise every day.
I thought I would get through at least one book.
I thought I would [...]

This past weekend, we made the 11+ hour trip from Home Sweet Home to Dave’s folks in Illinois. Round trip, we are looking at nearly 24 hours of the 4 of us either in a car, in a rest stop, or in a restaurant.
That’s nearly 24 hours of blog fodder, folks. Here are the highlights.
Jake: [...]

Just for that moment, there was no fighting. No pushing. No yelling. No hitting. No kicking. No biting. No chasing. No bickering. No pestering.
Only jumping.
