Friday, April 18th, 2008 Let me tell you about kids and sand and water. No, I’m not talking about the beach. I’m talking about my backyard.
We took our pool out last summer because it was 14 years old and past its prime. Under the pool was sand. Some of that sand is still in the backyard, having rested […]
Telling Time
Saturday, April 12th, 2008 Kids are hilarious! Of course, my granddaughter Kendyll is also a genius, just because she’s my granddaughter. But you all knew that, right?
Kendyll was following me around today, getting into anything she could find. Nick was trying to get the insulation put back in the ceiling of the garage - it had fallen out […]
When You’ve Got Teens
Thursday, March 20th, 2008 Do you remember those ads that used to be on TV that said something like, “It’s 10 pm. Do you know where your children are?”
I haven’t seen those PSA’s on TV lately but I keep thinking about them. That’s because for the past 13 years, I’ve had at least one child old enough […]
Just Like Grandma
Wednesday, March 12th, 2008I never thought much about it back in October when I posted the first picture of Kendyll using a potty. I mean, I know a lot of people sit on the toilet and read. Some people go so far as to call it a library. Yes, it was funny that Kendyll insisted on having […]
Evil Mom?
Saturday, March 8th, 2008 Can someone explain children to me? I know, I have six of these creatures and really ought to have it all figured out by now. But I don’t and I doubt I ever will.
About an hour ago, Levi moaned his way into my office to let me know that he is starving. He’s not […]
Kids Are Costly Part II
Friday, March 7th, 2008 In less than a year, I’ll have my car paid off. That means that in less than a year, I’ll be able to drop the auto insurance on that vehicle to just liability. YAY!
We saved a fortune when we dropped full coverage from Brian’s truck. We saved even more when we paid off […]
Kids Are Costly
Friday, March 7th, 2008 Anyone with kids knows that they can do unbelievable damage to a home. Well, at least boys can. I don’t remember ever being as destructive as my boys are and even my mom has said the same thing.
My sisters and I loved baths. We played in the tub just as any kid does. […]
Is This Genetic?
Thursday, March 6th, 2008Some of you may remember a post I did back in in July from my son Nick’s birthday. If not, you missed the oddity that is my son. The one picture on that post that you need to see (in case you don’t want to click away right now) is the underoos on […]
A Mother’s Blind Love
Tuesday, March 4th, 2008 Now before you click away, thinking this is going to be a sappy, emotional post, stick around a minute to read a paragraph or two. Seriously, this is good. I’m about to make fun of myself and expose one of my major flaws so if nothing else, you can laugh at me.
Recently, I […]
Potty Time!
Friday, February 22nd, 2008Kendyll turned two at the end of January. She’s been sitting on the potty now and then for about 4 months. When I say I have to go to the potty, Kendyll will stop whatever she’s doing and walk me into my bathroom. She knows “Grammy’s potty” and “Kendyll’s potty” so she’s getting close […]
