Inexplicable how one minute they are tiny infants and the next they are reading and writing. And have two wiggly loose teeth. I’m not sure why the teeth have me all weepy, but they do. Such is parenthood, I guess. Always bittersweet.

(Sorry, couldn’t help myself) It is! LOOK! Either way, HE LIKES IT, and he’s not ashamed! Buster is FUN! He can be a pill, like the other morning when a huge wind came through in the night, knocked the wheelbarrow over which broke the fence, resulting in a two slat opening, JUST wide enough for [...]

Emma is brilliant. No, that’s not just me being a proud mama, she is truly brilliant. Her kindergarten teacher told me so! They’ve changed grading systems this year and while she can’t test for advanced placement in kindergarten she says Emma is more than advanced. She seemed surprised that I didn’t know.

Brian’s off molesting fish- he’s been gone since Thursday. We signed the offer on the house (ACCEPTED!) and then he left. No celebrating for us. (I’m guessing he did an entire bottle’s worth of gin celebrating without me though!) Every year on the first weekend of May, Brian and his dad and all of their [...]
