This weekend I was writing the date on something and realized that it was the weekend my baby brother was going to be in San Diego for a conference and meeting up with my folks. Mimi was with me at the time and I told her where her favorite (and only!) uncle was.

KT had to answer a bunch of essay type questions on her application to volunteer at the aquarium this summer. Proud the results here. I asked KT if she minded, and she graciously gave me permission to post mama that I am, I thought would shareit. (If nothing else, her grandparents will love to see it!)
Since I . . . → Read More: All About KT

For this week’s SPF, Kristine asks us to show us our To Do Lists. Hmmm….
I kinda cheated. This is technically KT’s list but it involves us all, so I figure it’s fair game.
This week has been the inane “mid-winter break” from school. I asked the girls what they would like to do this week. I told . . . → Read More: SPF Making a list

Shaun and I were chatting about our day when he suddenly narrowed his eyes and stared intently at the top of my head.
“Hold, still” he said. “Let me get that out of your hair for you.”
I didn’t move a muscle while I waited for my hero to rescue me from whatever ickiness had found its way . . . → Read More: My Hero

Yesterday, Mrs. Darling posted about some of her family’s traditions. It made me think about some of my family’s eccentricities traditions. Of course, we celebrate all the major holidays, probably much like your family does. Then again, I don’t know of many families that are fortunate to have such unusual visitors such as the Valentine Bunny . . . → Read More: Quick…Pretend you are asleep!

Weekend words are at the bottom…the rest is mostly for my mom but the rest of you are welcome to read along!
Yesterday, Shaun told me to “hurry up and get ready, we’re going to see a movie!” This isn’t all that unusual, except for the fact that he wouldn’t tell me what movie it was and . . . → Read More: My Birthday and WWC

Thanks you all for wonderful the birthday wishes. I had a truly lovely day. I’ll tell you all about it tomorrow, but first, before I forget, I want to talk about the dentist…
Our dentist has two ways of making semi-annual appointments. The preferred method is to set up your next cleaning just as . . . → Read More: Dental Dealings

As a kid, it was kinda fun to be the “Valentine Baby”. Every adult I knew gushed about how sweet that was. My friends were rather ambivalent about the whole two for one deal.
When I hit my teen and young adult years, I grew to hate Valentine’s Day. It was supposed to be my day, yet . . . → Read More: The Valentine Bunny

One of Shaun’s favorite quotes is Homer Simpson’s, “You know, Marge, in some ways, you and I are very different people …” As much as I hate to admit it, I think this very profound statement finally cemented it in Shaun’s head that we just don’t think the same way about things. It has never failed . . . → Read More: The Gift

I can’t remember when the seed was first planted, but for as long as I can remember, KT has wanted to be a marine biologist when she grows up. She had me paint an underwater wonderland in her room (much to my dismay, it had to be realistic, not silly like I wanted…although I did sneak . . . → Read More: The Aquateen
