(Come watch life happen live)

We thought Danny was old enough to enjoy a National Geographic movie with computer animated dinosaurs. We were wrong. After watching a t-rex eat a smaller dino: “Mommy, that was his squeaky friend. I super scaaaaaaaaaared!”

You know it’s been awhile since you’ve been on a date when 20 child-free minutes sitting next to your spouse during the Sunday sermon drinking coffee and eating purse candy starts to seem romantic.

Sometimes it’s good to check and see what your child packed in their lunch. You know- just in case they happened to pack a tupperware full of sour cream.

Josh: Mom, I have a headache.
Me: Here, drink some water and see if that helps.
Josh: (drinks it) Nope. It didn’t go up to my head, it just went down.
Can’t argue with that logic.

Dear Precious Middle Son,
May your joys be as endless as you seem to believe our toilet paper budget is.
Love, Mommy

My child watched “Powerpuff Girls” and is convinced the evil monkey is named “Cookie DoughDough”. (Mojo Jojo)
I’m not sure why, but I’m pretty sure this is my fault.

I’ve spent the last couple afternoons furiously researching foster care laws in Nebraska and around the country in preparation for a meeting with one of our state senators next week. I’ve got to admit it- I love being a naptivist.

Child ran out toilet paper and decided to wipe with the empty cardboard roll. I’m not sure if I’m more disgusted or more impressed at those problem solving skill

Daughter (crying): Mommy, Danny took my schedule!! (a books she’d been carrying around with her)
Wait. . . are we sure she’s adopted?

Josh: Mom, I think for Father’s Day me and Daddy should eat hamburgers and pizza and watch something special like “Star Wars”. NO! Like “Prince of Bel Air”!
To each his own.

Word of Caution: When attempting to discern if a child has in fact pooped in their diaper and it occurs to you to pull open the back of their diaper to check, be very cautious about how far you put your finger into a suspicious diaper. You’ve been warned.
