Suffering economy means less all around

Posted Tuesday, August 12, 2008 11:40 AM

Do you think Little Dude will notice that his wagon isn't as big as his friends' wagons? ;-) Waiting for a ride. Do I have to push myself in this wagon? A troubled economy means less to spend - and less to spend means, well, less! Truthfully though, the

Will My Future Daughter-in-Law Thank Us?

Posted Monday, August 11, 2008 1:17 PM

The Hubby does the majority of the cooking in our household, and I'm happy to say we are raising a son who will hopefully love the kitchen, as well. Microwaving some popcorn, perhaps? Caught in the act by Mom! So what do you think? Will he have a very

Pleading for sleep

Posted Tuesday, July 22, 2008 11:57 PM

Dearest, darling Little Dude - Once again Mommy is asking you to please try and sleep during appropriate sleeping hours - preferably between 8:30 pm and 6:30 am, for certain, but a longer sleep would be beneficial for all of us, and most importantly,

Babble, babble, babble...

Posted Monday, July 21, 2008 12:39 PM

Is there anything sweeter than listening to your little boy babble happily to you, in a language only he seems to understand, but somehow expects you to answer? Only when that same little boy happily comes and plants a wet kiss on your lips, and then
