Memories of Mother
This past Sunday, May 28, would have been my mother's 60th birthday. I can't believe she's been gone over 2 years, or that some of my kids won't know or remember her; the rest of us will never forget. In honor of my mother, Judy J., I'm posting some of my memories of...
A Visit from the Tooth Fairy
Angel was thrilled to lose her 2nd tooth last night. She had been asking for 2 weeks when it was going to come out (as if I knew). Last night she was showing me how she could lay it down flat with her tongue and then do something with it with her hand, and it just...
A Midsummer Night’s Dream
The kids and I were reminiscing about A Midsummer Night's Dream, which they performed with the Shoal Creek Homeschool Co-op one year ago today. This was a wonderful experience and an amazing thing to watch the children from pre-school to high school doing Shakespeare,...
Fat-bottomed baby, and my crazy kids!
Isn't Bunny just the cutest thing? I just love those rolls! As Laura T. would say, "She's edible!" The two girls had a great time taking a bath together in the big bathtub tonight. Isn't it funny how a camera just brings out the nut in kids?
Dog-eared girls
The girls all wanted their hair in dog ears today. I told them I would take their picture. Baby Doll thought Muffin should have been in the picture, since she has "real" dog ears. Kitty Cat's in the picture, too, but Snicklefritz has been missing for about 4 days...
C-man on the field!
I was just so happy for C-man tonight. He had his first All-Star practice and he was almost "good as new" after breaking his collarbone! His coach was so awesome to save a place for him on the team. He missed the last 7 regular season games, and all he did in the...
Memorial Day 2006
Memorial Day was a blast - lots of fun, friends, and food! Here are some photos of the day (and incidentally, all of the children aren't mine) : Down time with Miss Fran Trying to catch the "big one" Boy, these kids are tired! Daddy and his baby girl
Where did I put my old thigh master?
Today after a lovely day at church (it is just so good to see everyone on Sundays, but Michelle and Melissa S., you were missed!) I braced myself and embarked on one of the most harrowing experiences an adult female can attempt: buying a bathing suit. I have avoided...
Laughter: The Best Medicine
Forgive me, but I find this cartoon hysterical! If you're not a homeschooler, you may not get it. If you're a homeschooler and you don't get it, you're probably the family this woman would be nervous about! This is a cartoon from Todd Wilson, a.k.a. the Family Man....
