Hot dog fingers
Tyr was scratching my back on Mother’s Day and Adam wanted a back scratch too, so he told Maeven to go scratch his back…his reaction: “No! She has no fingernails! That’d be like rubbing 5 hot dogs on my back!”
Survival of the fittest
Having a discussion about survival of the fittest with Adam and Tyren..I mentioned maybe some deer had longer necks and were able to survive because they could reach more food… Then the conversation evolved into silly speculations, ending in Adam saying: “What if the original inventor of the forklift was really shortnecked deers, and humans stole the invention.” Um, whaaaat? […]
Thoughts on family
I was just doing some thoughts on family while showering. I do a lot of thinking in the shower. Some families are not close. I know families that spend time together, but don’t necessarily know each other or even really enjoy each other’s company. They might have awkward or toxic relationships or they might just do get togethers because it’s […]

I just walked into the bedroom to my husband demonstrating to my 10yr old how 2 min isn’t very long in a very unique way… Timer set on his iPhone, wacking son with pillows, tons of giggles from my son. My husband’s parenting is never a dull moment, I tell ya.

Let’s see, it was 2009 to about 2011 […]
How crude
My husband just told my son not to use the word “asteroid” because that was “kinda crude.”…”Call it a buttsteroid.”
Depression sucks
Seriously. I don’t like this feeling. I rarely feel like this, and I imagine it’s brought on by that time of the month, so it should be temporary. But I just do not do well with this icky feeling. I am starting to really get an idea how hard it must be to be someone who deals with these emotions […]
