How Time Flies When You Are Five
I can’t really explain why I haven’t been posting here lately. It was a busy summer, we had a lot of fun and happy times, I have been talking to my actual friends in real life about the cute things my kids do, rather than just posting here.
But I like this blog, dangit! And some [...]

Want to play a hundred?
Mom, lets play a hundred.
Hmm. I don’t know how to play that.

The Supreme Being

Tender sweet young things
Sorry for the long silence here. We’ve been busy. Glad to be back.
We don’t have cable anymore, so a lot of our tv watching is on the computer. Hulu, youtube, netflix streaming, whatever. Lately we have enjoyed Free to Be You and Me videos on youtube. My parents were hippies, and I loved these stories. [...]

So. The boys are about to go meet their grandmother and auntie, who are visiting from far away and who they don’t get to see very often. I thought it would be nice to make cards for them, so we did that little art project this morning.
