It’s been a while since I’ve shared some of Coco’s witticisms. There hasn’t been a lack of material, it’s more like I just have to sort through what is blogworthy (and what just needs to stay in the family). You might judge us after you hear this one. You might think we’re bad parents. We’re… Read More »
She’s lives across the street from you. She’s a member of the PTA. You sit behind her in church every Sunday and tack her Christmas card on your fridge every year. You love to hate her. You love to plot her demise. Someday, it’s all gonna fall apart, she’ll see. Someday, one of those perfectly… Read More »
I kinda hate summer. Not gonna lie. I’ve never really been a fan of heat, shorts, or public pools. Even as a little kid I always preferred the structure of fall and winter to the supposed freedom of summer. What a strange child I was. I’m still strange, and the reasons for disliking this miserable… Read More »
Today Chaucer… 1. Jumped from a chair and landed face-first in the kiddie pool. 2. Played tag with 6 year old boys. 3. Was put in time out 5 times. 4. Grabbed a steak knife off of the counter (I thought it was out of reach). 5. Pushed our coffee table around the living room.… Read More »

And I’m unprepared…for this BOY that has replaced my baby. You all knew this blog was coming, right? And don’t you dare tune out just… Read More »
“Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world. Red and yellow, black and white They are precious in his sight, Jesus loves the little children of the world!” Coco: “But what about the purple ones?”
I love the talks I get with Coco at bedtime. There’s always this golden moment where I’m being a good mom and she’s being a perfect angel. I like it this way. For a split second I feel inspired and encouraged. Like I said, it’s a golden “moment” meaning that it doesn’t last long. That… Read More »
I wish I could be a kid again. A little kid that sees everything in life as spectacular. There would be moments of seriousness, of course. Sometimes it would be difficult to understand. But then there would be the adventure. THE adventure of just running. Of climbing a tree. Or finding a portal to another… Read More »
I could stand to learn a thing or two from my toddler. She could stand to learn about 14 zillion things from me, but that’s not what this post is about. It’s about what I’m learning from her. And it’s pretty good stuff, if I do say so myself. 10 Things I could Learn From… Read More »
Greetings. It’s time for Fascinating Friday and I’m afraid I’m a bit of an Eeyore today, meaning, I don’t really want to post a bunch of links to other blogs. I wanna change it up and dish you something different. I’m gonna share some of the fascinating things that are said in my household. Ready?… Read More »
