….because we’re staying in for another day. Just when KitKat was feeling well enough to go back to school, my dear Twizzler woke up this morning, gave me a pitiful look, and headed straight to the bathroom to throw up. So we’ll be doing a lot of this today: Thank goodness for books, comfy sweats,…

Knock, Knock! Who’s there?
What would you do if the kids were in bed, your husband was not home, and the doorbell rang at 10:00pm? I ran up to the door, peered through the peep hole, and shouted, “Who is it?” No answer. The peep hole was empty. Nothing. No response. I thought about opening the door, but I…
The moments every mother hopes for….
Necco came home from school today and asked if she could make a cake. Out of the blue. She got to work right away, and made the entire cake and buttercream frosting completely on her own. She even added sprinkles to make the frosting colorful and fun. And then she colored some of the frosting…
Spotlight on KitKat
Yet Another Jay and Deb Production. Hey! I’ve got 10 minutes before the kids come home from school. I have re-scrubbed the carpet where Necco threw up, vacuumed, shopped and put away the food….why not throw out one more post for the day?! And why not make it about someone else? Tuesday’s Tribute is all…
What are you avoiding?
For me, it’s the little kids’ room. There are just too many people and too many things in it to keep it orderly all the time. We have a wonderful IKEA shelf for books and special treasures, but things are rarely put back in the same place. I kept putting off tackling this spot of…

I ? Faces–Necco is IT!
I mentioned a week or two ago that I had found a fun new photo-sharing site–I ? Faces. The time has come to post pictures for the first contest! I decided to go with this picture of Necco for the Children’s section for the first week (I am going to save some of the pictures…
Quotable Sunday–Siblings
I don’t believe an accident of birth makes people sisters or brothers. It makes them siblings, gives them mutuality of parentage. Sisterhood and brotherhood is a condition people have to work at. ~Maya Angelou My father used to play with my brother and me in the yard. Mother would come out and say, “You’re tearing…
My 300th post (are you sick of me yet?)
I figured I’d send out one more post tonight….THIS IS MY 300TH post! I copied this from my Project 365/Photo-a-day blog. Just something fun. :) KitKat and I worked together to get a few pictures of candles burning tonight. I had a hard time deciding which one to pick, so I decided to post a…
