Knight and I had a long (and emotional) discussion on Sunday night. We worked things out, as we always do, and I thank the Lord that I have such a wonderful husband.
He started his new job yesterday, and it turns out that the company has several IT needs that he will be taking care [...]

Can you say Crazy Cycle?
I haven’t really posted anything of significance lately because this week has been really rough. The title is in reference to our Love and Respect study. If you haven’t read the book, I highly recommend it. I swear the author has a window into our lives.
If you don’t want to read an emotional diarrhea of [...]

Why was he so quiet?
The result when your wife is in the shower and you are busy eating breakfast and not realizing that your two-year-old son has discovered a fascinating interaction between a small ruler and a laptop:
It wouldn’t be funny except that I knew Knight could fix it, and he did. After we spent an hour turning the [...]

Carrots are good for your eyes
In an effort to get Jet to eat his dinner the other night, Knight was telling Jet about his food.
K: “Carrots are good for your eyes! They help you see!”
J: “Yeah!”
K: “And cucumbers are good for your ears!” (yes, this is a little, um, misleading… )
J: “And cornbread is good for my BELLY!!”
Yep… that’s about [...]

Alas, there was no manatee…
We had a blast in Dallas on Saturday, even though I had three flake out on me. So, it was just me, the Bible teacher (who is one hilarious guy, and hereafter referred to as TBT), and four kids.The Dallas World Aquarium was great, even though the manatee is no longer there, or at least [...]

We’re off to see the Manatee
… the wonderful Manatee of Dallas.
How can I be up at the same stinkin’ time I’m always up, but it seem soooooooooooo much earlier because it’s a Saturday? I think my brain is playing tricks on me.
I’m taking some of my Science Club members to Dallas today. They’ve been selling snacks before school and doing [...]

You should call it…
Jet was in the bath this evening. I had my back turned, and he said, “It has balls in it!”
I was only half-listening to his chatter, but this caught my attention. I quickly recalled that he doesn’t have any ball-shaped bath toys.
“What?” I asked as I turned around.
Yep, you guessed it. He was … [...]

Because I want to post…
… but don’t want to think. I stumbled on this on another blog (that I also stumbled on), and thought it was rather insightful, except for the “truly adventuresome” part.
You Are a Warrior Soul
You’re a strong person and sometimes seen as intimidating.You don’t give up. You’re committed and brave.Truly adventuresome, you are not afraid of [...]

Funny babies
I know I should be working, but I stumbled on a post on another site listing funny baby videos. I had to share a couple of them!!
This baby is cracking up at his daddy playing golf on his Wii. This one laughs like an old man, and makes me laugh out loud every time. If [...]

Easter
Today was a great Easter. It was the first Easter wherein Jet actually “got” the whole Easter-egg thing. We’re working on the spiritual aspect, too, but I think he’s a little young for the nuts and bolts of the Resurrection.
I went a tiny bit overboard on getting things for his Easter basket, and decided to [...]
