my thoughts on motherhood, kids, books and stuff
After many attempts and two daughters on the verge of tears because they thought it was going to kill me…I finally caught this bee in flight. As I was prepping the picture to post I noticed there is an ant sitting on a leaf on the far left.

We went for a little ride tonight before the kids went to bed. When we got home it was dark out and as we stepped out of the van we were hit with the smell of spring. So we grabbed the kids and snuck into the neighbors yard by the light of the full moon [...]

What a day to find out that I locked my keys in the car last night. We had a play date, kindergarten roundup, soccer…and I will get to the last thing in a minute. It’s a doozy. So I walked the kids to the play date, which wasn’t a big deal because it is just [...]

Racko was one of my very favorite games as a kid so when I saw it at Uncle’s Games over the weekend I had to get it. (total rip off at Amazon at $13.99, but with the almost $8 shipping on the Uncle’s website it is also a rip-off…maybe Target has it?) It says it [...]

Luca had tryouts for her school talent show today. I walked into the gym with her and she ran and sat down on the gym floor to wait for her name to be called. Unfortunately, the sign up sheet never made it home and I thought it was just a "show up" kind of thing [...]

Lilacs make me think of my mom. They are her favorite flower. I couldn’t give her a paper cup with a bunch of lilacs from the yard like I use to do when I was a child…so this will have to do. I wish we could have spent Mother’s Day together sipping Diet Coke, eating [...]
