Hungry child

Why are you always hungry? How could that little tummy of yours take so much food? We just had a big breakfast, and now you want more snacks. I know you are going to be just like your dad. He ate a lot when he was growing up too. Now he's a strong tall man, so I think it's a good thing.   

Happy Valentine's Day two days late!

My husband and I are the least sentimental people in the world. We don't even know where we keep are boys' first foot prints. There are no photos on our wall, and we don't keep cards that we have given to each other all these years. I'm sure if we did, there would only be a small handful of them.That's just how we are with each other.

I was sick on Valentine's Day, since I would otherwise be working, we didn't have any planned. I asked my husband to pick up my prescription and get me a lemon. I took a long afternoon nap, and when I woke up, dinner was prepared and the children were all sitting at the table ready to eat. He made my favorite chicken stir fry with his homemade sauce. He told me he got me a lemon just like I asked. After dinner, we watched Midnight at Paris, which was a good movie. It was so Woody Allen and so funny. We had to put the boys to bed toward the end of the movie, as they were getting increasingly loud and annoying. With all that, I felt loved and life couldn't be any sweeter.
