Some of you may remember my best day ever. For those that don’t – or are too lazy to click that link and read about it – I basically had an absolutely fantastic day at the Animal Kingdom with N (who wasn’t even two years old at that point). It culminated in a real tear-jerker […]
Read MoreI had a funny one happen the other day. We were down at a place called Bagel King for breakfast, when C (our 4 year old) needed me to take him to the bathroom. We went to the restrooms, only to discover that they didn’t have the regular boy/girl pictures on the doors. Instead, each […]
Read MoreOur 4 year old has in his class a child that is pretty close to being a bully. He’s one of those kids who does mean little things as soon as the teacher’s back is turned: taking your chalk, pushing, that sort of thing. As you may remember, our little guy doesn’t back down very […]

Instead, she goes off and does her own thing. I’m not complaining about this, mind you, just letting you know the situation. The other […]
Read MoreFor some reason, perhaps because of Billy Blazes, the kids are fascinated by the idea of tornadoes. Unfortunately, they’re not quite able to say the word “tornado.” Instead, they say “tomato.” The other day they were playing outside, pouring water down the slide. Apparently, there was hot lava gushing down the slide, and they were […]
Read MoreA lot of kids have imaginary friends. N, our two year old, for a while had an imaginary friend called “Kee-kee”. I hesitate to call Kee-kee an imaginary friend, however, because he was used primarily as an excuse. When N said something that got him in trouble, he’d say “No! I was talking to Kee-kee!”. […]
Read MoreIn one of the great ironies of life, our kids were given squirt guns as presents this past Easter. Since they’d never used squirt guns before, there was a bit of a learning curve. N, for example, kept wanting to pull the trigger with his thumb. In order to do this, he had to hold […]
