Would you believe that my son got all those presents for Christmas PLUS all the toys he already had and he is over here playing with… clear plastic spoons. Gotta love the way children think.

I get too overwhelmed by the joy that is their child through their eyes. I lose all the affirmation that I am doing alright with my son.

Okay so we did make the angels for the tree, only 2 of them, and they are made from a spoon and a rag. My son decided to make multi-cultural angels, though, so one of them has a black face. We didn’t have any other marker colors out, so I guess he thought that was [...]

Funny how children can be so perceptive and we can be thinking the same thoughts as they are. Just look at my friend Sindy’s son Josh. I mean, wow. I thought that I was upset about Christmas music being so early in the year. It was pretty funny to read about his reaction. I love [...]
