This morning, while Maria and Jack were waiting for the boys’ lessons to be over, Jack went off to the grassy area with my iPhone to dance to his [...]

Luke (walking to the van from the pool):  How do you know your nipples aren’t mosquito bites? Me: Ummmm… ’cause they’re always there? Thankfully he was looking at his, not mine, when he said this.

Dinner

A dining experience with the H family: The menu:  Flank steak, potatoes, biscuits and milk (This is big, people.  I don’t cook much.) Thinking ahead, I preheated the oven so the potatoes could go in around 4:30 and we could eat around 5:30.  Around 5:15 or so, I wander into the kitchen to start getting [...]
