yard update




Guess who has babies?

Mr. and Mrs. Red Bellied Woodpecker!

They are so sweet up there tweeting when they know a bug is nearby (check the beak).


Mr. and Mrs. Thrasher must have had to go into the witness protection program, bc they are no where to be found. Interestingly there are two other thrasher nests nearby. What are they trying to trick someone? Like the neighborhood cat perhaps?

ouch

Sort of sad when a Catholic school has a function where siblings are not allowed.

after school snack disaster

Hut, two, three, four,
Cottage cheese is on the floor.
Five, six, seven, eight,
What a mess! I'm so irate.

the little things

Let's face it: King babies our youngest child.

I could cite examples.

Lately, though, there is this thing they do in the morning. She gets dressed while he is downstairs maintaining order with all the lunchbox packing/cereal & milk pouring. When she is ready, she walks to the top of the staircase and says, "Daddyyyyy! I'm readyyyy! I'm standing at the stationnnnn!"

Then he comes upstairs and picks her up and carries her downstairs.

He does occasionally protest. On the other hand, he started the habit.

But what I think is sweet is that in a very few short years this little routine will have passed by the wayside, but what it leaves behind in each of them will be a great memory that they will probably laugh about on her wedding day.

credit where credit is due

Dear Mr. President,
Thank you for keeping our brave men and women in the Middle East fighting terrorism so that we may live free, and for keeping Guantanamo Bay open, despite your wanting to close up shop there. I hear from the news reports that Bin Laden has been taken down and is no longer a threat. In fact, I hear that he is fish food at this point (burial at sea). Congratulations!
I do not like many of your decisions, nor do I agree with the way you see the future of America, but I sure am thankful for this successful mission and I applaud your decision-making in this matter.
Sincerely,
:o) mg
