Make Outdoor Fitness Fun

If you're looking for ways to get fit as a family, check out my article "Make Outdoor Fitness Fun" in this month's Genesee Valley Parent Magazine. I've done the obstacle course with "kids" of ALL ages, and we've had a blast!

Enjoy summer!!!

Memo to Self

If, while standing in line at the post office, you ask a nearly-four year-old whether or not she remembered to put panties on this morning, she will lift her dress to her chin to show you whether or not she remembered. Whether she remembered or not.

My Apprentice

"Mom, Mom... please don't disturb my work. I'll talk to you later."

OK, Babe. I won't disturb your work.

"Mom, Mom... do you want to know what work I'm doing?"

Yes, I'd love to know. What work are you doing?

"I'm doing my writing work. I'm working very, very hard to do very good writing work. Do you want to know why?"

I'd love to know why.

"So I can be a good writer just like you, Mama. And then... and then... if I work really hard and be a good writer like you, we can write things together. Right, Mama?"

We already do, Baby. We already do.

Pardon me while my heart bursts.
