These two were not around today


You did not see these two today. Maybe there were brief (like two) moments but otherwise this kid was miserable. You know, a miserable kid pretty much the whole evening. What is up with those nights?
Things he cried about: school is boring, didnt want mama to leave him at school, a splinter, spilled drink, no drink, spilled ice cream, cold after bath, hungry, too full, bath water too cold, soap in eyes, laughed at Harrison, missed daddy, couldn't make a choice, backpack was too heavy, music was too loud, Harrison was looking at him, etc.
Really, I promise I was not torturing the kid, but I sure feel like he was torturing me.
It is now 8:12 pm and both are asleep. Mama is going to bed too. Send me thoughts of a happy kid and a cleared up sinus infection.

At Last

This made me cry. I am not a huge beyonce fan (in fact, I dont think I have any of her songs on my ipod) but this song and her interview made me cry happy tears. If you didnt see it, take a moment; I think it is touching.
Many, many years ago, BK (before kids), Shuan and I saw Etta James on Valentines night at the Carver center. Hearing, At Last, brought back happy memories and made me smile.

Crazy week











We went from a cooking class on Saturday at Central Market to the ER Saturday night for my mom. She had emergency back surgery and was in the ICU for 4 days. It was awful. She is home now. Between that, work, wild boys and other daily drama things have been busy. Plus I cant figure out how to make my flip video into quick time so I can upload it to my blog...so I have been blog boycotting. Here are some old bath pics to make you (and me) smile. Miss you guys.
