I’m feeling slothful and uninspired at the moment. I even whined to Cute W that I didn’t know what to post tonight.

Where we go overboard is with the cake and the crafts. This year, J said that she wanted a fairy party and the first thing out of M’s mouth … [Read more…]

We so completely deserved that rainbow, didn’t we? I mean, seriously, we made it through a lot of rain. I was over-volunteering at elementary school today, … [Read more…]
