Chewymom

Ben said this after Chewydad offered Sally a popsicle if she would let him pull her tooth tonight.

Ben said this as he plopped his head onto the new kitchen scale.

Brig, always mindful of crocodiles, and a bit terrified of them, just checking before we walked off of our cruise ship onto Mexican soil.

Ben said that as we passed a few elderly ladies putting the finishing touches on the cross in front of their church this Easter morning. Ya know, I’ve never given it much thought, but it is a little odd when you look at it that way….

Saly marched in the front door an announced this to me after she had been playing at a friend’s house. This would sound perfectly normal until you realize that Ollie is the dog. Grace is the friend. Apparently Grace had on a Tigger costume, and Ollie was grabbing the tail.

Sally said this after she had told me that a girl at school said, “I’m going to get my Daddy to beat you up!” And I responded with, “Huh???”

Ahhhh, that blurry line between truth and fantasy….

Ben said that to me when he was trying to talk to me while I was writing on the computer. I told him to HOLD ON a second, because I can’t do two things at once. That was his reply. Smarty pants.

My friend said this to me today as we sat and watched our sons play soccer in 30-something degree rain. I cannot tell you how miserable we were, and we had coats, hats, gloves, scarves. The players had only Under Armor, jerseys, shorts, socks, and shin-guards to keep them warm.

And to think, yesterday we enjoyed a windy, 75-degree afternoon of soccer.

Twenty-four hours and forty degrees make a big difference in the enjoyment of a soccer game!

A man in the grocery store check-out line who seemed shocked by the amount of groceries I was buying, and even more shocked at the number of mouths I feed!

Sally’s comment after she stuck tweezers into an electrical outlet.

Tickled, eh? And now the outlet is dead.
