Thoughts

We have ear infections. There are 8 ears in our house. Three are infected. Not good...not good at all.

Lots of holding and cuddling. Lots of calm words. Lots of pudding. When your ear is sick your tummy feels bad, too. So, you can eat as much chocolate pudding as you want. My 1 year old will take 2 please. She'd like them at breakfast, lunch and dinner. But we have standards. You can only have so much pudding before someone shows up at your front door and screams in "feed the kid a vegetable, will 'ya!"

It's warming up in Central Texas. Welcome Spring! We missed you. Don't stay away so long next time.

Sam's worms are still living, but I know they are suffering. Should I care about suffering worms? I don't. Should I feel bad about that? I don't.

I'm feeling creative. Planting the spring garden this weekend. That should help. I like writing fragments of sentences but putting a capital letter at the beginning and a period at the end. We should love fragments, too.

I hate rules. I have to work on that. My kids hate rules, too. I need them to like rules.

5 years of wedded bliss. Why do people say 'wedded bliss'? Truth is it's been wedded exciting, boring, wonderful, trying, empowering, fearful, 'hang on for dear life', 'can you believe we did that' and 'lets do it all over again!" Bliss is too simple and overly wonderful. Sometimes the most wonderful part of it all is hidden in the most awful part of it all. That's weird, isn't it? And this paragraph is weird and tragic with all the grammatical errors. Should I care about that? I don't.
