In a Toddler Mind for About 5 Minutes
As I watch my toddler, Ashley, move about her day, I can’t help but wonder what goes through her little toddler mind. The things she does and things she says can be baffling as well as cute, sweet, and completely frustrating all at the same time. She is lovingly destructive and sweetly irritating, causing me [...]
Dogs, Clogs, and Date Night Dialogue
The day started out pretty normal. I got the boys up and ready for school, came home and had my essential cup pot of coffee. Derek and Ashley got up soon after, and so I fed them and got them ready for the day. Jason’s car has some sort of metal on metal grinding sound, [...]
Poop!
I know I promised not to do this very often, but I just have to do another post about poop. One of the hardest things about having four small kids and two pups is how much poop is required to be dealt with. My two older boys aren’t really the offenders except for a few [...]
When Brothers Fight
It is crazy how brothers fight, you know it? Having three boys is great. I wouldn’t trade it for the world, and I really mean that. It is not that I have anything against girls, I am sure I would feel the same way if I had three girls, I just don’t. My daughter is [...]

When Your Husband Works Nights
Having four kids and two puppies is hard enough, but when you throw in the fact that my husband works nights right now, the stress levels reach massive proportions. Today is no exception. It is really difficult to keep the house quiet enough for him to get some rest during the day. The kids just [...]
Ode to the Puppies
You were three weeks old When we brought you home. You could barely walk Or eat on your own. Little balls of fur So kind and sweet. Cuddled up in a ball On the floor by my feet. I would feed you milk Three times a day, And teach you to sit, Shake hands, and [...]
Oh Poop! More Poop!
OK, seriously? I am soooo sick of poop! I clean poop off my floors, I clean poop off my baby, I smell poop coming from the garbage. I find poop everywhere. I smell poop all the time, even after it has been cleaned up. I swear the smell of poop is permanently pasted to the [...]
