Addicted to the Library?


I have a problem. Every time I go to the library I leave with a pile of books that is almost
too difficult to carry.
I just can't help myself.
Today when I placed my enormous pile of books on the desk for check out, the librarian looked at me straight faced, and said,
"you know you can come back, right?"
Yes. I know. I think I have a problem.

Sadly, this pile of laundry has been sitting here on the floor for one week, waiting to be done...
maybe tomorrow?

Making new (best) friends at Jump Zone! I wish it was as easy for adults to just see someone around our approximate age, approach them to play, and instantly become best friends!

Earth Man


On our way to Juliana's preschool this morning, we saw this sign in front of a local church.

Juliana looked at it and said to me, "that must be a picture of Earth Man."

I responded, saying, "really, what makes you think so?"

To which Juliana answered, "because I learned about the Earth at school, and Mrs. Corneil showed us a map like that."

Well then.

I just want to say one thing-kudos to Mrs. Corneil! Apparently whatever you are doing, it's working!
