This week needs to end... pronto. I have 6 kids here from age 2-8 everyday and I am ready to strangle the nearest one, whoever that may be. Ironically, the one that you would think would be the hardest to handle, the 2 year old, is the best.

Another friend of her's missed it too so she ran up there and they … [Read more...]

This is much to the dismay of the kids' mother, but I don't care. I went with their aunt Michelle last night to tell Susan about the cancer. Their phone was … [Read more...]
