Princess Goofy on Her Real Father
July 18, 2012 by · Leave a Comment
You know how kids ask those questions sometimes that kinda knock you off your rocker? Like this week when Princess Goofy asked me how babies get out of tummies. The thing is that she never gives you enough time to answer the question before she answers. Of course she blurted out her version of the answer 5 seconds later and I agreed because it's easier to agree. She also almost always asks these questions in the car, while I'm driving. Yesterday (as I was driving) she said, "Mom, where does my real dad live?" AT this point my brain was saying a thousand times over "whaat? who? … [Read more...]
An Interview With The Girls
June 30, 2012 by · 1 Comment
The other day I recorded these short interviews with the two oldest girls. Don't worry, Princess Newbie makes a few cameos. At the end of the clip you'll hear her going into hysterics. No worries! She has developed a deathly fear of loveable little catepillars (our backyard is covered in them right now!) and she thought there was one sitting in the purple tub with her. But it was just a leaf that looked like a catepillar so crisis adverted. Have a great Saturday, a blessed Sunday and I'll see you guys on Monday. … [Read more...]

Motherhood is having to have that rough talk where you explain to them that all they are doing won't guarantee them success, in fact it's not looking good at all. Seeing the tears in the corners of their eyes and the bravery they are trying to push across their face is heart breaking. Motherhood is hugging them extra tight because you know they want it so bad but it's life, with no guarantees. They are … [Read more...]
Kindergarten Graduation
May 8, 2012 by · 2 Comments
Friday night was a special night in our family. Princess Goofy graduated from kindergarten through our homeschool co-op. They read a little bio of Princess Goofy including her love of having birthday parties for her teddy bears, how she loves to pray and most importantly that she likes being loud. Then Damion got to present her with her diploma and together they walked back off the stage. Honestly I had teared up earlier in the day thinking about her graduating from Kindergarten. Then I was reminded that one day.... there's gonna be high school graduation... and then college... … [Read more...]
