I cannot imagine having my husband (or dad!) gone for so long. You two are holding it together amazingly well! (But then, I don’t live with you.) (Although I DO wish I lived a lot CLOSER!)

I love pajama mornings. They are the BEST.

I found your blog through my best friend–Samantha i.e. Quaking Aspen—so cute. I would like to know how to make a successful etsy shop. Do you have any pointers? I have posted several pics of my stuff twice and no bites. I get plenty of views, but no one buys anything. I would love any pointers you have.

So glad you get days like this… even with the upsetting moments, nice days can wash away the residue of those so quickly.

I so want to move that mug off the edge of the table. I can see Annalie push out her arm, bump the plate which hits the mug, causing it to fall off the table and break. I can’t help myself. Sorry. Great post and pictures though. Glad you had a good day!

“not letting your temper get the better of you”. I need to remember that one when I’m low on sleep and grumpy.

Ooh, we’re almost finished Farmer Boy, and now I’m debating whether we go right into On the Banks of Plum Creek or whether we should spread the series out a bit and read a different book in between. Glad Annalie is having a better day– it’s quite the age!

Glad to hear that today is better. I would definitely take her up on that Diet Coke, or I would as soon as I finish my coffee!

And today, on Veteran’s Day, thank you to you, Annalie, and your husband Troy for all of your endured sacrifices for the safety of our country. My family completely appreciates every day that your family serves. (And yes, I did mean your family serves.) Thank you so much.

I have a great book I got from Scholastic when I was a teacher called “If You’re Angry and You Know It”. It gives specific suggestions on what you can do when you’re angry and would really rather be pushing, shoving or throwing a tantrum. My almost 4 year old requested I read it to him yesterday and later in the day I heard him tell his 2 year old sister “Don’t do that, if you are angry and you know it…just walk away!” Haha. Now if he could learn to take his own advice. The book is written by Cecily Kaiser, in case you wanted to hunt it up at the library.

Just when you want to throttle them, they go and do something sweet (thank goodness).
