“Mama’s being a jerk.” Yeah, well… there are usually two sides to the story Papa, and you’re only getting one. So, in front of Bugz I asked her father if she’d explained to him why I was behaving as I was. He indicated her explanation was, “Mama didn’t respond”. It was an excellent opportunity to […]
How to Keep Your Tiara in Place
And if that gets tiring… She made a house for the resident fairies this day…
Super Dead Fish
Jessica, the 7 year old gold fish ($.12 feeder) is dead. BUT… Take heart.. She’s not just dead… She’s SUPER DEAD! Lily identified the fish as, well, not breathing nor moving a couple of mornings ago. We’d expected this and moved her to her own tank for the duration. She was rather old, […]

And then there are the creatures and critters she tends to all day long. This kid thinks of everything – she feeds, nurses, dresses, swaddles, […]
Scenes and Something
Yesterday we endeavored to create a theatre for Lily to direct a few scenes with the Yo Gabba Gabba crew! I think it took me probably 3 hours to get it all together, but once complete, she had 4 lands/scenes and 5 characters. She instantly started assigning which characters belong in which land. She had […]
Great, Great Grandma Forbes Wears Again!
Grandma & Grandpa (Russ’s side) gave Lily a sweater this Christmas that came from deep within the family. Mary Forbes made Russ a sweater many years ago and now, Bugz is wearing it. She is aware that Papa’s great grandma made it for him, and her rationalization was, “So, it’s really old”. She comprehends the […]
Of Christmas Past
Lily let me put the christmas tree away. 🙂 She did all of that.
