We brought the boys home last night, so we’ve now had them for a day. Here are some observations: Some things are universal (and no, not talking healthcare here, folks). Some words, some facial expressions..but also things like 12 year-old boys are pretty much the same the world over. It’s that sorta clumsy, awkward stage.Kung [...]

This past weekend, Sammy and I headed up toward Bellingham for some one-on-one time, some camping, and some sea kayaking. As it turned out, the weather wasn’t exactly on our side. We got to the campground late Friday afternoon, got set up, ate, relaxed, and went to bed. Then it rained. Pretty much the rest [...]

So with JoAnn and Mika gone camping, it’s been just me and the three youngest. And so far, there’ve been no emergencies, no injuries, no blood…things have been pretty calm. Maddie went to sleep last night without issue, slept all night, and woke up happy. Joshie slept all night without any “bad dreams”. We’ve played [...]

With Maddie threatening to be potty trained before Joshie is finished, we’ve been prodding and slightly pushing Joshie about his progress. Lately, it’s been this: “Joshie, when are you going to start wiping yourself?” His answer, consistently: “When I’m ten”. Ummm…no. I don’t think so.

But the laptop is my lifeblood, so I need a replacement. Another custom-configured Lenovo looked like it would [...]
