Calculating my strength to hold on a little longer.
She pushes [...]

Not Me Monday~Is That A Peanut? 11-23-09

November 23, 2009

I did not feed my youngest two cheese balls, oatmeal and milk for lunch one day.
I did not get understandably tired of telling Ben not to eat snow that’s been lying on the ground for the last week and a half. I did not succumb to the third child lax and decide that if [...]
