Who's in Charge?

"Dad, are we almost home?"

"Yes, we're almost home."

"That's good."

"Do you want to be home?"

"I want to be almost home so that if you crash the car and die I can walk home to Mom and she can take care of me the rest of my life.  She's mostly in charge of me, you know."

"I love you, too, Bud."

"Thanks, Dad."

    Ain't it the truth?

    Don't athletes say "Hi, Mom" on camera all the time.

    Sure, they love dad, they need dad - but Mom is generally the one who keeps their undies clean.

    That's right.

    P.S. And a little morbid :)

    You'd think by the 4th kid going through the fascination with death stage I wouldn't have been surprised at this. But it still took me back just a little.

    In addition, who wouldn't love Nancy more?

    That. is awesome! And it's true. Right now, no matter what Splenda tries to do for Chloee, she gives him the big fat no and that "Mimi will do it"

    And inside, I gloat just a little...

I am being published!

I know! It just reeks of excitement, doesn't it?  I know what you are thinking. "Who would publish that woman's thoughts?" The answer is a lovely little outfit called www.blog2print.com. In other words, I haven't been discovered. I am no closer to being a published author than I was yesterday EXCEPT that by Christmas I will be the proud owner of my very own blog book! I know. It's a little anticlimactic but here's the cool part. My friend, Becki, found me entertaining and directed me to a blog called www.josikilpack.blogspot.com.  She posted a little coupon code for 20% off which was supposed to end last week. Apparently, the code is still good and I saved $14. That said, you know it isn't exactly the cheapest way to get published but it's the best price I could find on publishing my blog!  And it requires very little technical know-how.  And that, my friends, tickles my heart.

Wordful Wednesday and Clever Much? Rarely!

Sometimes my brilliance blinds me! Speaking of brilliance, before we continue this discussion, if you are my mother in law, stop reading. Walk away. At least until after Christmas. Seriously. My own mother doesn't read my blog. I think it has something to do with words like "socially awkward" and "mortifying." She knows me. She doesn't have to read about me. She can just pretend like I turned out normal. Anyway, if the mother-in-law has exited the website, check out what she's getting for Christmas! TADA! I'd like to give a special shout out to the internet and whatever site I was cruising through last week for planting this idea into my head. Usually not this creative and I definitely don't know where I got the energy to take the kids out for pictures. Or go to Walmart for the frame. And Robert's for the mat. Costco for the pictures.  Yeah, I painted the frame, too. So not my style. Anymore. I also ordered a canvas print for my husband but I...
