I am the Mom, I make the rules. I don't have to tell you 3 reasons why you have to take a nap. I don't have to argue with you about why you are grounded. I don't have to defend my position. I don't have to make you another dinner because you don't like what I already made. I do have to tell you how much I love you. I do have to teach you how to be polite and use good manners. I do have to teach you what is right. I do have to read you stories and sing songs to you. I have enough things "TO DO" and doing the afore mentioned things is not on my list! This is not a democracy!
Today I told my kids, "I am the Mom dang it, and I make the rules!" They thought it was hilarious, even Chas laughed......... I didn't! What do I have to do around here!? Good thing I love these little rugrats of mine, or I would have quite this 24-7 job a long time ago, but at the end of the day they are worth it! Little potlickers!
ps (I just had to put potlicker in! I haven't heard that "term of endearment" for a long time, but in Vanderhoof it's a common saying and now it makes me laugh every time I hear it, reminds me of when I was young!)

Brooklyn or Emree?
Just thought you all might like to see how much Brooklyn and Emree look alike, its kind of scary actually! Especially that Emree wears all the clothes that Brooklyn used to wear, I better make sure I get the right name to the right picture in the scrapbooks...well photo albums anyway. This is Brooklyn when she was 10 months old!
First day of School!
My Pride and Joy!
Next to my kids this is my pride and joy, I love working in the garden! Chas likes it too, he doesn't have to weed! Actually he always takes care of the kids while I spend time there. It's so nice!
What a handsome boy!
Achoo!
