I didn’t take Jay to the doctor at his 4-year because I decided to wait and do him and Ada’s yearly check-up at the same time. For school paperwork, his last check-up needs to be within 6 months of me filing out said paperwork, and if I had taken him around his birthday, it would [...]

Around 9:00pm, Jay came into our room to share his brilliant solution to stopping the snot that had been plaguing him all day: he shoved a bead up his nose to keep it in. Wonderful! After a quick look with a flashlight and a failed attempt to get it with tweezers, Mac hauled him to [...]

I know most like to freshen up for Spring. I like to freshen up for Autumn as well. The kids’ closet was emptied today. A few large stuffed animals that were in there and not played with were set aside for Goodwill. Jay’s extra low bar was installed. Hanging clothes have been sorted through. Summer [...]

I had the kids bring some paper to the table before dinner was ready. Jay loves to draw things to gift me. He should at least be drawing bodiless people by now. If I ask him to draw me a shape, he will. On his own, just scribbles. We set out to do some drawing [...]

After a brief rest, I am back to hauling kids to a class. That’s right. Kids. Today Jay made his debut. The nice part is Ada and Jay’s class were available back to back. They are both taking a tumbling class. I wanted to get a run in now in my brief break before I [...]
