It would be impossible!
Ok, I'm caught up on your posts now. Great haircut! You kinda look like Donna from That 70's Show!
I can relate to your fears. My biggest is my death. Not my death itself but the sadness that my family will suffer, especially my husband and children.

Oh what a sweet little fella. Totally can see how it is impossible to be upset with that. But trust me it does get easier.

Course you can forgive that! How's he feeling? Thanks for your sweet comment. Today was better. I'm taking some time off from mom, which sounds awful, but helps. We've been together A LOT lately. When do you go to Virginia?

Don't you love how they do that? I swear, they must have a secret manual on "how to keep mommy from not losing her mind." step 1 is look innocent and cute at least 60% of the time.

Oh I can only imagine if our boys got together. The house wouldn't be able to handle it, but they would have fun.

lol. That's my little boy as well! Total terror and a whirlwind of chaos when he's away. And when he's asleep, I can't believe he just tore up the living room!
You have a cutie for sure!

They look so much sweeter when they are sleeping! Just makes you want to squish them, doesn't it?

Yeah sure. I've got one of those 'cute as a button when they're asleep' children and yet she can cause HAVOC when she's awake.
I think it's an inbuilt defence mechanism they employ to keep us calm!

Oh, the cuteness. The utter adorableness. Those cheeks! I'm melting!

When our kiddo was younger, DH and I used to joke that it wasn't "survival of the fittest" but "survival of the cutest" LOL!

Congrats on being the featured blogger today - hope you get doused in commenty love!

You can't and I believe its God's built in protections for them. Wait until he's 3. He's really going to need the cuteness factor then!

I was just told by a family member that my kids are "angels." And then he added, "When they are sleeping."

Yeah, um, thanks!

My husband likes to quote the line from the Adam Sandler Movie "Big Daddy" about how kids are great as long as they're sleeping or not moving.
Yes, they're angels when they're passes out like that...but yours is pretty darn cute even when he's up to mischief! So glad I found you from SITS!

Oh man! The midget LOVES tearing apart Kleenex! I was cooking dinner one night and she found a box and pulled out the ENTIRE box and shredded about half of it. I should always know when there is quiet--there is trouble going on!

I have a similar, um, issue. How can I be mad at Monkey when he's throwing macaroni in the air when he's giggling and saying "Happy! Happy!" like it's confetti?

It IS amazing what cute little angels can accomplish, isn't it??? At some point, we've decided we will have to put shelves on the top 1/3 of our walls just to keep that kind of stuff AWAY from our girls!!! At least Kleenex cleans up easily...

The Way Back (movie trailer + 2 comebacks + a giveaway)

  It's been so long since I've sat here at my computer and wrote something other than an email. It's been even longer since I've written anything besides a book review. It's just been a funky year or two, but I hope to be back more regularly. Hopefully with less filler (although I don't even know if book reviews are filler for me because books are just a big part of my life, but I plan to be even pickier about what I read and share now) and more about the testimonies God is teaching me in every day life. However, this is not the week for that; too many things on my plate.   In light of my comeback as a writer (fingers crossed), I thought I'd share an upcoming movie with you about another comeback. The Way Back is a Warner Bros. film starring Ben Affleck (Good Will Hunting, that awful Justice League movie, that one movie about Boston thieves that I won't recommend because the language and some content was awful but it was a well-made film). The movie it...

Big A is forever telling me to not say certain things on the road. Don't call me dear. Don't gasp or shout; I'll think there's a deer. Although these are paraphrased (and he claims he's never said the first one), these are the basis for this tale. We went to the Husker game last night. Scratch that - we worked at the Husker game last night. We helped his aunt (and her church) sell backrests as a fundraiser. Big A has done this most of last year & all of this year so far. He loves it. You sell backrests until kickoff, then you watch the game, and pick up the rests after. You're there 90 minutes before game time and for about an hour or so after the game. And you sometimes get leftover food (Runzas and hotdogs and popcorn - please fine out what a Runza is for those of you who aren't from Nebraska....it's so yummy!). Anyway...we went to the game & a few of our friends helped pick up the chairs voluntarily after so (with that help plus our amazing sp...
