* "Man cannot live by bread alone" ... just curious, does that include zucchini bread?
* How 'bout banana bread?
* Since living here, we've gone through (which is the detached way of saying "killed") something like 4 toads.
* I'm thinking of putting up a sign on my front door, "Home Sweet Home, the place where amphibians come to die."
* That will also make it easier for PETA to find me after they read this post.
* Does it make me a good mom or a bad mom that I've allowed Ben to catch and keep two snakes?
* We're pretty sure they're not rattle snakes.
* I'm also pretty sure that I'll need a longer sign for my front door: "...amphibians AND reptiles...".
* Does it make me a good mom or a bad mom that I fed my children zucchini bread for dinner last night?
* At least I kept saying, "Eat your vegetables!!"
* James is having a birthday next Friday.
* I think I'm all done shopping for him.
* Although he did give me another gift idea after I said I was done.
* He has a beard.
* He's a babe with or without a beard!
* I'm pretty sure Ben gets his fascination with and lack of fear of reptiles and amphibians from James.
* I think I'm gonna take my kids to a movie this afternoon.
* I'm doing a terrible job being creative with my kids this summer.
* I have taught them how to sort laundry.
* And make their beds.
* Brianna and I cook together a lot.
* Ben can now make great lemonade,
* and strawberry smoothies.
* And we have had a lot of fun this summer.
* But it's the regular day that is most likely filled with too much TV, too many snacks, jammies for most of the day, etc.
* And for that, I beat myself up regularly.
* It seems like I should have amazing activities planned for every day.
* I should be feeding their minds and their creativity.
* Instead, we're mostly hanging out.
* Hmmm. Never know where random posts will lead.
* Have a great day.
* If not, have a great piece of chocolate!
