did you know...

. . . that there is a worm in the dirt in the germ on the flea on the hair on the wart on the frog on the bump on the log on the hole in the bottom of the sea?

Didn't think so.

Didn't know that. But did you know that the Preacher all shaven and shorn, married the man all tattered and torn to the maiden all forlorn, that milked the cow with the crumpled horn, that tossed the dog, that worried the cat, that killed the rat that ate the malt that lay in the house that Jack built.

I may actually (albeit vaguely) have known that once upon a time!

I've been teaching this to Jake, but he just doesn't get why all that junk is important to me or why it should be to him.

I'm glad to see it's important to yoU!

I sang this to Jordan the other day. Ten minutes after my non-stop singing the best she could come up with was...

"That's a LONG song!"

She has asked me to sing the "hole" song a few times since then. It's a toss-up between this one and "there's a hole in my bucket." She tried to run away near the end of that one, but I made her stay and listen and at the end when Liza tells Henry to fetch water in the bucket I said "But...." and looked at Jordan expectantly and she came up with "There's a hole in the bucket!!" all on her own. I was never so proud. lol.

That's pretty impressive that she came up with "there's a hole in the bucket"! So cute. It amazes me sometimes at how much they actually do pay attention.

I find it funny that the shortest little nothing-post gets the most comments!

two things: one to do with running, the other with my fastly-deteriorating fashion sense

I've started running again. I'm not sure if I ever "officially" stopped, but I only ran twice in August, totalling about nine miles, so I kind of felt like when I restarted in September that I was, well, restarting. This is probably not even blog-worthy. It would probably be better served disappearing into the chasm that is facebook, but I need blog topics, so here it is. I once had a friend (coughcoughangelacough) who said that she didn't run outside because she was afraid that just maybe, she ran "funny," and people would see her. Being an awesome friend, I insisted that surely she didn't. I lied. I have never even seen her run. I have just recently decided that she does run funny. Wanna know why? (as if spell check didn't underline 'wanna') Everyone runs funny. Quite seriously, everyone . I prefer to run outside, because the treadmill sucks my will to live, and a mile or two in I turn into a sighing, eye-rolling teenager, o

MIA

No, my secret alias is not Mia. MIA = missing in action. I have been avoiding posting on here. Why? Because I don't have a ton of stuff to write about. Also, I've discovered that my blog is being followed by a couple of people I'm not related to. Although I'm super excited about it, I'm also a little intimidated! Sounds silly, I know. Hear me out. You know how you can be a teenager (I'm not a teenager, we're just being hypothetical) and have big thick coke bottle glasses, zits all over your face, big baggy pants and a baggy sweatshirt hiding the rolls hidden underneath and a perm that went very very wrong and is now only curly on ONE SIDE and your mom still tells you you're beautiful and she'd love to trade faces with you? You know how that feels? You don't have to question it too much, because she's your mom and you know she's probably a little biased. Blogging is a little like that. Until now, only my friends have read my blog. I coul

christmas time's a coming

Only 23 days until Christmas! Remember when we were kids, and Christmas was all about time off school, lots of treats (chocolate, candy canes, oranges, turtles!), new Christmas dresses for the church concert, lights, music, decorations, noisy and exciting gatherings at Grandma's house, Christmas episodes of our favorite tv shows and of course presents! The list goes on and on. I still find Christmas exciting. Yet, now the season holds more than just the "fun" stuff. Now we have to worry about scheduling in all the different families and parents, buying gifts we can't necessarily afford, making dishes to bring to the different gatherings, hoping that people will understand that we need to share the holidays with many others, and hoping that nobody will be hurt if our time with them is short. I wonder if I'm doing a good job of making the holidays fun and enjoyable for my kids, and if I've bought the right gifts. I worry about what five days in a row of late ni
