Snippets

Things that make me remember why I love my family:

The Bear, while out on a pre-dinner walk around the neighborhood: "Mom, if I didn't get some fresh air today I was going to POP! Like a balloon!"

And later, during a discussion of whether or not it was going to rain tonight: "I like to hear rain at night. It rocks me to sleep."

She's so very sweet. It's not easy working full time and raising two kids, but moments like these make it a hell of a lot easier.
