HENRY: Okay.
VIOLET: What's that, Mom? What's that?
ME: Honey, I can't see what you're pointing at because I'm driving.
VIOLET: But Mom! What is that?
ME: Violet, I can't see what you're looking at, I have to look at the road so we don't get in a crash.

Your kids are adorable!!
what a great talk! wonderful new site, love it!
Thank you! It always pleases me to know you're out there reading from so far away!
Oh that's so cute! Do they try to sing along or do you prefer this be a quiet reflection time? I hope someday you will get one of those videos of the ride in to school. Funny things kids say. Robot vs. Chicken nugget! http://youtu.be/qOInSvMpbNY
Monica, I am really feelin the new design! I just love you guys.
@Niobe19 - Thank you! I do it all myself so it makes me a little self-conscious that it's no fancy pants design, you know?
The new banner...you drew that yourself? That is unique Monique! It reminds me of one of those eraser marker board drawings. You're fun, Girly.
