Seven Dwarf's Follow-up
Well ... I asked my son what the point was of buying the dwarf bananas and he said, "The awesomeness of them. And they're portable," he exclaimed, in a very exhilarated voice. And then he grabbed one of the tiny bananas. I said, "All bananas are portable. He then said, "These are ... pocket-portable," and he stuck it in his pocket…

I Want Her Life
Not too long ago, I went into The Twins' room and on Twin B's desk, I saw a piece of paper with her writing on it. When I looked at it closer I saw that it was a "Need to Watch" list. The child had made herself a list of the shows she "needed" to watch on TV (that included: Ugly Betty, Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Brother…

Ducklings in a Row
Sometimes I see how little ducks follow behind their mother - eight or ten ducklings in a row; they seldom stray. They follow where she goes; all those little ducklings, and I never hear them quack a word - they just follow.That's the ways I imagine it should be. Not the silence so much (while that would be a welcome change around…
