Trunks

What is it about the trunk space of a car that is so alluring to kids?  Mine want to ride in it, hide in it, enter through it, and exit through it!  I can't blame them though.  I remember being so excited as a kid when we sat in the back of our cousins' station wagon ... while it was moving!!

Following Suit

The good news ... Max is starting to spell.  Bad news (for the grandparents) ... His choice of words.

Friday the 13th

While we were walking on a wooden dock, Max tripped on a slat and fell on his hands.  He commented that he keeps tripping so I told him that it's understandable since it's Friday the 13th.  

"Some people believe that this day is unlucky."

Simone overheard and put her two cents in:  "Friday the 13th isn't an unlucky day.  Mondays are unlucky days!"

This girl speaks the truth!

Hello Sun!

We're hoping to be stationed in Key West next so that this will be where we park our bus and call home.

While Mommy's Away

Before I went to the laundry room to retrieve our clean clothes, I instructed the kids to practice their  penmanship.  Max did the lower case "b" and Simone the upper case "A."

Well they finished it alright.  When I returned I saw they had practiced their letters and then some.

Spring in Maryland

Here's our spot in Maryland!  Most days have been cloudy or rainy or the trees didn't have many leaves on them. 

Today finally felt like a picture perfect day!

Scary Stories

When my kids hang out with religious kids at the campground, Simone and Max are introduced to alternative scary stories. 

"There was this guy named 'Damien' and he was inappropriate." 😨
