The other night Grant comes into the living room and plops onto the couch. He looks over at me and says, “I want to meet Jesus.” This throws me. In the matter of about 2 seconds, the following questions flash through my head: Is 9:00 on a school night the time to have a conversation about […]
Happy Mother’s Day, from Wisenheimer #1.
I am still washing champagne flutes and working on my post about Mother’s Day Brunch. In the meantime, I wanted to share one of the Mother’s Day greetings I received…. Yep. That is a tack/push-pin, and the note is pinned to the wall. Any woman who gave birth, adopted, is a step-parent or a mentor/mother […]

The Easter Claus…. Or Santa Bunny… (Either way, it’s all kinds of wrong.)
Scene: My house. My parents stopped in for a quick visit. The boys are talking with their Gramma about upcoming Easter events. Grant: “…And will we do an Easter egg hunt at your house?” Gramma: “Yes! Of course! And what do you boys want the Easter Bunny to bring you for Easter?” Me: “Mom! The […]
Some people exist just so that they can serve as a warning to others…

My child is emotionally self-sufficient…
If no one comments on the school work that Grant does… … he’ll just go ahead and high-five himself. Good job!
Corsa The Guilty Dog can give Denver The Guilty Dog a run for his money.
Last week a video of a dog named Denver went viral because the guilty look on his face gave him away as the culprit when someone (besides the cat) ate the cat’s treats. Been there, done that, have the T shirt. I’ve mentioned previously how our dog, Corsa, gives herself away with the Guilty Smile […]
A matter of taste.
Grant asked for a quesadilla for lunch. I made him one and added a little side of tortilla chips. Grant: “These chips are too spicy.” Me: “The chips…? The chips are too spicy..?!” Grant: “Yes.” Me: “Not the quesadilla… but the chips are too spicy..?” Grant: “Yes.” Me: “You’re weird.” Grant: (slightly confused) “I thought […]
No symbolism here.
Conner has been needling Grant and just bugging his little brother in general. Grant got some scrap paper and drew a picture for Conner. I am thinking Grant is getting tired of Conner’s antics. I am also thinking that if Grant invites Conner to the beach, Conner should decline the invitation.
Table manners. It’s what’s for breakfast.
It’s a school morning. I have a cup of coffee and am sitting in the living room, making fun of Meredith Viera’s LACK of interviewing prowess. From the living room I can see into our dining room… You know those heavy earth moving/construction vehicles that have a claw and can grab big scoops of earth […]
