I had the following thoughtful conversation with my 4-year-old when we got home from running errands today: Him: Mommy, do dogs get old and die? Me: Yes. Him: Do people get old and die? Me: Yes. Him: People use food to grow up, so I don’t want to eat food and grow old and die. [...]

I’ve had a slight cold for the last couple of days which, while it hasn’t been too horrible, has been a great excuse to park myself on the sofa and knit. I cast this hat on Sunday afternoon and finished it last night. [ravelry] This was a great knit, fast and fun, a treat, especially [...]

Isaac had to have two baby teeth extracted the other day so you know what that means–a visit from the tooth fairy! For some reason, our tooth fairy thought it would be a fun and good idea if she left superfine glitter fairy dust all over the sink in the bathroom (also, the floor). Why [...]
