I have a confession to make cyberspace. I am not a big Halloween fan. As a kid I wasn’t really one to like to dress up silly and go door to door to people I didn’t know. I would have preferred just to go to the store and by the candy I liked and sit… Continue reading Halloween

Fall Break is over.
As fall break comes to a close, just an update, I did love being home and I did not want to go back to work. I had the best time getting to know my children a little better. I realized Lauren feels dark chocolate is superior to milk chocolate in every way and that lime… Continue reading Fall Break is over.
Oh, St. Louie!
Our most recent road trip has taught me a few things. First of all, I learned there are TONS of free things to do in good old St. Louis that kids love. There is the zoo. We spent an entire 8 hours there and I think the kids would have ridden that darn train they… Continue reading Oh, St. Louie!
A week off
The kids are on fall break for 2 weeks. For the first week I get to stay home with them. Since I work part-time I typically do not get a whole week at home, let alone with all three of them. I have been excited for this week for a while. I know most of… Continue reading A week off
You make pretty things!
Today I have been thinking about the funny things that my kids do that at the time I am not sure are so funny. First, my daughter, who thinks her fashion sense is superior to any other, dressed in all navy for school today, except for her purple socks and black tennis shoes. Oh and… Continue reading You make pretty things!
He’s no dummy!
As I may have mentioned before, my 5-year-old son Aaron is full of surprises. He certainly has some of my stubbornness and sarcastic sense of humor. He told a friend that gets him on the bus that he was not getting on the bus, when she started to get stern with him about going he… Continue reading He’s no dummy!
Fall
Hello out there. I have decided today I am going to vent to cyberspace about Fall, or as some of you prefer-Autumn. First of all, even though I LOVE fall (I think it has to be the best season around). The pesky bees and other bugs go hide somewhere. The leaves change colors and there… Continue reading Fall
The joys of parenthood
Friday night was not a good night at the Gary house. I had made the mistake of taking advantage of the wonderful weather and walked to the bus stop to pickup the kids (it’s an 8 minute walk home). Aaron got off the bus in a less than great mood and was immediately disobeying and… Continue reading The joys of parenthood
Growing Pains
Today I am thinking about growing up. When I was learning to drive my dad told me it is always important to look ahead and know what is happening up ahead so you can anticipate any potential obstacles and avoid accidents. He said most people only look right in front of them. That is very… Continue reading Growing Pains
A New Beginning
Look, I have a blog! I have decided to step in the 21st century and write a blog. I am not going to pretend in any way to be the funniest person, or the best writer, but I thought I still had some things to share that someone may find interesting. If nothing else my… Continue reading A New Beginning
