Time Out

for her critters until Maggie is done with her school work. Tears were shed.

Easter at Sorley's

Bubbles

Grandma reads Hans Christian Andersen (unedited). The kids were not scarred.

Crazy photo time just before we left.

Aspirations

I've given much of the morning to the family - helping the Littles get ready and breakfasted.  I did the dishes, then sat down with them for a bit of homeschool.  I was ready for a few minutes with the computer to find a project regarding Easter, and maybe request books for our next Country unit.  As I'm sitting at the computer, Maggie is bellowing for me; "MOM!"

She'd used the potty and needed cleaning up.  After cleaning her up, she states; "Mom, you're the best mom of cleaning up poop."

If you feel like a crappy parent, maybe your aspirations are too high ....
