Quote-of-the-Day

Nicky: 'Holy Cow' is okay to say, right?

Me: Yes.

Nicky: But 'Holy FREAKIN' Cow' isn't, right?

Me: (Gasp!) Right, Honey.

Note to Self: Talk to Maddy

Camel: The Other White Meat

Going on 3 hours of sleep and just having completed a cross-country training run--

"I am so thirsty, I could eat a camel!"

Quote-of-the-Day

"We often compare our Weaknesses to others' Strengths."
--unknown to me

I heard this recently, wrote it down, and have since heard it many times. I guess I really needed to hear it and now I really need to let it sink in.

Why is it that we can dwell so much on our own weaknesses and on others' stengths?

Red Hot!

"Mom, I love you with the red-hot intensity of a thousand suns."

Is that a great kid, or what? :) Okay, so maybe she said it with a joke in her voice, but I ran to the computer and blogged it as my quote-of-the-day just as fast as my little feet could carry me!

The Facts of LIfe

Nicky: Mom, was I born? Mom, was I born? Mom, was I born?...

Me: (tuning into the incessant chatter...) What?

Nicky: Mom, was I born?

Me: Yes.

Nicky: (to Lilly) Lilly, I was born. True story.
