not for the faint at heart (seriously)

i am totally addicted to reading dooce
i like her style. she's an amazing writer. she also has mad photog skills.
so, anyway, she recently wrote a post with a link to a news story from florida. i will warn you...this story involves a disgusting case of child abuse and neglect. however, it is an amazing story.
here's the link to heather's post

and, seriously, go hug your kids.

the wait is over

well, grandma jingly keys has officially moved in. things are going as well as can be expected so far. we're all going to have to adjust to 1. another person and 2. another person who has different needs than the rest of us. of course, captain adventure had adjusted himself right into gram's lap at 5:00 this morning. he came downstairs wearing nothing but a pull-up and said, "i so cold gamma jingly keys". so, she opened up her blanket and invited him in...he willingly accepted her offer. that's where mom found them when she came down at 6.

i hope gram doesn't mind that her every move is going to be watched and shared by 3 little ones. i think it's pretty cool.

got the mondays?

check this out. it'll make your monday blahs go away. seriously.
