Big Boys Don't Cry

Frank and Logan were playing catch after dinner last night. Frank was in the catchers position with his mit by his face, and Logan was practicing his pitch. I walked outside to tell Frank something so he turned to me and Logan threw the ball anyway...clocked frank right in the forehead (we were a little proud that he finally threw a good pitch!). Blood was gushing immediately. I took him to the instacare where they gave him 6 stitches! We think it was the threads that gashed it so bad - it's all jagged like Harry Potter :) Logan was pretty upset, and really worried about his dad. Logan's putty in his hands now, and Franks totally taking advantage...

Trek'n Good Time!

We did it! The long dreaded/awaited trek is OVER! Frank and I were asked to be Ma & Pa last November. We had 10 kids - they called us Mamma Bear, and Pappa Bear :) They were my little bear cubs. When we met "our kids", they were strangers. As soon as they called me "mom", the were MINE :) It was really weird like that. The dynamic was just like a real family with very different personalities. We had tons of fun....would I do it again? Hmmmmmmmm.....


OF COURSE!
