My Funny Little Guy

Devon just turned three. He is just like most 3-year-olds: inquisitive, playful, silly, stubborn, and sometimes obnoxious. Today, though, he has been my lovey. All day long, he kept saying, "Mommy, I love you," which is sweet, but in classic this-is-definitely-my-kid form, he said something that topped all of that.

I was laying on my side, playing with Devon and the baby. Devon climbed over my hip, kissed me on the backside, and said, "Mommy, I love you's big bottom." Gotta love it!

First Blog Post... Ever (No, really, I'm not kidding!)

So, I have resisted this for, hmm, I don't know, 15 years, maybe? The mere mention that I should have a blog made my toes curl (and not in a good way). Like I have time for that! And, yet, here I sit, typing my first post ever.

Why so long? Well, I guess it's because I'm stubborn. Don't get me wrong; I love to read others' blogs, especially about cool things they create and do with their families. But when it came to writing my own, all I could think was, "What would I write?"

Well, I guess I'll write whatever comes to mind: funny things the kids say, observations we make, things we discover, joys and tears along the way. I'll even be honest and share when I'm not feeling like a very good mom! That does happen, sometimes, a lot.

Hopefully, someone besides me will gain some insight, or at least be entertained!

Welcome, and Thank You!
