Aidan’s QOTD

As the boys were getting their shoes on to start the day, Aidan has this great revelation about females.

Aubrey

“When Aubrey is a boy, she can wear shoes; but she’s a girl, so she eats dog food.”

Well said, Aidan.  Well said.

Natural conditioners

Oliver has a knack for finding natural conditioners in foods…

Avocado in his guacamole for extra moisturizing and shine!

Excuse the color and the blur.  Some little [...]

On the crafty front…

Mama ran short on [...]

Wrapping up May
