    Oh hey, we have that very same apron. Painting’s a good rainy day activity.Creative solution: 10 points for mom!

    Oh, and I didn’t mean Weight Watchers points, though I don’t know about you, but I tend to consume about 10 extra on rainy afternoons.

    Sweet! Shame on you, Mom, for trying to distract an artist at work! 😉

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
