Joe & Jem: What did the Spartan warrior say as he dove off the sinking Titanic? (Never mind the historical inaccuracies here and be warned that the following is very middle school boy humor)

“The icier the water, the better!”

* * * * * * *

Mommy (having discovered an unsightly little wart on the underside of Felicity’s thumb): “Felicity, honey, you have to tell Mommy when you find something weird on your body.”

Felicity: “Sometimes when I find something weird I like to keep it a secret.”

* * * * * * *

Angela: “I’m mad of you!” (Who needs the appropriate preposition when you can sound so cute without it?)

* * * * * * *

Also Angela: When you share your pop you obey God. (Does this mean that not sharing my Godiva chocolate is a sin?)

Happy Monday, everyone!

Ad Jesum per Mariam,

    Ah…a fellow chocolate lover. I have so many places that I hide my chocolate from my family that sometimes I forget where I put it!

    And when I find some that has been hidden….what treasure!

    Felicity is going to be quite the handful when she’s hitting the teen years… 🙂

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. ♥
