    Wow! Will you be making those jello jigglers like last year? We might make those cupcakes…

    Many blessings on Anthony's special day, easy to remember, the day after the 4th!

    I say, don't be ashamed of the overdue library books. Consider the fines you pay to be your contribution to the upkeep of the library. They depend on those late fees, you know! šŸ™‚

    I'm crushed that you were up in my neck of the woods for swim camp and didn't meet me at Caribou or Panera! Can we squeeze a playdate in this summer?

    I sometimes think vacations are over-rated … I really just wanted to stay home this weekend(and do NOTHING, I might add). Oh well.

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. ♄
