Near and dear to my heart
Every spring, summer and fall Aline laments the amount of shade we have and how poorly it affects the garden harvest. Well this year we’ve decided to embrace the trees and suck some of their life force out of them …. we are making maple syrup. Aline’s dad came over …
It’s a chilly summer night and I want to snuggle up to Aline. She looks at me – please note we’ve been having an ongoing debate about whether or not I snore – and says: I might as well snuggle with a chainsaw. Ouch.
Breakfast conversation between Aline and Hazel this morning: Hazel: You’re wearing underwear. Aline: Yes I am. Hazel: Me too. Hazel: When I’m older I’ll have a baby in my belly. Whoa! Slow down girl!
A mouse took a stroll through the deep dark wood.
A fox saw the mouse and the mouse looked good.
Walk further into the deep dark wood, and discover what happens when the quick-thinking mouse comes face to face with an owl, a snake and a hungry gruffalo . . .
