Proof Positive


We got to take the classroom dog "Happy Pappy" home for the weekend. Boy did he/she have adventures! Happy Pappy endured a trip to Sea World where you will see 'proof positive' that Katie Mei is officially tall enough at almost age 5 to ride Shamu (you have to hit the bottom of the blue line to ride with an adult).....but Happy Pappy had to sit in the stroller and watch. He was much, much too short and not nearly as brave as Katie. BTW......Leni was 42 inches tall at age....3. Katie is just hitting 39. Poor kid will never be able to leave the kid section at theme parks!

When You Have Alot of Strong Personalities....



It's bound to happen if not several times a day.....more likely several times an hour around here. What am I talking about? With many personalities bursting at the seams here, someone, somehow, someway is getting their feelings smashed (or a body part) throughout our days. While we strive for peace and harmony....on one recent evening Katie was the recipient of an 'attack' by a sister unheard or seen by the parents. We turned trauma into happiness by bringing out the......nail polish. A mani and pedi for Katie Mei did the trick and she was feeling quite superior as she sauntered back to her sisters to show off her newly glossed fingers and toes (given with lots of hugs....because she's the lowest on the food chain...let's face it). Happy yet again.

Honestly, We Don't Know If We're Coming Or Going...

These are crazy nutty but glorious days! Lots going on! We can't decide if we're coming or going....or when to come up for air....as these pics reflect. We did take the time to capture the innocence of childhood on a recent trip out to Disney land. They will grow up way too soon!
