Memorable Quotes

"Mom, I love you, but I don't want to know what you're made of."
- This is a quote from a few years back.  Heather was shopping, and they passed through the women's section with all of the bras and such.  Devin covered his eyes and said this.

What About Me?

Well, the kids have had the past few days off of school [yesterday and today].  So it got me thinking about those days of yore.  Man I miss those.  Especially when you go from New Year's day to Memorial day without a single company holiday.  This is one area where I think a lot of other countries have it right.
I mean, most of us work our fingers to the bone, day in and day out, and for what?  Most of the rest of the world already thinks we're lazy overweight Americans.  Working ourselves to death for the past 50 years hasn't yielded any different results.  So, here I am, petitioning for a few extra holidays per year.  At least 4, to fill in the gaps between New Years and Memorial Day and then between Labor Day and Thanksgiving.

Okay, now on to the family.  Devin's been running around with our camera, making videos about nothing [could he be the next Jerry Seinfeld?].  But, he's having a lot of fun, and really cracking himself up.  Brennan is just continuing to grow and learn.  It is so fun to see how interested he is in just about everything, except sleeping.  He's usually very upset when it comes to that time of day, where you know he needs it, his body knows he needs it, but he's just too curious to let himself "drift away" into sleep.
Lauryn is her sassy little self.  She is great.  We love to listen to her sing and use her imagination when she doesn't know anyone is listening.  She keeps us going, and has no problem sticking up for herself [thanks to a couple years of Devin trying to wrestle].  Well, gotta run for now . . .
