Ummm… Hellooooo??

We’re currently staying at a hotel with the kids… brought them along for one of our seminars again.
Today, there was a power outage for about an hour, so the kids and I were just kind of wandering around the hotel for a bit after waiting it out in our room for 20 minutes or so.

Field Trip Fun and Political Discussions

I had the kids out on another field trip today.  We spent the day at a gorgeous little settlement that’s set in the 1800’s.
They got to make toys from that era, as well as perform several of the chores that children would have regularly been expected to perform: hauling water up from the creek, scrubbing [...]

Kids Say the Darndest Things!

In the last few days, I’ve noticed a new saying that my 4-year old son is enjoying.
When he hears his charming mommy say something to him that he perceives as less-than-ideal, like “Please pick up your toys” or “Please speak nicely to your sister”, he now turns to me with an incredulous look on his [...]

Kids Say The Darndest Things!

Our kids have been on-the-go a bit more than usual for the past 3 weeks… vacationing along with another family (different schedules, different foods, etc.), then a very active vacation with mom and dad – LONG days full of adventure and exercise… and driving, then a day of whirlwind house cleaning to prepare for house [...]

“Hold the Veggies!”

A few nights ago, we were eating at one of our favorite local spots. We were sitting in a high-backed booth so I couldn’t see the people in front of or behind us. The only person I could see from the booth next to ours was the dad of that family, holding their VERY newborn [...]

“Mom, I was SHOCKED!”

Many times, I think the best part about the crazy things kids say is the way those things come clear out of the blue!
 
This morning, I was in the kitchen making breakfast for the kids. They had already been up for awhile… we had already chatted, had our family circle time, and they had been [...]

What Do Squirrels Drink?

The other day in the car, after a rare 30 seconds of silence, my 3 year old son broke the silence with a question.
 
“Mommy, what do squirrels drink?”
 
Shaken out of my brief moment of mental relaxation, I responded, “Gee honey. That’s a great question! (stalling) I guess they drink water, like most animals in the [...]

What do you mean, “You don’t drink milk?”

Yesterday I took the kids on a fantastic field trip! We went to Point Pelee National Park in Leamington, Ontario to see the Monarch butterflies as part of their annual migration.
 
We were fortunate enough to have the one-on-one attention of an incredibly knowledgable naturalist from the park. The kids ate him up! They were sucking [...]

Spanish Juggling

Since our daughter has had a couple years of Spanish classes in school, her younger brother has placed her on the pedestal of being our resident Spanish expert… a title she wears quite proudly, as she yields her dominating Spanish power over her little brother!
He can quite often be overheard asking his big sister, “What’s [...]
