Puppy Dogs and Rainbows Friday: I do these posts mainly for me, to remind me on days that aren't so good, that my life is good, overall. I hope you also enjoy them. I invite you to do the same. Link up if you want (I really don't understand how that works) or comment to let me know what has made your life shiny this week. As moms (and you awesome dads that read this), we seldom have the time to see the sparkles in our fog of dirty diapers, whining toddlers and constant need by others. Moral: be sure to stop and smell the unicorns every once in a while.

OH MY FREAKING GOD! I want to pet a penguin, too!
ReplyDeleteWord of warning, Harlowe: they smell like dead fish and crap freely.
DeleteGoats and penguins in the same week?? Awesomesauce.
ReplyDeletel love the excellent parenting pic. Baby no more? Waaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!! I feel like this is happening to Rocky too! Luckily I really look forward having conversations with him and watching his little personality bloom, bit still...
ReplyDeleteOMG, it only gets better and better, and then one day you explode from all the awesomeness.
DeleteWhoa stay away from penguins. Got it.
ReplyDeleteWell, this week I sewed together knitted pieces for the first time.
Setting the bar low there.
Sewing and knitting are pretty much the high bar for me.
DeleteI think all kids should eat Cheerios off the floor. It makes their immune systems stronger. I mean, if my kids didn't eat Cheerios (and Goldfish, and graham crackers, and....) off the floor daily, I shudder to think about how sick they'd all be from germs outside our house.
ReplyDeleteFloor eating is a BLESSING we bestow on our kids. They'll be grateful someday.
Agreed. And when you said BLESSING, all I could think of was Christmas Vacation. "They want you to say grace. The BLESSING." Sorry, it's a sickness.
DeleteSo where is this magical place of petting zoo and free beer? I was going to say it is 2 great tastes that taste great together, but that really doesn't make sense. Either way, entertainment for kids and parents alike = win/win.
ReplyDeleteGranny's Farm. It is magical. And all free!
DeleteThe hubby saw Animal eating puffs of the floor the other night and said "great, mommy let's you eat of the floor now". I almost stabbed him in the throat (but I'm not ready to be a single parent yet) like kids need someone to "let" them eat off the floor! I said "be glad it's not the litter box and move on"
ReplyDeleteWow. Your husband must really have a death wish.
