Big Brother and I were in the kitchen today. He had told me that he wanted to watch a “big movie.” He brought an Elmo movie to me. Remembering the time that he had scratched that DVD up, I asked him, “Does that movie work?” He replied, “Daddy Fixed it! He’s a good “fixie-man!”

Hello Again!
I’ve been consumed lately with all that goes on in families. That coupled with a lack of anything to talk about. Imagine that–me, speechless! I know…you’re thinking…what could possibly be wrong. Really nothing right now.
I have had a couple things happen that I had the fleeting thought of “Oh, I should blog about that…” Things [...]
