Mysteries of the ALDOT

A lot of stuff happens every four years. The Olympics, the Presidential Election, and I have to get my driver’s license renewed. I actually just now realized that it fell on the same four year schedule as the previous two things – maybe that will help me remember next go-round. Anyway, so Ali and I […]

What Mommies Don’t Do

I’m feeling pretty decent considering, and I’ve been dying to post this video from last night. It’s dusk and in the car, which is why it starts out dark, then gets lighter. She was talking to herself, and it was cracking us up, so I videoed a bit of it and prompted her to say […]

Finally: Proof that She’s My Child!!
