Jack’s version of Proverbs 1:7: “Dah feah of the Lauwd is dah beginnin’ of knowledge; fools disguise wisdom and destruction.” Love it. <3
Sometimes Caleb alarms me when answering simple questions–
ME: Have you done this before?
CAL: No, at least not while here on planet earth.

Is your kid too sick to go out? I made myself a quick reference and thought I’d share it: stephlewis.com/2013/09/too-si…
You know those times when one of your kids is sick and you’re not sure if you should take them out in public or not? Well, it was making me batty and everyone seemed to have a different opinion on the topic. Know what I did? I researched it on the interwebs and put together a simple printout for me to stick in a cabinet. Now, when a kid is sick, I’ll check their symptoms against this handout and my decision will be a snap. Hope it helps you too!
Note: I listed my references, complete with URL, on the bottom of the handout. I’m not a doctor, I just compiled answers from these awesome doctors.
I don’t have a cohesive baby book for any of my kids. When they move out they’ll get a huge “pile” of digital files (photos, writing, soundbites, movies, etc.) and a small box with mementos. I’ve just never been into scrapbooking or anything related. So, in that spirit, when I found this piece of paper with Louritta and Jack’s weight and height stats from long ago, I knew I had to record it here or it’d go disintegrating into the abyss.

Lou Lou has just sorted several bookshelves into two piles: books that have horses on the covers and books that are deemed unworthy.
