Tiny Giants

Suddenly, it seems like my kids are no longer little kids.   The boys are 4 now, and granted they have always been tall, but now they seem to have the bodies of little boys — not toddlers, anymore.  It’s funny, from up close, holding them and hugging them, they don’t seem so big, but then [...]

coupla thoughts

I was just driving my dad’s car which has XM satellite radio, and wondering, what are they going to call music from this decade?  There’s stations for music from the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s.  What will the music from 2000-2009 be called?  For that matter what will music from 2010-2019 be called?  I [...]

Books & Movies

I went see The Reader last night, with Kate Winslet, it was great.  A very intellectual, thoughtful movie.  We talked about seeing He’s Just Not That Into You but I kind of figured, if I’m going to the trouble of going out to see a movie, I should see something really, really good.  The Reader [...]

I haven’t been so good at updating lately, that’s part of the reason I started doing it this way on wordpress.com, hoping that if it were a tiny bit easier maybe I’d do it more.  I bet no one even reads this anymore.  If I were reading it, and I checked for a couple of [...]

Biter vs. Bitee

Here’s what happened today…..I took the boys and Aliza to the mall so they could release some energy at the playland there.  Unfortunately it was pretty crowded there, and AJ handles it pretty well, but Zack had a tough time.  I stopped him from biting a little girl in the arm, and I gave him [...]
