So I leave later than usual yesterday to pick up my kids from school. I pick up my daughter at School #1. We’re on the way to School #2 to pick up my oldest son (younger son is home puking in the kitchen sink). I look at the clock in the car. I left ten minutes late for School #1 and yet somehow I am five minutes early to School #2.
I said to my daughter, “I left late but we’re here early. How did that happen?”
She said, without skipping a beat, “Easy. You control time!”
By Jove, she’s right. What other explanation can there be? I’M LIKE A FREAKING PAX AGENT.
FYI, last night she suggested that she looks “too good for the bus” now. This is the latest scheme directed at getting out of school based on blinding beauty.
I have decided that I am too beautiful for toilet cleaning. (Apparently this can work because she did talk her daddy into driving her to school today. They usually take the bus in the mornings!)

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....

"Lamb-y, then whammy! Get some tickets to Miami! Snow is easing, but we're still freezing. It may be spring by the astronomer, but not by the thermometer. Mighty fine, then leonine."
