Bite!

The day has finally came. Carson has been bitten by another child at school. He had upper and lower teeth marks in his arm. My first reaction was to find that little boy and bite him back! But I being a responsible mother will let the teachers take care of the bad little boy, which I know who it is. All the kids in Carson's room have their own personal issues. One boy is rough and is named the headbutter, Carson is the toy stealer, the blond kid named Adien (Sorry Kari) is the bitter. I only hope that Carson does not get bitten again or worse, starts to bite himself.

A memory of a great woman

Becky's Tea was a great success. Angie, Shannon and Tred once again has put together a great event. Thanks for inviting me every year. For those of you who do not know...


Rebecca Martin Hurst Scholarship

Scholarships for survivors of domestic violence, who have participated in the programs of UT’s Eberly Center for Women. Based on financial need and a short essay outlining the student’s educational or vocational goals.


The tea party is a wonderful way to remember Becky and raise money to send another woman through college.


Beautiful Weather-Beautiful Friends


The Townsends had a great weekend. On Saturday, Moby & the girls and Anna & Maddy came to visit! We played with the kids—went to zoo—eat a great dinner. Not to mention the beautiful 85+ sunny weather we had. On Sunday, Carson and I went into Toledo for Becky's Tea. It is always great when I can make it, the Tea is such a great cause and close to my heart. Again, I got to spend some time with great friends I don't get to see much. All in all it was a busy weekend, but worth every minute of it.


Props to my husband for doing the household chores while I was away in Toledo. I really do appreciate it.

15 months!


Carson is 15 months. Where does the time go? He is 65% in weight and 55% in height. So perfect. We are going to reduce binkie time to just naps and bedtime. It will be a rough couple of days, but it seems he has that thing in his mouth all the time. I just hope he doesn't start sucking his thumb!

Thoughts from Kandern


I really do love this boy but he hugs and lays on me all day. Sometimes I just run away...I don't know what he'll do next. He makes a lot of noise and his idea of petting is gentle hitting. I know the  boy means well but he is a crazy little baby. He also brings me my toys, gotta love him for that.
