A Little Improv is Good for the Soul.....

I used to love the show "Who's Line Is It Anyway". One of my all-time favorite segments was called Greatest Hits. This is the part of the show where they ask a member of the audience what kind of profession he/she does and they make up random songs about that profession. In this particular episode they met a pizza delivery guy.
Wayne Brady and Chip Estin do an amazing job of shooting lyrics from the hip. I still laugh out loud everytime I watch this clip......enjoy:

My Sweet Valentine's Day

My hubby and my kids gave me a super great gift for Valentine's Day.....

They made my favorite breakfast of all time, Eggs Benedict. Eric actually prepared the hollandaise sauce from scratch and he bought gluten-free bread instead of english muffins, which I can't eat! It was super yummy.

Last night, Eric was in the card section at Wal-Mart and Emmy,age 4, found a card with 2 chimps that were kissing. She brings the card over to Eric and says, "Daddy, this is very inappropriate!" Lauren,6, reassures her by saying, "It's okay, Emily, they're both monkeys."

They decided on getting me some flowers instead. I'm glad they didn't spend $4 on an inappropriate monkey love card......:)

Happy Valentine's Day! Hope yours is special!!!!!

Who Has Time To Blog.....?

This working thing is for the birds. I'm thankful for the paycheck, but my blogging life has gone down the tubes. Plus, since Emmy is in school now, all my writing material has disappeared. Every once in a while I think of something cute or the kids say something that is worthy of posting, but by the time I get home to blog, I have forgotten what it was about.....sigh.



I'm not complaining. I am happy that I'm no longer at home cleaning poopy bottoms and feeding baby food to an infant.......I think......see, I had a sadness in my heart yesterday. Why, you ask? Because of this.......

Yesterday, this little guy was born. Who is he? His name is Micah. Isn't he precious? Maria, the girl I'm filling in for at work, gave birth to this sweet, perfect miracle. And you know what happened to me? I got the fever. This is the second time in about a month that I have internally grieved that I'm not going to have any more of these. It is such a joy to be happy for someone else, but the finality of knowing that this will never be you again is, well, for me, heartbreaking.

I never thought I would feel this way. I mean, I'm the person that, when asked, would say, "Heck no, I'm not having anymore kids! I took care of that after #3...." Now I'm realizing that it really is true.

I guess I will have to live vicariously through my friends who are still bearing children. At least that way I won't have milk leaking from my boobs.

Lost In Translation

This was the most recent comment left on my last post.

每次看完你的文章,總是回味許久,要經常發表喔。

I went to Google translate and this is what I got.....

"Every time reading your articles, always memorable for a long time, we should always express Oh."


I'm laughing out loud as I type this. I just think something is kind of lost in the translation somewhere.....

Thanks for stopping by and for the compliment.....I think....:)
