WHERE HAVE ALL THE STORIES GONE?


If you are reading this then I am...

Wait, where HAVE I beeeeeeeen????

I am a bit embarrassed to admit, that lately I have been so busy I have forgotten to:

1.) get out my camera

2.) notice the stories

3.) clean my toilets

Sometimes I catch cutsey videos on my phone.


Or a blurred image.


But those aren't really stories are they?  You know, they aren't necessarily rip-roaring great updates for the out-of-town fam.

Because despite the shackles on the couch, their increase in age has increased our extracurricular life.

And here's a shocker: The increase in my age has suddenly left me needing a lot more naps.

Good Golly, I'm either dragging the troupe around or collapsed on the gritty kitchen floor, much too exhausted to defend myself against a toddler pterodactyl.

Ah, the good ol' days when I was stuck in the house with three little 'uns, no Netflix, a slow internet connection to my PC, only basic TV channels and Mr. Right was working his poor hiney off in residency. 

We were, what I call, "bored" and therefore every little thing was worth writing about. 

Well, we weren't really boooored. . . but, well, yeah, we kind of were.

Now we aren't bored so much as we are borING.

And despite my procrastination these past few minutes I STILL cannot think of something worth mentioning.

Well, there is a teeny secret we are keeping from the kids.

It is actually kind of a big secret.

It involves suitcases, and an airplane and Nana and Papa and sunshine, and a mouse.

I have been secretly packing on the sly these past few days.

In fact, I am in great danger of spoiling the surprise by mentioning this - which is why, now that I've finished mentioning this, I am actually going to delay the posting of this entry.

Until we are actually in the air.  On our way.

And if you are reading this then it means I (and Mr. Right) have pulled off one of the coolest parenting heists ever.

We rock!!
